    Nix is a cool 3D racing, war game. Good graphics (somewhat limited), good game play (once you've gotten used to it), decent sound effects plus network play - which is always a winner in my books.

    The reason why I didnt give this game a higher score is the fact that there is only one world amd one vehicle to choose from. Something you might find a bit hard to get used to is the fact that the camera follows the direction of your turret (mounted on the roof of your car) and not the direction that you're steering. The graphics are good, the cars are clear and well designed but I found the scenery to be a bit lacking in detail.

    The aim of the game is to beat your apponents to the finish line. There is no specified track, just checkpoints - as long as you reach them it doesn't matter how you get there. Your turret can shoot using a machine gun, rockets, stingers, morters, grenades, mines, hellfire or even a homing missile.

    Nix has a good amount of action and network play adds an extra element of fun, it was even featured in the February 2004 edition of "Nintendo Power!". Worthy of a download.
