Test Drive Unlimited

Hey, brahs and girls! If you've ever dreamed of living la vida loca on the Hawaiian isle of Oahu, here's your chance! (Our dreams usually involve Christina Aguilera's wig collection, a case of Stella, and a brick of cheese the size of our head, but that's us.) After your jetliner touches down, you buy a car, buy a house, and then…you buy more cars and buy more houses. Things get a tiny bit more interesting once you take the game on Xbox Live, where you'll find other Xbox Livers looking to race, buy/sell/trade cars (Maxim Pro Tip: look for chumps willing to overpay for your crappiest hooptie), or just annoy one another by driving like total assholes. Sure, doing a racing game as an MMO is a novel concept, but after three or four hours of driving aimlessly around the island, you'll start wishing for Dog The Bounty Hunter to pull you over and give you one of his famous nicotine-fueled I-was-once-a-scumbag-criminal-too-brah pep talks.
