	Splashdown -- PS2 -- Four Stars
		There are several modes available in Splashdown, with the meat and potatoes of the gameplay being the career mode where you build a team of world class Sea-Doo racers in a season of 12-20 races--depending on which difficulty you are playing on.
		Despite the fact that Splashdown has all of the mechanics right, it sounds, looks, and feels right, it’s major flaw is that it is fairly boring.
		Splashdown’s craft all feel pretty much the same, and I simply became bored after a while.

	GameSpy: Splashdown Review
		Splashdown for the Xbox takes what was good on the PS2 and makes it better.
		After spending a week with Infogrames' Xbox version of Splashdown, I have come to the conclusion that gamers with multiple consoles who already own the game (and have been enjoying it on their PS2) are not playing its finest version.
		There are many well-designed and challenging courses in Splashdown ranging from the rainy and murky Everglades to the pleasant Venice Canals.

	GamingWorld X - Splashdown: Rides Gone Wild Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Well, it’s hard to say whether it gives Wave Race its comeuppance, but considering that Rides Gone Wild has improved on its predecessor (which itself was already a pretty good game to begin with) in most every meaningful way, whether or not it is superior to Wave Race is irrelevant.
		There are three tiers of tricks (and over 75 ticks in all), and performing them has an immediate affect on your craft’s capabilities—doing tricks increases your Sea-Doo’s “Performance Meter,” and the more complicated the trick the higher the meter goes.
		While the logic behind it may be nonexistent (why would doing tricks and missing buoys effect the performance of a water craft?), it still adds a nice amount of strategy to the racing.

	SplashDown at Psxa2z.com!
		A combination of throttle-stop racing and trick-style events, Splashdown features four modes of play, challenging the player to take their chosen sea-doo (apparently slightly different to a jet ski) around a variety of courses ranging from harbour spaces to the Everglades of Florida.
		The water-based nature of the game really adds an extra dimension to proceedings, allowing for aerial stunts and underwater manoeuvres to be executed in a bid to carve through big water quickly and efficiently.
		Splashdown is not a perfect game, but it is an excellent title that offers plenty of replay value if you have the patience to get past its initial learning curve.

	Splashdown Review @ DigitalBackSpin (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		For those that are sick of hearing about incredible water effects, avert your eyes for a sec; Splashdown has simply the best water I've ever seen in a video game.
		We found the easy mode to be a little TOO easy (we beat the game in just over an hour this way), but the normal mode is pretty challenging and ads an additional 8 tracks to the Circuit for a total of 20.
		Splashdown should keep you happily dreaming of fun in the sun through the cold dark winter.

	GameSpy: Splashdown Preview
		Not only are you attempting to navigate the choppy waves to annihilate the rest of the racers in the water, you also have to mind the locals -- whether those be pirates, ghosts, or even penguins (yes, penguins).
		Aside from gameplay mechanics and the extreme amount of attention paid to physics, Splashdown was -- and still is -- a racer dominated by one element and one element only: water.
		With a few months left to tweak all of the details, all signs point to Splashdown 2 more than surpassing the surging adrenaline rush that was its predecessor.

	IGN: Splashdown Review
		Though Splashdown races are on fixed tracks, there are always multiple splits on each track.
		At first the tracks in Splashdown are a bit too short, but as new tracks are opened, the length increases, offering a tad more excitement.
		Splashdown is fun, but it lacks the difficulty and depth that made the Wave Race series so successful.

		Splashdown plays much closer to a sim and that includes its diverse trick system that maintains the realistic feel.
		It offers Stereo and Dolby Pro Logic II as aural vehicles for an all new sound track that is fun and plays well with the game (not to mention being a little different that the standard mix of licensed music or cheesy mind numbing techno).
		There are tons of single player modes and goals for you to obtain and a versus mode for when you have company.

	GamesFirst! \|\| Splashdown Review \| Splashdown \| Xbox,
		In many ways I enjoyed Splashdown better than Wave Race, and now that the game has been released for the Xbox and I have spent the past month working to master it, I can definitely say that it is a good title.
		I can also say that during the heat of the day, playing a game like Splashdown will make you feel cooler (although be aware that playing a personal watercraft racing videogame does not actually enhance your "cool").
		Splashdown has you racing Sea Doo jet skis on 20 different courses, varying from Lake Powell in Utah to indoor tracks in exotic locales.
