Lowrider, known in Japan as LowRider: Round the World (ローライダー 〜Round The World〜, RōRaidā 〜Raundo Za Wārudo〜), is a music video game developed and published by Pacific Century Cyber Works and Jaleco Entertainment for PlayStation 2.

Reception

[edit]

The game received "generally unfavorable reviews" according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.[2] In Japan, Famitsu gave it a score of 28 out of 40.[6] The only positive review came from Michael "Major Mike" Weigand of GamePro, who said that the game was "sure to hook fans of such games as PaRappa the Rapper and Um Jammer Lammy (or anyone with a cursory interest in lowriding for that matter) but—again—this is not a racing game."[13][b]

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ Three critics of Electronic Gaming Monthly gave the game each a score of 5/10, 5.5/10, and 2/10.
  2. ^ GamePro gave the game 3.5/5 for graphics, two 4/5 scores for sound and fun factor, and 4.5/5 for control.
