Eidos’ Mad Dash Racing for the Xbox puts a new spin on the cart-racing genre – instead of mini-racers, the cute characters in the game move with their legs.
As you might have guessed, Mad Dash Racing’s objective is simple: you are one of 9 different beasts looking to cross the finish line first – though of course, it’s not as simple as that in practice.
Mad Dash’s adventure mode also opens up some cool challenge races where you can win upgrades and power-ups that will enhance the characters throughout their ‘careers’.

Mad Dash expands on this somewhat -- instead of merely racing to the finish, you're racing with a purpose: your very survival.
All told, Mad Dash is looking like the Xbox's launch day answer to last year's SSX on the PS2 -- a title that comes out of nowhere to make people sit up, take notice, and hopefully, get excited about the incredible potential that the Xbox has to offer.
Mad Dash, barring unforeseen disaster, seems almost certain to be one of those games that every Xbox owner will want, and no Xbox owner should be without.

 Mad Dash Review for Xbox - Gaming Age   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
Mad Dash’s gameplay is then much more focused on exploring the environment on the hunt for shortcuts, rather than wondering if that sharp corner coming up will take too long to skid around.
Everything in Mad Dash has a distinctly wacky Disney-on-crack look to it, and since each stage has plenty of visual treats, the first couple of runs are fun even if only viewing the scenery.
Mad Dash fits in the normal expectations for a launch title: visually pleasing with repetitive long-term gameplay.

Mad Dash Racing is one of those titles that you either "get" or you don't.
Perhaps the greatest drawback to Mad Dash Racing is the interface, which can be confusing at times.

 PlanetXbox - A Member of the GameSpy Network
One of the first titles you'll see for the Xbox as it storms into homes everywhere is Mad Dash Racing, a curious blend of high-speed racing and platformer action from Crystal Dynamics and EIDOS Interactive.
In the tradition of such games as Mario Kart and CTR, Mad Dash Racing is a blisteringly fast racer for one to four players with bizarre tracks, edgy characters, and exhilarating action.
A 360 is easy to pull off even on flat land, but Mad Stunts (anything over a 1080 is considered a Mad Stunt), require a lot of hang-time and a considerable amount of dexterity.

 IGN: Mad Dash Interview
August 24, 2001 - We recently had a chance to check out Mad Dash at a recent event, and while the game was similar to the last time we had a chance to check it out, the venue provided us with a unique opportunity to savor something else that the game delivers: sound.
Mad Dash supports Dolby Digital 5.1 during the actual gameplay, and it isn't just limited to the music, as some people may expect.
That is the basics of what DD 5.1 sound does in a game such as Mad Dash, and it's actually pretty cool to see games doing this now.

That is the dash to have surgery and other treatment when a woman is diagnosed with breast cancer.

 Mad Dash Review
But I bought Mad Dash anyway, because it was new and inexpensive, and maybe it would end up being fun (after all, Take Off is fun, especially if you play with some nasty and vengeful people who are willing to fly back out of Hawaii just to knock another plane back to start!).
The box is nothing much to look at; just a small, dark blue box, big enough to hold two decks of cards, with "mad dash!" written on it in red, and a white outline of the United States.
I find Mad Dash quick and intense, and with the maps there for reference, you don't have to be a geography whiz to play well.
