Freaky Flyers (PS2) Gameplay Sample

Also available on the Gamecube and Xbox, Freaky Flyers takes the flying portions of Diddy Kong Racing and splits them off into their own unique game, with a cartoon style that reminds me of Whacked on the Xbox, and has more to do in the races than just kart racing. This was a $2 thrift store find for me, and one that I was pleasantly surprised with.

As you can see, the game goes beyond just racing by adding objectives to accomplish throughout each course that either give you a new weapon slot, or open up boost rings. The levels are big, and there are a lot of hidden areas to find. In the adventure mode, you will also be tasked with alternate missions, like Bandito attack.

This is a really nice surprise, and a fun game that is worth picking up if you have the chance. Again, dare I say it again, Midway was on fire during the 6th gen, and most of their games are excellent.
