The PSP version of Test Drive Unlimited crams in just about every feature found in the PS2 version of the game, including the open-ended online world, and it does so without mucking up the experience.

Hardware limitations aside, Test Drive Unlimited for the PSP does an amazing job of bringing all the elements found in the console version of the game to make this a fun racing title.

Most of what made that idea so fresh and unique doesn't hold up well on the PSP. On the plus side, the impressive technology and solid racing make this game worth a look anyways.
