Summary:
Ah, smell the fresh air. Look at the rolling hills. Glance over at the duck racing toward you with a chainsaw. What!?! Cel Damage. This is an amazing game. There are 3 modes. You start of with 1, smack attack. After winning one level in Smack Attack,you unlock the next mode, the gate relay. See for each mode there are the same levels or places. They never change, except in gate relay mode where two gates are placed on the course. Personally, I find this mode difficult and repetitive. However, it can be fun at times. Gate relay mode consists of you picking one of six characters and racing through each gate 10 times. The winner unlocks the next level in that theme. See, there are 3 modes, but 4 themes in each level (the same in each)desert,transylvania,space, and the jungle, (all equaly fun). The next mode, Smack Attack, your goal is to smack another character 500 times. To get weapons, you must run over boxes that show the weapon you're about to get. The baseball bat, chainsaw, chain gun, axe, boxing gloves, freezeray, and grenades are a few basic weapons to name a few. Each character also has a personal weapon only he or she can have. When you win a level you unlock the next level, a weapon, and after winning four levels, you unlock the Flag rally. The flag rally is just like capyure the flag. Once you collect 4 flags, (there are more than 4 available) you drive to the winner's circle, but you must avoid the other six characters to get there. The other cars will come after you once you get two flags. This mode is by far the best.

Summary:
Cel Damage is best known as the great reinforcer of the all too well known maxim, "You get what you pay for."

Only a month or so after being ported from the Xbox version, a slightly improved format was released on GAMECUBE. The graphics and set up are identical in both versions, but the GC version resolved some small gameplay quirks which plagued the original.

When you switch the system on, you are immediately aware that this was ment to be a mature game. The movies and concepts are crude, and the overall feeling of the game matches up well with Cartoon Network's Adult Swim. But what is also quickly evident, is that the game is a cheap throw-together which will likely be the entertainment of one evening before being retired to your own personal videogame graveyard.

Summary:
Cel damage is a cel-shaded racing/shoot-em-up game. It has a strange concept but it works well and the multiplayer is exalent plus you can still unlock things in multiplayer! The charicters are so funny and unforgetable. I would ,recomend this game to every-one since it is so much fun and cheap.

Summary:
Cel damage is a party game. You are an automobile with weapons and you go to destroy other automobiles to get first place. Its kind of like playing twisted metal but much more cartoony. The game features ten characters to choose. The characters all have there own unique style and personality. There are a total of 36 weapons to choose from. Most of the weapons are really cool. There are a total of 12 levels to choose from with four themes (swamp, wild west, space, and graveyard) each level having something different you can even destroy most of it. This game is most fun with two or more people. Its really fun unlocking items together. This game consists of three different modes:

Smack attack: You fight with other people until one of you gets 500 hits. I think this mode is the most fun especially with other friends playing.

Gate relay: Be the first to go through 20 gates. This is basically racing. This mode is also really fun.

Flag rally: Be the first to collect 4 flags and bring them to the winners circle. This mode is really, really hard unless you play with another friend and make a plan. I dont really like this mode because its too hard.

Cel Damage is a nice game to play and to add to your collection. I say pick this one up because its really cheap and fun. The game is too short. and gets kind of repetitive but its a nice game to play when you are bored.
