Remember back in the mid to late-90's when vehicular combat games were all the rage? Twisted Metal, Interstate 76, and Destruction Derby were at the forefront of the charge, but bringing up the rear was a little title known as Vigilante 8. It gained a following, spawned a sequel and wound up drifting harmlessly into the annals of gaming, most thought to never be heard from again. Now, around the game's tenth anniversary, Xbox Live Arcade users are being given the chance to experience a remake of the Vigilante 8 series, all for the low cost of 800 Microsoft Points come this fall.

Just recently we were sent a handy-dandy Xbox 360 memory card containing the needed files to play a very early build of Vigilante 8: Arcade from Isopod Labs. The game packs in more content than most will be used to from a simple ten-dollar download. Thankfully for those looking forward to the release, everything looks to be on track for V8: Arcade to be one of the few must-own XBLA games.

For anyone who doesn't already know, Vigilante 8: Arcade pits up to eight players as one of eight different characters and lets them loose in five separate arenas to do battle. Of course each vehicle has its own personality, look and feel to its driving mechanics just as you'd expect. There are the quick hot rods like Jefferson and then there's the giant winnabego named GrooVan. Each driver has their own quest which is pretty fun, even though it is just a set of three bot matches, and comes complete with a small paragraph explaining their story. Beating each will unlock a new car for use in multiplayer or quick battles.

You'll find the usual stable of weapons. You'll see rockets, guided missiles, mortar shells, mines and special weapons to go along with shields, radar jammers and multipliers as power-ups. The combat in the original Vigilante 8 was a real challenge, even at the medium difficulty, and V8: Arcade is no different. I found myself struggling just as much as I did in the PlayStation version which is a definite nod to the faithful adaptation.

It's venturing through the levels that you'll find the most fun and destructive ways to take down your enemies. V8: Arcade is all about finding the location of your favorite items, then using them against your foes and repeating that process. There's a system called Whammies that multiplies their damage if they can hit an opponent with two weapons simultaneously. I had no problem firing up a mortar then launching a rocket and a missile at a baddy to score the coveted 2x Whammy, thus making short work of his life bar.

There are also plenty of environmental hazards that can be utilized in battle. The Oil Field level, for instance, has a long pipeline that can be ignited to send cars flying. That same stage includes oil rigs that can be used as makeshift bombs and another level is home to meteor landing sites that can erupt in a green destructive force. And that's just to name a few of the many obstacles.

The destructibility of everything in the environment has been ratcheted up a bit since the last time we saw the series on Dreamcast. Things splinter and break apart in a much prettier fashion than they did back before the turn of the century, and the amount of action on-screen can get downright frantic at times. Sadly in our preview build that did come at the expense of the framerate, which dipped considerably fairly often. Luckily there's plenty of time to tune up the package before it's sent off to the masses.

AI was another area of V8: Arcade that was both impressive at times and suspect at others. There were moments when I'd find a random computer-controlled character all alone running into a fence, but there were also instances where enemy units would take cover under bridges to hide from mortar shells and seek out health packs when necessary.

Of course if you don't want to rely on the artificial intelligence for a good time, there are also plenty of multiplayer options. There's co-op split-screen mode that's played against bots and up to eight players can join online to compete against each other in any of the stages. I didn't get the chance to test out the online performance but the number of modes is certainly impressive for a XBLA release.

Vigilante 8: Arcade looks as though it could wind up being one of the best games available on Microsoft's download service when it launches this fall. There are still issues that need to be tended to, but our build was so obviously hopefully there's time left to make the fixes. If that happens, then watch for V8: Arcade to make some serious noise on Xbox Live Arcade.

A new coat of paint can't save this busted and broken remake.

By Austin Light on

In the late 1990s, vehicular combat games were all the rage. For those unfamiliar with the subgenre, vehicular combat games stuck you on a map with floating weapon pick-ups and challenged you to destroy the other players. Thus, they were just like modern shooters--except with all the maneuverability of a dump truck. Among the few games to rival the king, Twisted Metal, was Vigilante 8. While the idea of remaking this classic 1970s-themed car combat game with shinier graphics and online play sounds great, the gameplay--as well as the subgenre as a whole--doesn't hold up well today.

