PixelJunk Racers '2nd Lap' rated by ESRB

I got the original and while it's a little fun for an evening, it's not the kind of thing I'd expand on unless this really brings a new experience to the game. If it's more of the same on new tracks then I'll make due without it.

Racers was the only one that didn't strike me as really good right away. I played the demo for 15 or 20 minutes and tht was about it. Looking forward to the Shooter expansion, but even more so to PJ Dungeons. Shooter was good, but I actually didn't like it as much as Monsters or Eden.

I love the gameplay, and I liked it explored ad nauseum in the original installment. If they can come up with even more stuff to do, count me in.

On a side note: the art director should be fired. Really: there is no cohesion between in-game graphics and the rest (which by the way remind me of flash games or casual games with low production values). Also, some of the awful vector art used to represent the game modes has absolutely nothing to do with it (a MONKEY? Seriously?).

Anyway, the game is well programmed, me and my friends find it fun, and the graphics, where they matter, are good. (Well, the marketing team would also love better outside game art).

never got PJR...just didn't stand out to me like the other 3 titles have....but I suppose it wont hurt to buy the bundle for like $10 just to try it out and support Q-Games

Well after reading the comments I am relieved that I am not the only one that this game did not WOW.

< strikethrough > for humor effect.

I'm hoping they do a bundle deal with the original, then I might buy it. Like others here, the demo didn't impress me, though I'm a fan of the other PixelJunks.

Or, as my IRL friends call it, PickleJunk.

There used to be a game like this in the 90s, does anybody remember what it was called? Similar style where it wass top view 2-d car racing but no traffic, with 4 cars (blue,red, green and yellow)

I checked both of them on google images, its not any of them,but thanks for trying.
Actually the pixeljunk racers look very similar to what im talking about lol

I'm surprised, since they haven't even patched in trophy support (and possibly even rumble support, can't remember) to Racers. I figured they saw it as the "we-don't-talk-about-that-one" game.

I really hope this means trophies.

Also, why not "PixelJunk Racers Encore"?

It was a pretty good party game, though I wonder how many people expected a racing game instead of what it really is.
