Idea Info Name: Top Gear Zero Index: Secondary Category: Racing Submitted: 3/1/2004 12:49:52 AM Written By: gamerT2

It is the year 2100. Racing cars have become faster and

faster, due to a discovery of magnetic engines. Magnetic

engines work in a way where a car can continue to

accelerate, but the car must reach 300 mph in 5 gears

before activating that engine. Since the cars have becoming

very fast, a league called Gear Zero has begun. This is the

intro of the game.

There are 2 modes and 2 sub-modes per mode in the game. The

modes are Single-player or Multi-player. The sub-modes are

story or arcade.

Single Story Mode: A one-player mode where you must reach

several objectives with only one character.

Single Arcade Mode: A one-player practice mode. The player

can practice on any track.

Multi Story Mode: This is a 2-4 player mode where each

player must race each other and reach their objectives at

the same time. Some objectives will require more than 1

player to reach, depending on the characters chosen.

Multi Arcade Mode: This is a 2-4 player versus mode. Only

players race on the tracks. They can choose from any track

to race.

Race Tracks and Rules:
Gear Zero make racing tracks in half-pipes and full-pipes.

The cars can race on any part of the track. Gear Zero has

made 26 normal sizes tracks plus a marathon track. Each

normal track size is range from 300 to 1000 miles of

twists, turns, loops, corkscrews, jumps, and intersections.

There are boosters on each track. Each booster will boost

your car up a gear. The marathon track is all the tracks

together, a very long track but it want be long after you

reach gear zero. If your car jumps or falls of the course,

your game is over for that course. Each race will have 12

cars on the track at once.

Cars:
Each car gear goes up 60 mph before switching gears. At

gear zero, the car continues accelerating. Also, in each

race, the car will have nitro that you can use, but you can

also run out of nitro. Once you run out, that's it for

nitro, but if you run over 10 boosters, your nitro gauge

will refill.

Characters:
You can choose from 12 characters to play. Each charater

has its own car, but you can choose the color of it. Each

character car is different by grip, magnetic accel, normal

accel, and boosting. Here are some of the characters and

their cars:

Character: Leo
Car: Camaro
Boost: A
Grip: A
M.Accel: C
N.Accel:  D

Character: Ralph
Car: Firebird
Boost: D
Grip: A
M.Accel: A
N.Accel:  D

Character: Dan
Car: Jaguar
Boost: B
Grip: D
M.Accel: C
N.Accel:  D

Character: Mike
Car: Mustang
Boost: A
Grip: A
M.Accel: D
N.Accel:  D

Controls:
The controls are simple. Accelerate, Brake, Cruise, Nitro,

Shift(Manual Trans. only) and Steer. While in the air, use

the Shift buttons to pitch your car up or down. You can

drive in a 1st or 3rd person view.

I recommend this game for Gamecube, Gameboy Advance, N5,

and Nintendo DS.
