Monster Truck Championship

besides the monster jam series being great for what it is and also the latest iteration - showdown being okey, monster truck championship gives me that feel i have missed before. you really feel the trucks and you feel how ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ heavy they are. on higher difficulty and full damage type, one lil mistake ♥♥♥♥♥ you up completely and that is how it should be. for freestyle mode you actually need to practice more than i imagined to get some points but it is tons of fun to get the hang of it. also MTC has the edge when it comes to engine sounds imo. that roar pumps you up every single time. customization is fine for what it is and all you need is there. quickplay and career mode + a practice mode which is basically the free roam like in monster jam, but without the weird goals you can achieve like collecting logos etc. there is also a multiplayer but im sure it is dead in these type of games and i wouldn't play it anyway, because we know how that would end up with all those weird people out there... MTC has cockpit view and a fov slider for it. always a big + in my book. the game uses the unreal 4 engine and looks the best among the monster truck games. the older monster jams also run on unreal 4 but are really ugly and showdown runs on the unreal 5. it looks good and runs fine if you consider how bad most devs make use of that engine. i play with xbox 360 controller and it works flawless. small negative points is some missing QoL stuff like instant replay after a race. basically every racer has that... instead all you see is the stadium cam filming either cars driving around or just standing there after a race. all in all a top tier monster truck game, even with nacon as publisher... it seems the audience is too small for them to consider ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ this game up with their greed, as they usually do. so thx to all the people who don't like monster trucks :D oh and the most important point - bought the game for 2 bucks in the key store. cheers
