| ...In the near future, man will aspire to
different types of sports that push the envelope
of human endurance. Something's gotta break, especially
when the human body is still a pretty frail thing when
compared to a car or a robot. In Running High, some of
the limitations of the body are solved with cybernetic
technology which allows runners to race in the speed
range of 100 mph. This new game from Sacom features you
as a human with robotic parts in competition with other
cybernoids in a sports setting. If you are able to win a
race, you'll earn bytes which are tickets to future
races. Win enough races and you'll be rewarded with a
boatload of cash. The game engine is much like any other
racer except you're driving a cyber-body instead of a
four wheel ride. A novelty game that doesn't push any
technical or graphical envelopes but the
gameplay is different enough to be interesting. |
