Spikeout: Battle Street

"This arcade-style brawler actually sounds pretty wicked on paper, but unfortunately, the game itself is lousy."

"...you can see most of what there is to see in Spikeout in the span of a rental. Only truly hardcore fans will need to own their own copy; as competent and polished as it is for the genre, it's also a throwback."

"The single-player mission, graphics, dialog, music, animation, AI, and level design are all so shockingly retro in all of the worst senses, that one wonders if this game weren't really designed about 20 years ago and just recently uncovered from some sort of lost chest of unwanted arcade titles that never got the green light."
