description: Fast-paced, arcade-style driving action hits the Dreamcast in the form of Ubi Soft's f1i Speed Devils f0i0 --only this time, it's personal. The first thing you'll notice is the game's emphasis on presenting recognizable rivals throughout the races. Instead of competing against faceless "computer" foes, you meet 17 rival drivers with distinct personalities; these defining characteristics come out in their driving tendencies. Yu Kioto's calm demeanor, for example, is reflected in his calculated, mistake-free driving. It's a cool feature that gives the single-player game depth: you not only have to handle wacky obstacles as you roar around the track, but you have to handle each driver differently. f1i Speed Devils f0i0 sports three gameplay modes: arcade, championship, and multiplayer. While the multiplayer mode lets you take on a friend in several different challenges and races, the meat of the gameplay is in the championship mode. The goal here is to progress through several driving classes. Each race nets you prize money, augmented by any side bets or special missions you've agreed to perform. Use the money to buy a better car or improve the one you've got; all the upgrades help you win more races, which moves you farther up the ranks and closer to your eventual goal of taking down the mysterious Driver X. With wild tracks and gameplay that radiates with personality, f1i Speed Devils f0i0 is an expansive and delightful racer. f1i --Sajed Ahmed f0i0 f2b Pros: f0b0 pardtx720tx1280tx1840tx2400tx2960tx3520tx4080tx4640tx5200tx5760tx6320tx6880tx7440li720fi-260qlqnatural cf0 'a5 Weather effects during racing, including rain, snow, fog, and even seasonal changes 'a5 2-player versus mode lets you take on a friend in split-screen racing action 'a5 The deep championship mode will keep you busy for a long time 'a5 Realistic reflections on the cars and refined texturing around the tracks pardtx560tx1120tx1680tx2240tx2800tx3360tx3920tx4480tx5040tx5600tx6160tx6720qlqnatural cf0 f2b Cons: f0b0 pardtx720tx1280tx1840tx2400tx2960tx3520tx4080tx4640tx5200tx5760tx6320tx6880tx7440li720fi-260qlqnatural cf0 'a5 If you're into driving realism, the wacky cars and tracks may not appeal 'a5 At times, cars can seem detached from the driving surface pardtx560tx1120tx1680tx2240tx2800tx3360tx3920tx4480tx5040tx5600tx6160tx6720qlqnatural cf0
