Monster Jam Steel Titans 2 is an over-the-top playground for those who love all things monster trucks. In addition to the comical trucks that many will recognise from the real-life Monster Jam events, Rainbow Studio has also done a fabulous job of creating the worlds that are inspired by the various teams. There's the well-designed Mutt-map that best reflects the comical sights of the Mutt vehicles, to the haunted Graveyard that left a lot to be desired from a racing perspective. As is the case with monster trucks, there are a few bumps and hits that can often mar the experience and put a dampener on things - but for the most part, this title is a few hours of fun for the monster truck enthusiasts who just want to escape into this virtual playground of destructive carnage and mayhem!

With new online modes, capable and fun split-screen, and one truly great fictional racetrack (Rusty Ravine), it’s only really let down by its slight low-budget feel and sense of déjà vu. But being enjoyable to play is surely the whole point of a videogame, and this is very enjoyable indeed. [Issue#187, p.81]

Monster Jam Steel Titans 2 could have been a better game if the developers spent more time and resources on its visuals; but it can still entertain the fans of the monster trucks.

Very good game, has acceptable physics and beautiful graphics, but it reminds me of my slutty ex-girlfriend... kelle, I'm going to catch you and I'm going to send you to the gutter!

Unlocked all the worlds, but still can't get past the awful physics and lack of polish on this title. Unfortunately if you want a monster truck game with the licensed vehicles, you haven't got much choice. My sons under 10 love it though because it has the vehicles they know. Just be aware the trucks drive like marshmallows, the races often have poorly defined bounds so you get reset for taking random corners *slightly* wide, trees that gave way during free roam turn into truck crushing obstacles during races, and the AI do nothing but follow their programmed line and bulldoze you if you get in the way. On the plus side you can't lose the freestyle events for the same reason you can't win the races: just drive in any direction and the moment the truck flips it'll just keep bouncing around until you get a perfect 10. Buy if you have young kids who love monster trucks, or it's in the bargain bin.

It's not the best truck game, but it's a decent game. Maybe would have did more.

It’s certainly not for everybody, but those who are keen on driving four-wheeled monstrosities in open environments and flinging them around stadiums will be in their element with Monster Jam Steel Titans 2. It doesn’t really excel in any area, but it is one of the best attempts at bringing the joy of driving monster trucks to the video game world regardless. A nice variety of events and activities are on offer, and it boasts what is perhaps the largest number of Monster Jam vehicles to get behind the wheel of yet. It’s by no means essential, but if you’re after a racing game that’s a little bit different, you can do a lot worse.

Racing Monster Trucks is a lot of fun, as long as you don't mind the fact that every truck feels exactly the same way. That's not the worst thing in the world, though - especially if you consider the meaty career mode and enjoyable online modes the game has on offer.

Monster Jam Steel Titans 2 is fun, at least for a couple of hours. After that, you will not be inclined to run the game again, because you will already have figured out everything it has to offer. It feels like even the developers designed the game as a temporary distraction, aware that the magic quickly fades out. It is only a small improvement compared to the first Monster Jam Steel Titans and even with a more modest price tag and online multiplayer, it is hard to recommend for someone. Monster Jam Steel Titans 2 is way too arcade for the fans of the sport and offers very little to anyone else.

It’s a decent effort, one that monster truck fans alone will get the best out of. But if you’re a gamer looking for a top-rated car and racing experience, there’s better out there.

Rainbow Studios has been responsible for some top-notch, mudslinging racers over the years, but Monster Jam Steel Titans 2 isn’t one of them. The racing is serviceable enough and the themed worlds are a cute idea, but its bland and poorly presented, chore-like approach to its career content turns one of the most grin-inducing spectacles in motorsport into a remarkably dull experience.
