Description
Get ready for the next wave in watercraft racing! Splashdown Rides Gone Wild, the sequel to the critically acclaimed and best-selling racing game of 2001, offers an even wilder experience than the original. Inspired by the spectacle and excitement of theme parks and thrill rides, Splashdown Rides Gone Wild has you blasting through huge, imaginative locales with amazing sights and startling events around every corner. Featuring a gorgeous, stylized look, this isn’t just racing anymore… it’s cinematic racing! Splashdown’s famously beautiful water has evolved as well: bigger waves, swift currents, and treacherous downhill rivers. There are also plenty of tricky, technical Indoor Stadium courses, plus a Freestyle stunt mode, an all-new Technical Time Trials mode for hardcore racers, and more. Combining larger-than-life arcade fun with the realistic physics and controls that THQ’s Rainbow Studios is known for, this game blows everything else out of the water!
