Total Club Manager 2004

Total Club Manager 2004 will give you the chance to create an empire by designing, upgrading, and managing a brand new city. We have seen some of the improvements to this game over last year's first installment, and though the improvements have been minimal, they're all still worth the time and effort to upgrade.

All your city's construction and development needs will now be represented in a grand strategy map, which can be navigated through by selecting individual buildings and establishing them as structures in a city by clicking on them, or by clicking on them. Adding to this map estate is the ability to build your own city and move the players, making a transfer from another city to another or your city instantly accessible to both.

In addition to providing a great deal of replay value for the game's player base, some gamers may feel that the game's developer has neglected the offline mode in favor of the new offline mode. Indeed, if you've ever played the online mode in the previous F1 game, you may have heard that offline mode is nothing short of a game changer, as the way it's implemented is extremely different from the offline mode, which has essentially been replaced with a mod that makes all of the AI drivers on the racetrack play similarly to their real counterparts. This means that, even in offline mode, you can choose to play against some of the real drivers in the game and learn from them and build up your garage. It's very similar to the other versions of the game, except that in offline mode, the AI driver has no performance advantage over the real driver.

Playing online with AI drivers isn't just about bringing your team into the race, as in offline mode, players can take part in a variety of racing and assists. When playing online, you'll be able to simply participate in the race against your friends or even the computer. It's quite a bit of fun to watch the replays and compare progress to those that you've made in offline mode, but the fact that the game doesn't implement any new assists doesn't exactly set off the buzz.

The online game is broken up into four different modes. Tournaments is your standard practice mode that's designed to test your skills against all other drivers in a series of races. Training mode will allow you to practice against other drivers or hone your skills against specific opponents. The practice mode is basically the career mode, which is set up like the single-player game, in which you play a series of races in a racing car or circuit, all the way to the finish line. You'll earn cash that you can use to purchase new parts for your car or customize the exterior of your car. The races will also be structured in such a way that there are only five of the five courses available, making it quite the long haul. In addition, you'll find that your victory isn't necessarily based on skill, since the cars will always be a tougher competition.

Graphically, OutRun 2 looks extremely solid. The cars themselves feature an impressive amount of detail and have a clean, crisp look to them that isn't an issue with the game's model. There are a good amount of subtle detailing in each of the environments, and the game is very much looking to fit into the Xbox's tight frame rate. The various lighting effects work well in the game's day and night conditions, and the cars themselves are impressive. In addition, the game features a solid amount of eye candy that complements the game's solid visuals. We're especially pleased with the amount of detail on some of the cars and the highly detailed models that they feature. OutRun 2 seems to feature a strong variety of tracks, and they offer a good amount of variety. While OutRun 2 looks to offer some fairly intense races, some of the tracks we've seen so far are certainly an eye-catching addition to the Xbox's graphical package. In addition to the impressive graphical detail, the environments in OutRun 2 have also got some extra touches, such as a slightly cleaner look to them. The vehicles in the game have also gotten some attention, and they feature some nice eye candy. The courses feature subtle lighting effects, such as a sun effect that gets on the screen and sparks that clip through cars. In addition, you'll find a good assortment of effects in the cars, which are complemented by well-done effects such as particle effects. While the games we've seen thus far have been visually impressive, OutRun 2's look will likely be appreciated by fans of the series.

The sound in the game is coming along nicely, as OutRun 2 is shaping up to offer a solid assortment of voices and audio. The game's audio has also been bumped up considerably to offer a more varied experience. While the score in the game is still being tweaked, the sound in the game is looking good and will offer a more dynamic tone to the racing experience.
