F-Zero Meets Hot Wheels
TrackMania Nations Forever is a fast-paced in your face racing game that will have you doing loops and corkscrews all night long. 
There are three different activities that you can choose in TrackMania.
Play Solo where you test your speed and control to achieve the fastest time possible and win Gold, Silver, or Bronze Medals. These medals you acquire give you tokens which improve your Medals World Ranking (comparing you to your individual state, nation, as well as the rest of the world). Faster Times = Better Medals = More Tokens = Better Ranking. There are five difficulties in Solo Play starting with White being the easiest to Green, Blue, Red, and Black being the hardest. Total Solo Play has 65 different tracks. Fifteen per each difficulty, excluding Black which only has five. Since the majority of the tracks are relatively short you should be able to beat Solo Play within a day. The real challenge will be getting Gold on each track.
Play Online is where the true value of TrackMania Nations Forever is. You will be able to join servers to race against people from all across the world. Now while the gameplay will remain the same as Play Solo it is more fun to be racing against real people rather than racing against a set time. One significant addition that Online Play has over Solo Play is that there are hundreds of custom tracks that are created by other players and can be a blast to play.
Play Party is similar to the first two, except it is intended for Local Area Network play. Play Online is easily the best activity out of the three, because you can race against people internationally on custom tracks and pwn n00bs.
TrackMania Nations Forever also has several user friendly Editor Options. You can create your own tracks from scratch or edit any pre-existing tracks. While there is only one car model you can edit the colors, apply stickers, and add textures to personalize it. You can edit replays as well as even edit your horn!
The overall interface is clean and easy to navigate. The controls are incredibly easy to learn. The graphics are standard, not too spectacular but nice. The audio gets the job done. I’d recommend this to anyone, except those who have motion sickness. One of the best racing games I’ve ever played. Oh and it’s legally free! Here’s the link so you may install and enjoy this masterpiece. http://www.steampowered.com/v/index.php?area=app&AppId=11020
