I was really hoping this was going to be a modernised revamp of, say, Wave Race 64. Unfortunately, the game has some very strange physics and really seems so much effort went into making pretty islands with reflective water that the rest of the game was more or less forgotten. What gives particular emphasis to the strange physics is both the fact that the jetski turns without weight (try a bootlegger turn by pulling back with the down arrow key and pressing the turn key -- now try the same manoeuvre in real life), and that you cannot fall off of your jetski even if you are in mid-air in the middle of a stunt when you land. Oh, and you can phase through the palm trees like they're not even there.
I wanted to like this game, I really did... sadly, there just isn't enough game here to like.
(I won't bother with the DRM issues -- they're acknowledged, it's a dead horse, stop beating it. My review is based solely on the game itself.)
