ELWELL
======
My Name is Elwell aka [OveR-LorD], i am a huge FPS (First Person Shooter)
fan. This Is my third public FAQ and i hope it fits into what everyone
wants. I know there is the arcade and adventure side to this game but i'm
getting to that ok?, so here is my Mirror FAQ.
I have made this FAQ for the following reasons
* No one else has.
* I wish i had one when i started
* I got bored at home so what better way to spend my day exept playing
this game.
I am currently writing about 7 other FAQs which i am hoping to post on
www.gameFAQs.com and www.NeoSeeker.com very soon, these FAQs include
"Aliens Versus Predator" and "Gunman Chronicles" and many more. I do most of
my FAQs with the help of other people because it makes life so much easier
so if you want to help me or offer advice to me on an FAQ please send me
your ideas and i will try and get back to you and of course credit will be
given where credit is due.

============
This is my 6th FAQ. I completed the Dreamcast version of wacky races
and I love Wacky Races (but who doesn't?)
I love arcade games and especially games by SEGA and Capcom.
This is one of my many FAQs that I have created with my best friend,
Elwell (aka Fatal Thief)

=============================================================================
III) Overview To "Wacky Races Starring Dastardly and Muttley"
=============================================================================
What can i say, its those wayout wacky races!
All of the classic characters causing mayhem in their own wacky world.
This game is a sort of sequal to the Dreamcast version, it has the same
characters, same engine, same specials, same tracks, So why was this
released, it has more! yes More! it has a whole new world! that means
5 new race tracks and a new battle arena!
For those of you who don't know what the "Wacky Races" are then,
HAVE YOU NEVER WATCHED A CARTOON?!?!
They are a classic cartoon where each character has an individual car that
can perform different things, also there is the most cunning and loveable
villain of Dick Dastardly and his Sidekick Muttley.
=============================================================================
IV) Overview To Multiplayer "Wacky Races Starring Dastardly and Muttley"
=============================================================================
Ok so the idea of 1,2,3 or even 4 people battling it out in the wacky races
sounds a good idea for kids, i was really surprised when i tried it and
loved it, ok i loved the cartoon as a kid but this is great, and dont get me
started on hard! The two player co-operative adventure is great and the 4
player arcade mode is amazing! Games like this make the multi-tap worth
while!
Ok so why am i going on about multiplayer in a mirror FAQ? its because you
single players out there may have missed the obvius point of, Get a friend
to help you find those Mirrors and Golden Muttleys!
=============================================================================

The mirror is well a mirror funnily enough...
it floats and shines with a golden rim...
Ok you want to know what its for?
well il tell ya anyway, when you find a mirror on a track it unlocks the
ability to play that track in mirror mode! For those who don't know mirror
mode makes the track flip around, so left is right and right is left, just
to give the game a pinch more playability!