There isn't much story in Vigilante 8, and what is there is shown in a block of text full of goofy '70s slang before you enter each level. All you need to know is that the Coyotes are the bad guys and the Vigilantes are the good guys. The retro theme permeates the menus and character designs, but it doesn't spread into the actual game outside of a few special moves or quips from the drivers.

Gameplay involves driving one of several decked out vehicles--ranging from a prison bus to a small hatchback--around largely destructible levels. Each vehicle is equipped with a machine gun, and has three slots open for other weapons that can be picked up around the map. Weapons include missiles, cannons, mortars, mines, and rockets, plus character-specific special moves. Each weapon can be charged for a more powerful shot, but taking the time to charge a weapon isn't always useful, especially when dealing with enemies armed with the overpowered mortars.

The single-player mode lets you play through a quest with any car, set up a quick match, or just drive around a level to familiarize yourself with its layout. The Quest mode is three short levels of death matches featuring no more than four cars. You can play through it multiple times with different cars to unlock extra vehicles and upgrades, but the mode gets tiresome quickly because it just isn't much fun. Bugs and glitches are everywhere. Your car will constantly get stuck in the destructible scenery or, worse yet, in or on another car; moving around tall structures or coming down hills will send the camera into freak-out mode as it gives you the worst possible view of your car; the unwieldy physics engine will have your car spiraling through the air like a falling leaf; getting knocked back by explosions can send your car into a death spin full of glitches; and going up the smallest of ramps can flip your car over to leave you stranded like a turtle on its back. Nostalgia might give you enough fuel to get through a few matches, but it's only a matter of time before these issues make you question your fond memories.

The biggest draw for this remake is the ability to play online. The prospect of playing an eight-player death match sounds like fun, but corralling that many people to play along is a challenge. If you can find enough players online, you'll find that the lag-free matches offer a lot more fun than the single-player matches against the AI. In a throwback to the good old days--before fancy online capable systems--the game lets you play local matches via four-player split-screen. There's some fun to be had, but the gameplay still feels busted.

Adding to the frustrations of the buggy gameplay are some awful controls. Most of the cars are sluggish and floaty, which makes it feel like they're driving on tread-less tires. The smaller cars offer more maneuverability, but they are still subject to the wonky physics. The lack of an easy emergency brake to perform quick 180s leaves you doing three-point turns while your opponents pelt you with missiles. If you're playing in a full game of eight players, things can get really hectic and you'll often spend more time tumbling through the air than on your wheels.

Real life examples are amateur radio, commercial broadcast radio and television, citizen band radio, etc. Radio frequency energy transfer from a (HF, VHF, UHF) transmitter to an antenna requires a transmission line impedance that equals the output source impedance and the antenna's input impedance. Selection of transmission line is based upon several factors: 1) required transmission line impedance between the source and the receiver (load), 2) application of the transmission line (RF, audio, digital data, etc.), and 3) transmit/receive port design. The transmitter output source impedance is typically 50 - 75 ohms and the antenna input impedance is usually the same. Factor 1, 2, and 3 examples. Advantages and disadvantages of serial and parallel data transmission.

The best thing about this package is the visuals, which have seen a modest upgrade from the PlayStation original. Smoother edges, more destructible environments, and cleaner textures all make this game look much better than it did in 1998. The environments are faithfully recreated, and many of them are spruced up with more explosive objects. There are only a handful of maps to choose from, however, so it doesn't take long for the action to get repetitive. The sound upgrades don't fare as well as the visuals. Repetitive, generic music loops endlessly in the background during battles, while many of the weapon effects sound weak and underpowered.

At 800 Microsoft Points, even if this game wasn't riddled with bugs, the shallow single-player experience makes it a tough sell. Vigilante 8 just couldn't stand the test of time, and while it might look a lot better than you remember, it plays worse.
