Destruction Derby

'Driv3r'

[PS2 / XBOX] [AUSTRALIA] [MAGAZINE] [2004]

"Sadly, Driver 3 is often more a combination of frustration and rote learning of levels than awesome driving. In the end it seems that there has been too much emphasis on technological additions and slick intros instead of revolving the game around the frantically high speeds and death defying manoeuvres that players crave so much. VERDICT: Some great driving elements but runs too linearly and contains too many frustrations to build into a satisfying package." ~Andrew Bulmer, Australian GamePro (August/September 2004, #05)

Destruction Derby

‘Shadow of the Beast’

[SMS] [UK] [MAGAZINE[ [1992]

While very young, Aarbron was kidnapped and enslaved by the Priests of the Beast Lord. He grew up on drugs made to destroy his own will and turn him into the Beast Messenger, a powerful creature serving Maletoth, The Beast Lord himself. He did his job, until one day he noticed a man about to be sacrificed in a ritual, his face triggering ancient memories. As the sacrificial knife descended into the man's body, Aarbron recognizes his father's face. As his father dies in the altar, memories of his childhood and tormented past at the hands of the Beast Lord emerged, and as feelings of hate over his captors took over him, he swore revenge and fled the temple, knowing the road to avenge his father and redemption would be hard. ~MobyGames
