CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
The beta demo of TrackMania only earned a 4 rating on Download.com due to stability problems, but this Power Up demo makes up lost ground. TrackMania provides a truly addictive online and offline arcade-racing experience. The ease of creating tracks, joining Internet games, or challenging a buddy makes it unique. The generous amount of free content is icing on the cake.The game consists of Solo, Multiplayer, and Network racing, plus a separate track editor. The Solo portion of the gameplay consists of Puzzles and Races. In Puzzles, you create a course (including mandatory checkpoints), then drive it under a certain time to earn medals. Those medals translate into "coppers," which earn you more parts for creating new tracks. In Races, you drive a premade track as fast as possible. Multiplayer mode lets multiple gamers compete on the same machine, and Network mode allows for LAN or Internet play. Finding and joining games is wonderfully simple, but the number of games available varies significantly depending on the time of day. This Power Up demo includes all the new construction blocks from the Power Up expansion pack, along with snow and off-road races for the first time in a demo.
Publisher's description
From Nadeo :In this demo players can race on three tracks with new Power Up features for Racing and Puzzle modes. Players also can design and construct custom tracks with the track editor.

Summary: Give this demo about 15 minutes to really get to understand it. Especially fun is the puzzle mode, once you get past the first few stages. I don't know what everybody is talking about, this game being slow on their computer or not working, it runs g... read more >>

Summary: I have 512 MB of RAM and ample hard drive space plus a GeForce FX graphics card, and TrackMania was choppy and sometimes crashed.
