You can also get your rides a new lick of paint and some graphics at the garage as well as performance upgrades, you can get whole body vinyl kits giving you cars artwork all over, neon lights to sit under the car providing an eerie light coming out from under your bumpers, stickers to plaster the car with on all sides and more.
#SRS STREET RACING SYNDICATE REVIEW UPGRADE#
There is a problem with the upgrade purchasing system that struck me as just stupid though, it is never made clear exactly what each upgrade is going to do for you and the performance of your car as you browse through them and I found myself just giving up trying to find out in the end and just started buying the most expensive bits I could afford at the time. Once you have chosen a car that you like and can afford from the assortment of real-life car dealers and their machines provided in game you may begin to spend money at the garage on an assortment of performance enhancing upgrades from new engine parts to weight reduction and some interesting things inbetween such as nitro canisters for that short lived but incredible burst of speed that only nitro seems to be able to provide.

In SRS the main 'story' mode is the Street Mode, in Street Mode you begin by tearing around in a nice car on behalf of a driver who is unable to make it to the race which then gets taken off you after you win with it leaving you with the prize money to sort yourself a new ride, and here begins your journey into the world of car engine fiddling. Well in a nutshell you buy a car, win some money with it by racing in it, spend the money on some upgrades, win more money etc but lets see how this is all presented to the player.
#SRS STREET RACING SYNDICATE REVIEW SERIES#
I could be describing any one of about ten different games with that sentence and it is indeed true that the custom car street racing genre has spawned a whole heap of games in recent years with the popular Need for Speed and Gran Turismo franchises generally accepted to reside near the top of the pile.Īn interesting contender for the street racer throne is Street Racing Syndicate from developer Eutechnyx, published by Namco who themselves are not new to the idea of sending shiny cars screaming around city streets as their infamous Ridge Racer series attests. In development for all next generation console systems, SRS is scheduled for release in 2003.You must be familiar with the concept by now, buy an ordinary street car and use it to win races for money, then spend said money back on said car in order to boost the cars performance and win more challenging races for more money. The after-market upgrades are licensed and customizable, and vehicles take realistic damage hits. In illegal races, police may intervene to hand out tickets, impound cars, or throw players in jail.
Players choose to race in illegal or officially sanctioned races. In SRS players begin by creating their own street racing characters, then set off to make names for themselves in the first of three cities. "Every race has a lot at stake, including pink slips, cash, and, of course, the ladies' respect." "With SRS, we have captured the essence of underground racing - high stakes, high speed, and customization of realistically detailed cars," said Trip Hawkins, chief executive officer, The 3DO Company. The game is being developed by racing game specialist Eutechnyx Ltd., which has developed such popular titles as F1 World Grand Prix 2000, 007 Racing and Le Mans 24 Hours. Scheduled for release in 2003, "SRS" captures the heart of street racing culture, and includes extensive car customization, police intervention, and high stakes competition. The 3DO Company today announced that Street Racing Syndicate is currently in development for the PlayStation(R)2 computer entertainment system, the Xbox(TM) video game system from Microsoft, and the Nintendo GameCube(TM) system.
