18 Wheels of Steel Pedal to the Metal Editor's Review

Simulators have become a huge genre in gaming at this date. We have seen hundreds, maybe thousands spring up in the past few games. Some have become extremely big, such as the Sims, roller coaster tycoon and flight simulator. There are also ones, that have not prevailed such as digger simulator, and a really promiscuous one called street cleaner simulator. Simulators have been made for most real life activities or jobs, some done better than others. 18 wheels of steel, is a truck simulator, in which you pick up cargo and drive it to another destination. The further you drive, generally the more money you will make.

18 Wheels of steel pedal to the metal is the third game of the wheels of steel series, made in 2004. So you can expect it to be quite outdated compared to it's successors such as 18 wheels of steel Extreme trucker 2. However, the game is still fun. The whole idea of the game, is picking up cargo from different areas and then dropping them off somewhere else. The biggest improvement of 18 wheels of steel pedal to the metal, is the fact you can travel across the whole of the united states, north Mexico and canada. Which is fantastic compared to its predecessors which you could only travel across a few maps. So, that is already a fantastic improvement. The types of cargo you can take can also be different, oil, wood and general goods are usual ones. The distance you have to drive also changes as you have to take them to different cities and towns, because the company you are delivering too is different. A few issues with the game is, the game is very repetitive. You will notice much of the textures are reused such as bridges and when you leave cities, they have the same junctions. After a while, you get rather bored. Things I do like, you can get fined for speeding and passing red lights - keeping you to drive safely which I find as being quite fun. Though, one thing I wish for is that the game had policemen who fined you for speeding. Instead, if you find yourself speeding you instantly get fined - which can become extremely annoying.

The graphics of 18 wheels of steel pedal to the metal is a much better improvement from the games before. Especially, for a game made in 2004. The truck, roads and buildings have a good amount of detail on their artwork. However, other cars do not have as much detail. Also, if you ever look at the scenery, you may be disappointed at how blotchy it looks. However, you rarely look at it.

Overall, I do suggest downloading the game. It's fantastic fun, especially for the first couple of days. Over time it may become boring, but doesn't that happen for most games at some point? So really, that isn't much of a valid issue. The sound effects work, and make the game more realistic. So overall, i rate this game a 4.5/5. It is one of the best games in the whole series in my opinion so, I definitely suggest downloading this one.
