4×4 EVO 2

4×4 Evo 2, also known as 4×4 Evolution 2, is a racing video game developed by Terminal Reality for the PlayStation 2, Xbox, GameCube, Microsoft Windows, and Mac. It is the sequel to 4×4 Evolution. The game’s race courses are primarily in extreme environments such as deserts, canyons, and other off-road locales. Players are allowed to customize their vehicle to their liking with a variety of engines, suspensions, wheels, tires, and other aftermarket parts and modifications.

The game was released in 2001 and 2002 across various regions and platforms; while the PS2 version was released exclusively in Europe, the GameCube and Mac versions were only released in North America.

Gameplay

The player may also play through missions set in various locations, which typically revolve around locating various objects in the area. Each location has multiple missions, which revolve around a single profession or storyline. Missions between areas are not intertwined, however, and are unrelated to the racing portion of career.

Sviluppo

The game was announced in February 2000.

Accoglienza

The GameCube, PC, and Xbox versions of 4×4 EVO 2 received “mixed or average reviews” according to the review aggregation website Metacritic. Jeff Lundrigan of NextGen called the latter console version “A case of too many options and not enough gameplay to back it up.” Steve Bauman of Computer Giochi Magazine gave the PC version two stars out of five, saying, “As with the original, the multigiocatore is actually solid, it’s really quite attractive, and there’s all that… stuff… in it, but this is really more of a downgrade from a rather mediocre original game than a ‘take it to the next level’ sequel.”
