Circuit Breakers is a racing game developed by Supersonic Software and published by Mindscape for the PlayStation. It is the sequel to Supersonic Racers. [3]

It was the first (and possibly only) PlayStation title ever to receive expansion packs through Demo discs released with Official UK PlayStation Magazine.

A remake for the PlayStation 2 was released in Europe only under the name Circuit Blasters in 2005.

Reception

The game received average reviews according to the review aggregation website GameRankings. [4] Some magazines gave it favourable reviews while it was still in development. [8] [12] [13] Edge gave it a favourable review over a month before it was released in Europe. [7] Next Generation said, "If you possess a multitap and three willing friends, this game should be at the very top of your 'must buy' list." [11] However, GameSpot gave the European version a negative review, a few months before it was released Stateside. [9] GamePro gave it a negative review, saying, The only fun to be had with this Micro Machines–style game is in the mildly entertaining multiplayer matches." [3] [a]

Notes

  1. ^ GamePro gave the game 2.5/5 for graphics, and three 2/5 scores for sound, control, and fun factor.
