Baja: Edge of Control HD

BAJA: Edge of Control HD is an Arcade/Simcade style Offroad racer its kinda a little hidden gem but with a few problems:
Pros:
+ 9 open world maps (95 tracks)
+ 8 race classes
+ 46 cars (2 arent in career mode for no reason, i dont count the bonus cars)
+ 4 game modes (track curcuits, rally, open class and hillclimb)
+ helicopter mechanic is unique to help you during the Rally and Baja stages
+ bots are fun to race with they also make mistakes
+ fantastic track design
+ great soundtrack (simular style to DiRT or Flatout)
+ Rally stages simular to real rally only no driver with its sign messages
+ the two bonus cars are a fun little thing to try out
+ graphics are soild
Cons:
- the draw distance is kinda odd, lower shadow pop up or trees and gras
- Career mode is fun for a while but for example the last two Trophy Truck championships feels a little bit to long
- some stages here and there have a few balanced problems sometimes a little bit to easy other times a little bit to fast and other times its perfect
- Career mode is fun but anything special you just race the events and thats it but its fine
Very fun racing game but during the end run its gets a little respetive but still fun enought to finish the game to 100%. I would recommed rather play with Simulation mode rather than aracde for the reason that in Aracde physics are a little to floaty and in simulation mode you have more grip. One more thing good to know if you hunt for achievements then for online you can completly play alone and do them without need any players. If you like games like DiRT/Motorstorm or any aracde offroad racer you can check it out its diffently worth a try!

Easily one of the best offroad racing games of all time, no question.

It's a very bare-bones buggy racing game, but it's surprisingly fun. Not sure why there isn't more games like this.

Pretty underrated in my opinion. The first couple tiers of vehicles are a little boring with how slow they are, but once you get to the faster classes it's simple but solid fun. Great track design, good physics. It's a great podcast game too.

100% recommended. Lots of arcade fun but also hidden depths if you want to get into that.

This game is a classic of my childhood, and if your looking at this game you most likely played it growing up too. However if you didn't let me give you a idea of what to expect.

This game is all about baja, everything from the 250 to 1000. it also features hill racing, circuit and rally races. there are many different classes of race cars from VW Beetles, all the way to trophy trucks. The game has a currency system and has vehicle upgrade and skin customization, as well as earning sponsors which changes the way your vehicle looks.

For the early 2000's this game was really ahead of its time, and it bring a arcade sim experience to a usually forgotten type of offroad racing. The game is fun, features ideas the you dont even see in dirt rally, and is challenging enough to motivate you but not ruin your day.

However, this game is almsot ten years old, and it's just a "remaster" of a nearly twenty year old racing game. The physics are actually pretty impressive given it's age, but it's on par with older title like Mx vs ATV, this game is not snowrunner or BMG Drive. The graphics leave a lot to be desired, and the maps feel empty and very PS3.

Understand it's a old game. It's gonna run and look like it. Otherwise it's a lot of fun and if your looking for a older styled racing game for nostalgia, or want a actual Baja game then buy it.

Somebody please, please make a new baja racing game like the Dirt series.....

actually this is a good off-road acrade racing game
don't expect to get here top level visuals or realistic physics, but the game provides a lot of content, has a great visual style and works perfectly on low end PCs and a steam deck
