[Dirty Duck]

Just played some more of Air Riders aware that Air Ride is only offline for the test drive so I just dove into City Tour without any holdups and actually really enjoyed it. When you get enough power ups you can become absolutely ridiculous, and with all the different Machines having different pros and cons or playstyles there's a lot of strategy to which ones you decide to hop on when they're available. If you've got a bunch of power ups that make you glide farther for instance you may keep an eye out for a machine that's better in the air to lean into that playstyle and bank on a final showdown option that benefits from gliding. I don't fully get how the final showdown works...it seems everyone can choose one of four and then they compete in that one? So if you win your mini-event I'm not sure whether the game cares about your rankings against the people who chose the other three-instead the match just sort of ends? Not really sure. Maybe it's best that it doesn't care about how you did against people who obviously amassed totally different stats to you, not impressive if a cheetah outruns a falcon with both on foot.

I just played a match where I got sooo many power ups that during the final showdown I didn't even need to drift or boost, I just steamed ahead and nobody could touch me even if I drove on the dirtroad. This was the result of a particularly good session of driving around collecting power ups and doing mini-events during the preparation time.
