Razor Freestyle ScooterTitle: Razor Freestyle Scooter
Company: Crave Entertainment
Type of Game: Sports, Scooter
System Requirements: Gameboy Advance
Rating: E (Everyone)

Do you enjoy riding your scooter daily or even once a week? If so then you probably will like this game. It’s called Razor Freestyle Scooter. This game is really action packed. It has lot’s of ramps that you can do awesome tricks off. Razor Scooter has basically every single move that you can dream of doing but, don’t try these tricks at home some of them could get you hurt pretty bad, they are still really cool though.

This fast paced game has lots of neat levels. In some of the levels you can pull off awesome tricks at the circus or you can get a ride to the nearest Air Force base where you can jump planes and ride down the runway. Other levels are the Skatepark and the Olympic Stadium. At the skatepark you can pull off tricks off of huge ramps and really long grinding poles. At the Olympic Stadium you can jump hurdles, ride around the track, do tricks in the Olympic pool, and many more things than that. There
is also more levels than that but you will have to either buy or rent the game to find out what they are.

f you are wondering what this game is rated because of all of the falling down and if you are wondering if there is any blood there isn’t and the game is rated E for everyone by ESRB. Razor Freestyle Scooter is a game that is like Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater, it has the same controls and it is the same genre. So basically if you like Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater you are going to like Razor Scooter. Razor Scooter is the first scooter game for Game Boy Advance (GBA). So if you are looking for a game that is original and unique then this is definitely the game for you. This game has pretty good game play which means that it is pretty easy to control but, if you have never played a GBA game then you should probably not start out with this game.

As for the graphics well, they aren’t the best that I have seen in my life but they are also not the worst, it has pretty good graphics. One of the features of the GBA is that you can use a link cable to have you and your friend play together in a match versus each other. If you have a link cable then you should definitely try this feature. Each level in this game has different requirements for you to meet. In each level you must make a certain number of points by earning them by landing tricks and you must also find a certain number of scooter wheels which are hidden in the level. Some of the things that you can choose to do at the Main Menu are 1 player, 2 player, and practice.

I would recommend this game for ages seven and up just because I don’t think any kid younger than that would be able to figure it out. I liked this game because you could pull off a lot of cool trick but I also did not like this game because the controls were very hard at first but eventually I got it. If you really like this game and you have a Nintendo 64 then there is a game called Razor Scooter for N64. It has the same controls but different levels. Overall Razor Freestyle Scooter for Gameboy Advance was a good game. (September, 2002)
