Multiplayer mode is where online gamers can. The gameplay, scenery, and graphics made me nostalgic for the glory days of racing on the Nintendo 64. For the single player option, only the player is going to be playing in a race against computerized opponents. The only complaint I had was the somewhat buggy multiplayer mode. Raging Thunder 2 will take you through abandoned temples, tropical beaches. Overall, Raging Thunder 2 is a solidly addictive racer for the iPhone. For those who do care about the visuals, though, the courses are a vibrant collection of courses: from jungles and temples to ice caves and the Great Wall, you’ll be racing through distinct locales. Featuring online, cross-platform multiplayer, Raging Thunder 2 allows players to challenge strangers around the world to heart pumping racing action whether. The graphics are not excellent-kind of choppy and blocky and reminiscent of Mario Kart 64-but I wasn’t paying too much attention to the quality because the gameplay was so addictive.

Unfortunately Polarbit is going to need to update it sometime soon, as I had several multiplayer matches that ended up crashing the game.

While such a feature is now common on the iPhone, with racing games like Raging Thunder, it’s especially important. And considering we gave the original Raging Thunder a Silver. Judging by the video below, Raging Thunder 2 offers some good old arcade racing fun in a graphically pleasing package. Keep in mind that we're not talking about wifi multiplayer here, though that's cool, too - this is real-time multiplayer with other people who are around the world.Raging Thunder 2 also has an online multiplayer mode that will allow you to tackle opponents from around the world. With six cars and twelve tracks to play through, internet multiplayer, and five modes - including Arcade and Career - it sounds like there's a lot to chew through. Update: Commenters have piped up (thanks!) with some other games that have attempted online multiplayer, including Tap Tap, Galcon, and Adrenaline Pool. This is only the beginning, however - here's to many, many great online multiplayer experiences on the iPhone. Easier to do trash talking when you know who you're talking about. The game features 6 single player game modes: Career: in this mode, the player competes in 8 tournaments including 2 to 5 tracks, earning money to buy new cars. It would be nice to see player names above cars. But once you get into the game, it's Raging Thunder with other people driving the cars. The lobby system is a little awkward and without voice chat (strange how much I've just taken it for granted in multiplayer nowadays), it's hard to tell whether people are playing or just waiting in a room (or why they're dropping out of the race, as a few players did while I played). I just gave it a shot, and it worked well.

It's not quite on the level of Xbox Live yet - Polarbit is offering a free beta of their server software on the website, so you've apparently got to have your own server running (or sign on to someone else's) to race against your friends online. They say it's an App Store first, and I think they're right - a few games have offered wifi multiplayer before (Apple's Hold'em does, and Raging Thunder did previously), and some games have done some non-real time multiplayer ( Loot Wars is interesting in that way) but allowing players to play competitively online in real-time is something that hasn't been done much.

Go online for full Internet and LAN multiplayer.

Play through 5 different game modes with unique tracks. Take on the role of a street racer and earn your respect. Polarbit says that with version 1.0.3, which is in the App Store now, they've released online, real-time competitive multiplayer. Observe beautifully intense graphics while tilting your phone to steer. Raging Thunder is one of those games we've been watching since the App Store was first announced, and now it may have reached another milestone.
