DESCRIPTION

Baja is an off-road racing title featuring an estimated 1,000 square miles of treacherous terrain to tame in more than 50 vehicles. Developed by 2XL Games, whose members previously worked on the MX vs. ATV series, Baja offers eight vehicle classes and multiple event types. Featured events include hill climbs, open class races, circuit races, rally races, and the grueling endurance challenge known simply as the "Baja." Players will try to make a name for themselves by winning cash prizes and earning corporate sponsorships.

The star of the game is the environment, with over 90 courses featuring mountains, mud, canyons, and other hazards in races that can last as long as four hours. Trophy trucks, buggies, 4x4s, and other vehicles are designed to have realistic handling and will experience real-time damage as races progress. Vehicles can also be customized throughout the game with over 200 parts in the areas of suspension, engines, tires, and more. Multiplayer support is available via split-screen display, where up to four racers can compete on the same system, or online for up to eight players. ~ Scott Alan Marriott, All Game Guide
