Reception

The GameCube version received "mixed" reviews according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.[1] Nintendo Power gave the European import a mixed review while the U.S. version was still in development.[12] GameSpy called the GameCube version "solid", but said that it could not compete against stronger competition like Colin McRae, particularly in the graphics.[8] In Japan, where the PlayStation 2 version was ported and published by Success on March 27, 2003, Famitsu gave it a score of 29 out of 40.[4]
