Rating Summary

This is a racing game in which players can select realistic cars and drive them through city streets. Players can compete in traditional races, perform "Drift Challenge" stunts, and smash into any number of street signs, fruit stands, cacti, or fire hydrants to earn points—all while avoiding traffic and the police. Law enforcement are always out to stop a good race (in this game), and try to prevent players from racing by blocking the roads or smashing into vehicles to slow them down. Thus, one of the major factors for the E-10+ rating (distinct from most E-rated racing games) is users' ability to evade these patrol cars, even crash into them, which sometimes knocks them into the air. No one gets hurt, but Authority does get challenged. The game also includes musical tracks, a handful of which are suggestive (e.g., "Give my white girl skank a chance" and "I'm in the Marriot with maid Marion").
