Edit: - Please add 10 points onto the score that flashes up as I have completely added it up wrong! It's been a very long, stressful week which, apparently, robbed me of the capacity to add 5 numbers together! Sincere apologies. Glen
As I say in the video, I know nothing about the Monster Jam events or Monster trucks in general so apologies for any references missed, etc, but I know a good or bad game when I see one. Which is this? Let's find out.....
You should check out Lee O'Donnell's epic front flip that happened in 2018. I'm not overly into Monster Truck rallies myself but that clip is pure energy.
@@WaterMusic34 Awesome clip. Have seen it several times. Hits it in the last bit of his run.
@@nerdgiant4101 Awesome man! I know, talk about last second.
I have a soft spot in my heart for monster trucks, and I didn’t expect this to be any good, but oh well. It’s nice to know for sure that it isn’t worth it.
Hope your next week isnt so stressful. Your videos always help to relieve some of my weekly mental pressure.
Maybe its my eyes or I am just easily pleased, but the graphics whilst not outstanding, look ok to me.
Yeah I thought they looked good lol
I thought the same
Me too. I think it looks nice
High price is probably the cost of the official license. Kudos for reviewing a game that is hard to relate too. For us a yanks it would probably be hard to evaluate a rugby or cricket game.
IS there a cricket games? Even as a Yank I've become enamored with cricket recently.
There is one, yes. Cricket 19 is on the Switch. Glen
@@SwitchUpYt You’re kidding me! 😂
What about Monster Jelly?
I will say polish or no, the concept of riding a monster truck across a rugged open world map sounds like an excellent concept!
Youre in fire Mark! Thanks so much for your reviews, specially loved the skyforge one lmal
Awesome really was looking forward to this revie thanks SwitchUp!!
I was a co-worker with the people who ported this to the Switch ^^ The issue with the visuals is that it uses Unreal Engine 4 and it scales poorly on Switch. Well most UE4 games did, even though they theoretically work on the Switch you have to always make a lot of cuts in visuals.
“Trucking Good Time” 😂
Sorry for the tangent but Rise: Race the Future had an update recently that adds split screen multiplayer and a 60fps performance mode.
Ouch! It's a shame no one has remastered or done a sequel to the racing game 'Pure', I adored that on the 360.
Pure was a cool game, especially since it was free with my xbox 360 back in the day lol
" A chocolate wrapper on a summers breeze"
Worthy of John Cooper Clarke
Keep up the good work
This looks really fun actually, especially as a quick handheld time killer but yeah, sale price only.
Are there any decent Monster Truck games released over the past decade? The last one I got was the first Monster Jam game all the way back in 2007.
Definitely waiting for a sale next year
💥✌️
Is the Grim Reaper in this game? That was my favorite Monster Truck as a kid
Good review. Thanks for the information. Very helpful.
This one is not for me but I still appreciate the review. Thanks Glen
Is there a way to control the truck with only one joy con
Looks great on xsx
I didn’t have much of an interest in this one, but it’s a shame that it isn’t really up to standard for those who might have been interested. Maybe it’ll get a discount sometime though. Thanks for the review.
@SwitchUp The part with the missing commentary is the BIGGEST downsite for me if you watch the real monster jam they could have made sooo much more out of this game. like commentary maybe even the ability to WATCH the AI Race the Freestyle Track so you can see how these Scores are Achived. That would be so cool, but in general there is no monster truck game with commentary and it feels so lifeless and blend. such a shame ( btw im from EU) here we dont into that monster truck thing either but ive watched out of curiosity some of there shows here on youtube and realy damn cool stuff. greetings and keep the videos coming :)
Went to a monster truck rally, thank god they gave out free earplugs. :) Might wait to see if they do a patch on this one. Cheers guys.
How do you save progress
Is this any easier and less of a GRIND than the 1st game? Have the load times been improved? Its a cool game but the first one; gets very difficult for the casual racing fans in my family, confusing courses, LONG load times. Might check this on PS5. Switch load times are too long for me.
