tl;dr get it on sale, it's good but pretty short (3 cups, 9+16+25 races, 3-5 laps, mostly 3). This is a dirt rally game, so the focus is on slippery serpantine hell rather than going fast on straight stretches of the road. It's very punishing, sometimes unfairly so (e.g. mild collision at slow speed + immovable object = comical car crash, shortcuts are more threatening than helpful, insane physics, etc) but it's not...
Nostalgia at its finest right here. It delivers if you remember it delivering all those years ago. Its also ridiculously refreshing to not have a 3rd party launcher, or have to connected to internet, or have to make it account. Old games over new games any day!
