Freaky Flyers
Freaky Flyers
Freaky Flyers est un jeu de course aérienne édité par Midway Games, disponible sur PlayStation 2, Xbox et Nintendo GameCube depuis le 5 août 2003. Les versions Xbox et PlayStation 2 ont été développées en interne par Midway San Diego, tandis que la déclinaison Nintendo GameCube a été confiée à Point of View, Inc.
Concernant l'accueil du titre, Game Chronicles a salué une valeur de présentation digne d'une série télévisée et un gameplay surprenant, bien que parfois carrément difficile. À l'inverse, GamePro a regretté que le multijoueur soit si décevant au vu de la quasi-perfection du reste du jeu. Sur Metacritic, un joueur a trouvé le jeu étonnant, avec un doublage excellent et très drôle, et d'excellents graphismes et gameplay. Freaky Flyers enregistre une note agrégée de 57,50.

Avis des critiques et joueurs
Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« The presentation value is worthy of its own television series and the gameplay is surprisingly challenging and sometimes downright difficult. »
« The fact that the game is so close to perfection is what makes the multiplayer so damn disappointing. »
« Although there's a lot of play time available, this mostly comes as a result of playing the same levels over and over with loads of characters. [Sept 2003, p.82] »
« While Freaky Flyers is not going to compete with "Mario Kart" by any means, it is a fun title with a dash of innuendo, a drop of multiplayer, and about 2 sprinkles too little of speed. All in all, a fun adult title in the land of 'serious sims' and 'shell tossing plumber-racer' games. »
« The game will definitely have you busting a gut laughing and is even better when shared with friends. The single player mode, graphics, and especially audio are really polished but the game still feels like it could have used a little more "umph". »
« The game is enjoyable, but does suffer from being a little slow at times. Even so, the controls are fantastic, the stories are nothing short of gut busting, and the two player modes are done well. »
« Together with a narrator that truly enhances the experience (making this the polar opposite of 90 percent of games with narrators), Freaky Fliers is like a comedy album, cartoon and racing-shooter, all wrapped into one tasty toon tortilla. [Aug 2003, p.70] »
« The biggest flaw that I experienced while playing was the simple matter of the gameplay, as no matter how fast you go or how well you fly, a great deal of winning the race simply rests in picking the faster aircraft and getting fairly lucky. »
