![]() But you finish this event, and you’re popped into the next one. It is this feeling for what I come to Monster Trucks for, tight jumps, quick turns, white knuckle battles. With that rear steering, I felt as if I was rocking and rolling through this tight indoor course. It is here I felt the physics of the truck shined through. They throw you into a tiered bracketed racing event set up with a main, semi-final, and final event. ![]() The stadium path sounds great on paper and, again, gives you a great first impression. On top of this, both career paths are riddled with issues. Something to let me know what I should or could be doing next. I would have preferred that I could access both careers in-world with some form of progression bar or an “up next” indicator on the screen. It’s strange why not make this more intuitive? Hiding one career behind the pause menu, with no indication that “hey, you should do this next,” left me feeling lost and aimless. But to do the world events, you navigate to a specific icon on the map. To compete in the arena events, you have to pause the game and select from a menu. One career path is a championship held within arena events, while the other is a world career based on the current open-world you’re visiting. You’re given two separate career paths to wade through, although it’s quite confusing how to navigate them. Until then, Steel Titans 2 is probably as close as we’re ever going to get. Microsoft, bring back Monster Truck Madness. ![]() Add to the fact that I was in this sunny campground-like area, and I started to get Monster Truck Madness vibes, and I loved Monster Truck Madness. The trucks genuinely felt alright to drive. They now give you rear-wheel steering control with the right analog stick, and this made for some more precise maneuvering. Stepping on the gas, I could feel the driving physics had improved. Once dropped into the first world, I was initially impressed. The game is broken up into multiple open worlds to explore with your choice of Monster Truck. Overall, you find out quickly how much of a slog things are. The initial presentation of colorful open worlds feels deceitful when you find out there mostly isn’t much to do within them. I’m here now with the sequel, Steel Titans 2, and though I think: it’s an upgrade, and there are things the game does that make my time with it less than enjoyable. In 2019, I reviewed Monster Jam Steel Titans and felt it was middle of the road.