Floaty physics really should be sorted during play testing. A real shame as any waypoint racing in an open world - such as Smugglers Run or FUEL way back when - could have been great. And wow what that price.... just way too much.
It´s sad to see that there isn´t any more new Monster Truck games such as fun like Madness 1, 2 or 64 or even Path of Destruction and Urban Asssault
For fellow US folks, this is already just $33.99 at Wal Mart 👍
My 6 year old has been asking me about the first one and now this(I think he's had a sneaky run through the eshop...) If they were at a fiver I'd probably say go for it but I don't think I'd be happy paying full whack for them.
My son will love this as long as he gets to play as grave digger he will lose his little mind
Good video
Thanks bro
Nah in real life the announcing at the stadium events is part of the fun
Yeah... Not for me. Not many good racers on Switch sadly.
Will you cover WRC 9? I wonder how it compares to WRC 8, although I won't get my hopes too high
Literally the only two monster trucks I know are Gravedigger and Bigfoot ._. that's also the full extent of my monster truck knowledge. Eh game looks neat enough for those who are into monster trucks I suppose.
My childhood self is screaming from the inside to grab this game, yet the adult in me has unfortunately moved past this one. Great trip down memory lane though.
To anyone curious why Americans would watch a Monster Jam show, is that its just clean fun. When you're a kid its cool to see these giant character type trucks jumping through the air and crushing cars. It's something for families to attend like a WWF wrestling show.like "O Boy what are these Americans doing now...", but its mostly
I think it's supposed to be 55 percent... Not that it really matters. 😁
I don't know how I managed to mess adding the score up so badly! Sorry! Thanks for pointing it out mate. Glen
@@SwitchUpYt You got it right the first time. It's a heap of crap, and let the score truly reflect what you say
It the entire game on the cart of an additional download.
Currently on special for 8 bucks
👊
Just makes me want a new Blast Corps on the switch with better graphics. Bug vehicles destroying stuff.
Blast Corps was brilliant! Glen
@@SwitchUpYt really underappreciated game. We need a sequel.
With the physics being off and some of the track design being punishing for going out of bounds too easily I would say this is a monstrous let down.
Just get monster truck champions. More polish and is more accurate to the physics. Also its a sim making it more realistic but still...also it looks better.
It is a epic
Chocolate wrapper....summers breeze??? You Brits. Lol
(Here in the states we'd say; a used scratcher or a receipt.)
I don't think there's been a good monster truck game since Monster Truck Madness in the 90's. Such a shame.
Doesn’t really sound interesting, it’s unfortunate as I have fond memories of monster trucks as a child and of off road racing racing from the Super Nintendo, Baja California.
Bad physics for a monster truck game, let alone a car game, is no go immediately imo
monster trucks really are a strange cultural anomaly of america
Looks like this is a monstrous truck up
I'll leave quietly.
it actually looks worse than the first one. I got the first one for my little boy who had the rc car the toys and its okay but i got it on sale but he loved it. Fingers crossed in may we can go over border to germany to see the show in frankfurt. And wait for my ears to bleed with him. but this looks worse than first the first is mehhhhhh but if you like the monster trucks on sale its worth it. but this dosent look much diffrence and from video looks worse.
Get back to CQ duty.
You lost me any monster truck! So... I think that's a no from me!
Yea.. but you cant Run OVER Barny, in the game... =L
The game looks much better on Xbox. Its a fun game. Not a game of the year contender. Lol 😆
Sad. The hype that could have been generated if this has casting would be awesome. As Glen had said, bland gameplay. Nothing new here, just an addition to the library.
This honestly looks like shit.
Reminds me of smugglers run graphics for the ps2 with the same framerate.
And those races really seem bloody awful.
Looks like a ps2 game at best. Terrible.
If you honestly think that... You really haven't played a PS2 game in awhile lol
