"Destruction Derby Arenas" (PS2) Review

[cwalk1991boy]

@thugiblaster65 agreed lol DDA is still pretty cool though

[thugiblaster65]

Burnout 3 better version of this.

[kilrinstinct]

I still think the very first dd is still the best!!!

[Rexart35]

@mandude83 shut up, Raw was my favourite game when i was a child and i loved it

[iforgot87871]

Criterion games should pick up this franchise!

EA does love simple games, after all. But I do think it would be awesome.

[gloup81]

its reminds me of liberty city !

[Dr904]

powerups wtf!!!!

[malevolenceXXXensues]

looking back this feels like a flatout 2 prototype

[malevolenceXXXensues]

feels like a prototype to flatout 2

[EENEFAN27]

I LOVED this game! I never get tired of racing and the Arenas!

My only gripe is: Not enough cars to choose from, and the fact that the arenas are in small numbers compared to the race tracks...

[zombierust]

@EENEFAN27 agreed

[jbeaglet]

i think destruction derby arenas is better than destruction derby raw.

[Dilz424]

I never knew Destruction Derby Arenas was In the Destruction derby series (That long ago) DD2 Oh the memories

[musikman3061]

LOL i had this game for 3 years then sold it, now I bought it again at a flea market haha

[rical800]

love this game but i no longer own a ps2 :(

[DudeAlex21]

ARE U PORTUGUESE!? xDD

[zombierust]

@DudeAlex21 Sim :P

[DudeAlex21]

@zombierust reparei pelo sotaque, bom review eu adorava o jogo

[zombierust]

@DudeAlex21 Obrigado :)

[fritz0711]

any one know how to unlock the DAM in destruction derby arenas?

[zombierust]

Get first place on all tracks in Wrecking Race mode

[Cavalry150]

you must be first at all courses soryy but so it is like the arenas

[GhostJBT75]

DD2 is the best demolition racing game ever. DD Raw and Arenas are the sickest games of the series. Nitrous in a stock-car this is a joke !? DD Raw is NOT DD3 and the Arenas is NOT DD4, both have nothing to do with the series, they have "Destruction Derby" only the name but absolutly not the spirit.

[WigglyMalmsteam]

Personally I thought Demolition Racer, especially on Dreamcast, was the best in the series.

[zombierust]

Demolition Racer was not part of this series but I guess you meant that that game was better than any in the Destruction Derby series. If it was that I disagree, although that game was fun.

[governer180]

Destruction derby arenas is a kickass game!! The smallest detail, the faces in the car, the powerups, upgrades, commetary and that even the drivers are shouting to another if you hit them! It's just awesome!

[Keclu25]

i see nothing wrong with this game

[crossova13]

I never liked this one ^^

[thatstranger95]

Me and my dad used to play this and we LOVE playing the destruction derby mode...

[siadcom]

This Destruction Derby looks like ass! The first and the second ones are the best. This game is just a crappy pretender.

[DeltaForce1323]

damm i want it so badddddddddddddddddddddddddddd­d but i go to the store and they say they didn't get it

[Rudolf555]

Much too arcade has it become.

[cyrax1431]

why do you have problem in the game with x button?

[zombierust]

I really dont know :( It just doesnt behave well, I cant keep the button pressed (like usual) because after awhile it becomes deactivated and I need to re-press it.

Ive received emails with worst problems with pads in different versions of the game.

BTW this happens with the original PS2 pad.

[cyborg11327]

i hope if i will buy i don't have this kinda problem

[cyrax1431]

zombierust where are you from and how much that game cost? destruction derby 3?

[zombierust]

By saying Destruction Derby 3 you mean Raw right? I dont own DD Raw, I used to play with my friends CD. If you were talking about Arenas you can buy it now for about 15€.

[TitanHardcore]

This game sucked.... dd 2 was the best!!!

[fullnilla]

Destruction Derby 2 is still the best and should be hacked somehow to get different looks for your car

[rockstrr9619]

im sorry but i dont like this game to much, dd64 was the best, they minus well call it burn out

[buffalo27]

Getting my copy later this week to finally try..couldn't ever find a copy so my friend on xbox live found in his town along with 5 other games, is hipping them to me tuesday...can't wait as I own a love Raw for PS1.

[governer180]

SCRATCH IS MY FAVORITE!!

[governer180]

This is just a DREAM GAME. I HAVE THIS GAME AND IT'S TOTALLY AWESOME IT'S COOL AMAZING!!!! COOL ARENAS EVEN ROUGH JUSTICE WITH THE WRECKING BALL!!! COOL!

[AimalCool]

Top 4:

1.DD Arenas

2.DDRaw

3.DD3

4.DD64

[badwolf66]

What about the original destruction derby.

[benxander]

It is decided, the best soundtrack for a racing game I'd say is DD2!

I loved it so much that I ripped the audio to the PS3 and currently use that playlist to play Burnout Paradise - fits it beautifully.

If theres gonna be a Destruction Derby for the PS3/360, Criterion Games should definitely rise to the challenge and buy the rights for making one.

[Nukeman12345]

if any1 has this game can they tell me (if they know) where i can get that song on the title screen plz thnx

[AimalCool]

The first that you played was DD Raw and in a Razorback and the second was maybe DD Arenas.

[Raiko101]

Seems to have lost its way. The original Destruction Derby will forever remain the best it seems.

[mayhemtv]

aaah! i donno... i dont like it. THE BEST DD IS , WAS & EVER WILL BE is Destruction Derby2!

[wingerwanger]

which has better destruction derby play

This or flatout 2 ?

cuz im thinkin of pickin this up

[zombierust]

I believe DD Arenas IMO.....but it's better for you to try both, if possible, before you buy

[IGRUGBY]

flat out has mroe options of gameplay. i flat out u can do demo derby plus race plus it has the fun mini games were u have to use ur car or ur body to like hit a target or bowl lol

[Corvonix]

sure is, DD2 is the best of all, great soundtrack for wrecking, a great announcer and great crashes XD

[zombierust]

DD2 soundtrack rocks \m/

[Corvonix]

there is nothing better to destroy everything XD

[Corvonix]

thx to this video I decided to not buy the arena XD

I will buy flatout 2, this DD lost a lot of the olders DDs

[myguineapig]

this game is piece of shit, DD1 and DD2 were the best

[mandude83]

woah woah you got it all wrong, Raw sucked as did this one, DD2 and DD1 were both great games it just depends on whether you like the more arcadey game or more realistic, For me DD1 was the best purley down to the music and it actually seemed more real than 2

[zombierust]

That's your opinion and I respect it but IMO Raw was overall better than the previous games, I agree with the rest though.

[NUPPAWUNDER]

destruction derby 2 is tha best :)

[lllol12]

sorry i habe this dda from the 2.clip

[lllol12]

i have DDA from PS2 i have better grafic and better´s HUD(head up display)

[Skyliner223]

the best dda game

[GhostJBT75]

This "game" is a pure shit, it's so far away from DD2 who was the Best episode of the series.

[vixtro]

Depends, DD2 certainly has a high fun factor but then I enjoy the original DD the most because it feels realistic and is the closest thing to real life banger racing in a computer game.

[Namqula]

cool, never knew they made another part after DD2. i hope they new DD games for PS3/PSP or something.
