TrackMania Sunrise

« Unlike most such games Sunrise is packed full of features and what you get with it--besides a unique solo experience--are tools to effortlessly create custom content and share it and enjoy it together with everyone else. It is less than a year old and the community has already made an incredible amount of tracks and vehicles, and Nadeo released a free expansion pack. »

« Compared to its predecessor, it looks better, moves faster, throws you further and loves you more. The track design is more extraordinary than ever and full of flourishes that I can barely begin to emulate with my own creations, the new gameplay modes fit right in, and indeed Platform is arguably more addictive than anything in the first game all by itself. »

« Did you play with Scaletrix as a kid? And did you have wild fantasies about tracks with loops and jumps? Do you have the reflexes of a hyperactive weasel? If you answered ‘yes’ on all the afore-mentioned questions, Trackmania Sunrise is a game made just for you. [May 2005, p.84] »

« If you enjoy zipping Hot Wheels through loops and off your front porch, TrackMania is an essential selection as it's one of the best PC games of 2005. »

« Everything about TrackMania Sunrise comes together beautifully. [Aug 2005, p.75] »

« An addictive arcade racing experience with lots of personality and many surprising elements. Fun, fun and more fun. [Aug. 05] »

« A deceptively simple game, one of those classics that you can instantly pick up and play but which colludes with the pleasure seeking part of your brain into compelling you to keep on playing until you master all its little nuances. »

« The best thing about Sunrise is that it doesn’t take a huge time commitment. The load times are fast and you can keep this game on your hard drive for months and years to come and just pick up and play whenever you have some spare time. »

« Parmi toutes les conneries trackmaniaqueuses commises, cet énième épisode ne sort certainement pas du lot et se contente d'exploiter son filon merdique jusqu'à plus soif ou jusqu'à ce que la merde nous sépare. Et ça ne prend pas très longtemps, car ça fait bien chier à défaut de distraire ! Et c'est effectivement toujours aussi merdique, y compris comme simple jeu d'arcade à la petite semaine : de l'arcade sans intérêt, ringarde et dépassée à vrai dire, de l'arcade comme même les Japonais n'en font plus (ils avaient trop honte, à force...!). De l'arcade ennuyeuse, limitée et très basse du front. Et très bête aussi. Graphiquement très correct et pas trop exigeant, le jeu ne fonctionne pas sous Windows 7 ni aucun OS 64 bits à cause de la protection anti-copie. J'ai cru que c'était StarForce mais c'est DefenceLine ! on en découvre tous les jours... Bref, ne jamais forcer l'installation de ce truc, ça risque, non ça foutera carrément en l'air le windaube ! Sur Ixpet, aucun problème par contre. La désinstallation s'est très bien passée en tout cas ; je ne crois pas que le boîtier soit du plastique recyclable mais je vais le garder en secours pour caler le buffet. Le disque, pour sa part, vole pas mal du tout ! »
