The big question that's on everyone's minds seems to be -- "how does Splashdown stack up against Nintendo's Wave Race: Blue Storm on the GameCube or Eidos Interactive's Wave Rally for PlayStation 2?" The answer? Well, there's not really a simple answer, especially when it comes to comparing Splashdown to either Wave Race or Wave Rally.
Both of those games are Jet Ski games while Splashdown is a Sea-Doo-based racing game and with this simple little dissimilarity comes different racing mechanics as you must lean forward for more speed with Jet Skis and must pull back to hydroplane with Sea-Doos to get more speed. Wave Race and Wave Rally also require you to master the waves in order to win, while Splashdown is less about the waves and more about doing tricks to gain speed and learning to best maneuver your craft in the water.
Subsequently, while they are all on water, Splashdown is really an entirely different racing experience than the other two titles (those can be compared directly, though…). It actually probably compares more directly to Rainbow Studios first PlayStation 2 title, ATV Offroad Fury, as it has the same basic feel of that game even though you're on completely different surfaces.
If you must have some sort of comparison between the three games to make you happy, then I'll give you this -- Splashdown has hands-down the best looking water of the three. The waves are bigger in the other two, but no water in a videogame has looked this amazing.
All of the comparisons aside, what really matters is that Splashdown is a highly enjoyable racing game and one that's definitely worth experiencing. The gameplay is highly addictive, it has a high-level of challenge and the water never fails to impress. Even after having played in the area of 20 hours of this game, I still find myself distracted by just how good it looks
allerdings hat splashdown 8.8 bekommen, waverace 9.2.
