I really enjoy Powerdrome for PS2. It reminds me a lot of the Star Wars Pod Racing game for N64, which I also enjoyed. It's a pretty simple racing game - X to go, □ to brake. Your vehicle can accumulate damage, which you can repair (at a cost to speed). Drafting and ramming are both possible, and boosts can be accumulated by not crashing into stuff. The game is surprisingly long (there are a TON of races) and there are a lot of bonus items to unlock. The 2-player mode is also fun. My main warning would be this: if you like complex physics, you might not enjoy this game. It's got pretty basic handling. Also, if you like games with powerful vehicle customizing tools, Powerdrome doesn't have anything like that. If you're a graphics junky, be forewarned that the graphics aren't anything spectacular - good enough for a typical racing game, but nothing that'll blow you away. I would recommend this to any casual racing fans.Read full review
I bought this game because it was $1.58 with free shipping. I also wanted a racing game, that was dirt cheap, LOL!!! This game resembles the Star Wars racing that Anakin Skywalker did on the 1st new S.W. movie, but on a several different settings of course. A good point is that the vehicle DOES take damage, after a while of damage you cause, the vehicle blows up, then resets fast! Until you beat the 1st level by outrunning people you can't go to the next level and new setting course. The graphics are descent, but I haven't owned any ps2 games besides Dragon Ball Z to compare. Some levels have better graphics than others. I actually haven't finished the game yet, LOL! Besides the tournament, you can race against a friend.
I LOVE IT. MY KIDS WOULD PLAY IT ALL DAY LONG. THAT MENT THEY WEREN T FOLLOW ME AROUND My main warning would be this: if you like complex physics, you might not enjoy this game. It's got pretty basic handling. Also, if you like games with powerful vehicle customizing tools, Powerdrome doesn't have anything like that. If you're a graphics junky, be forewarned that the graphics aren't anything spectacular - good enough for a typical racing game, but nothing that'll blow you away. The game makes drome racing seem pretty fun with the career mode being fun.
i like the powerdrome game its a good game i think anyone who buys it will really like i dont see anything bad about it
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: New
I like that the game is very easy to play, with different race tracks, drivers, and modes to play on. The game has good graphics, and is futuristic, even having your blade (vehicle) taking on damage.
