The best racing game of the year..."Gran Turismo 2" and "3" are just as good, but they are definitely not better than Splashdown.

One of the best looking water games with lots of tricky entertainment and wet fun for everyone, newbie and pro, to enjoy.

As long as you don’t mind a slightly more technical feel and a hefty challenge, you’ll find the best thing to happen with jetskis since the N64’s Wave Race.

If you like your racing fast, fun, highly controllable and mouth-wateringly gorgeous to look at, however, then this is definitely one title you want to add to your pool of games.

GameCube's Wave Race will receive the hype this holiday season, but Splashdown's sexy curves and what it can do with them are much more appealing to me.

The graphics are fresh and the water effects are fantastic. You’ll find it hard to get bored of this title.

Each of the 9 riders has their own ending movie which is well worth the effort to unlock.

Highly addictive...Even after having played in the area of 20 hours of this game, I still find myself distracted by just how good it looks.

If you can live with drop dead gorgeous tracks and great physics, you'll find a lot to love in Splashdown.

Splashdown has amazingly distracting watery visuals, great draw-in distances, offers a large challenge for one or two players, and is a joy to control.

A game no library should be without. Splashdown is THE game to own for fast-paced purified racing graphical gaming goodness.

With intuitive control, superb graphics, and a catchy soundtrack, Splashdown is an excellent Jet Ski racing game.

This is a better game than "Wave Race: Blue Storm." It may not have the wave physics that Nintendo's racer has (or many waves at all for that matter), but it runs away with the look of the water, control, and playability.

Easy to handle control, a decent trick system, and the all important water physics are down pat.

Incredibly fun physics which give you the feeling of actually riding on a waterbased vehicle.

I have never seen water this realistic in a video game.

The controls are easy to learn, races are challenging without being unbeatably difficult, and the terrain is rich and varied.

Incredibly addictive and loads of fun...Sadly, the game only takes a few hours to beat on easy, and is ridiculously hard on the higher difficulty setting.

A good racing game that--with a few tweaks-- could have easily been one of the greatest.

It strikes a perfect balance between racing and aerial trickery so one doesn’t overshadow the other – they’re equally important.
