Review: Ovi Maps Racing

9 replies · 3,828 views · Started 03 February 2010

Released for free yesterday (in theory, for a limited period, though as you'll see from the review, it wouldn't work that well as a commercial title anyway), Ovi Maps Racing is a Maps-derived top-down racing game from Nokia. Ewan's been giving it the review once-over here on Ovi Gaming and, while, generally impressed by the title, feels it's let down by the lack of an integrated track sharing system and by the ultimately limited gameplay.

Read on in the full article.

I think it's a mistake to take the game too seriously, it's just a bit of fun. These phones don't do a lot more.

Anyway, Ovi Maps Racing doesn't come with a Xenon flash. When are Nokia going to wake up and start giving away freen Xenon flashes with their free games?

Huh? Eh?? What??? What does Xenon flash have to do with a game? And how can you "give away" Xenon flash with a game? Are you thinking straight? And are you the guy who commented on the e52 firmware update article asking for a xenon flash in the firmware update??

I didn't want to write this, but I don't think you have your head screwed on straight. Do you know what a Xenon flash is???

He's mocking the Nokia fanbase by saying that they don't like anything unless it has a xenon flash... It's a joke

Its only the N86 or imaging flagship that I expect XENON. Expecting Xenon flash in the N86 is like expecting adobe flash in the iPad. Sure you can do without it but a way better experience with it. only 5th edition for this game, oh well no more s60 3rd love.
