FRANK MCCUTCHEON AKA NO FACE
February 14
My therapist says I should keep a journal; he says it'll make me feel better. But I don't think anything'll ever replace the loss I've suffered... screw him.
When I got something to write about... I'll let you know.
April 19
You're never gonna believe who my neighbor is in the next cell. That jerk off clown serial killer from the newspapers... glad they caught the freak, but he keeps mumbling the same words over and over...
I wonder if I should be worried... then again, if he killed me, I'd be out of this place.
June 19
Well whadaya know? Something eventful just happened. This guy - calls himself Calypso - comes into my cell. From the looks of things, he killed about 15 guards just to get to me.
Says he wants me to be a part of his contest. Says if I win, I'll get to confront the man who did this to my face.

ANYONE LESS THAN MYSELF
June 21
People ask how I can drive without my eyes. I dunno really. It's like all my other senses, they've gotten better... stronger. I drove by a group of kids today, just getting out of school.
I don't know how but I know they were lookin' at me - I know they were afraid... I could smell it! And I can sense the doc too... I can feel him... I know he's out here, and when I win Calypso's gonna deliver him to me on a silver platter...
AUTOMATIC POWER
June 23
Damn that doctor! My face hurts so much, I feel like I wanna take a knife and just slice the damn thing off! In the asylum, I was one of the calm ones... I never hurt nobody.
But things are getting tough out here... this contest, it ain't easy. Think I need more of a killing instinct... maybe I should study the clown more... see how he does it, man...
AM I READY TO DIE FOR REVENGE?
NERVOUS CHILDREN
June 25
All of these other drivers... laughing screaming out as they race by... The Devil himself must be in their hearts. Before every fight, I used to pray... pray for protection.
But no one answered my prayers. That's how I ended up here. Maybe the only way out is to ask the Devil for a favor.

June 28
When I was a boy, my father used to take me to the fights. I used to inflict that kind of pain... to see that blood gushing and know it was all because of me.
I used to practice on my brother... and the other kids in the neighborhood. After school, I knew the only thing I could ever be was a fighter... Who knew it could all go so wrong.

Battlegrounds
Each battleground is filled with its own challenges and pick-ups to optimize destruction... Almost everything is open game... the houses, buildings and helicopters. Lob a Gas Can or two and see what happens.
Junkyard
The Junkyard continues to function obliviously, despite the battle. Take caution of the car crushers that will take out unsuspecting victims. The ENV weapon involves the abandoned warplane. Use it and watch your opponents scramble for cover.
Suburbs
Prepare to battle in a dark suburbia where condemned buildings and an asylum reside. Watch out for the pedestrians and fodder-cars that line the streets.
Blast into the mall for access to pick-ups and a place to catch your breath. But beware the lightning storm brewing overhead.
Freeway
Battle along the freeways of Midtown, a huge city that teems with life. Take the exit ramps to launch into the upper floors of the State Hospital or to join the sprint races in the local stadium.
Try to avoid the speeding traffic that gets in the way. Or you could simply run them down...
Downtown
The seedy streets of Downtown are the perfect setting to do battle with the other inmates. The tall buildings make it difficult to see missiles coming around the corner.
Also, be careful where you fire your weapons because there are many innocent bystanders walking the streets. The aqueducts holding the city's water supply aren't very safe either. The R&D Chemical plant has decided to use it as their toxic dumping ground.
Highway Loop
The highly trafficked Highway Loop is a circuit of death. The design of this battleground leaves you open to attacks from the front as well as the rear.
Plus since there aren't too many places to hide, expect to be constantly bombarded by your opponents. Watch out for the missing barricades because the much-needed highway repair has fallen behind schedule - one wrong move and you'll plummet to your death.
Prison Passage
On this battleground, fight in and above the bowels of a ship destined for a desolate prison island. The battleground is huge, so be sure to explore it thoroughly. But beware, no one has ever gotten off the island...
Snowy Roads
This small battleground is extremely treacherous; a wrong turn will send you tumbling down the side of the mountain. The snow cuts down on visibility and the narrow passageways are sure to
How to Play

2P Last Man Standing
Two players fight to the end with an identical list of vehicles. The players alternate choosing vehicles - Player 1 chooses the first vehicle, Player 2 chooses the second, Player 1 the third, etc. As each vehicle is destroyed, the player uses the next car on his/her list. The winner is the one who destroys all of his/her opponent's vehicles.
Energy Attacks

Repair Stations
Located in each battleground are Repair Stations (look for the "+" symbol on the Radar). Drive up the ramp and the vehicle's structure will be restored. Use them sparingly, because the Repair Stations are designed for only a limited number of repairs.
Items & Weapons
MACHINE GUN
The standard Machine Gun is good for cutting down any minor obstacles that cross your path. Its ammunition is unlimited, but pay careful attention to the Machine Gun Overheat Light.
MACHINE GUN UPGRADE
The Machine Gun Upgrade increases the Machine Gun's rate of fire and inflicts slightly more damage than the standard Machine Gun. The amount of ammunition is limited.
HOMING
The Homing missile has great tracking ability, relentlessly hunting down the nearest opponent. However, its warhead inflicts minimal damage and requires multiple hits to take down an opponent.
FIRE
The Fire missile strikes a balance between the lethality of the Power missile and the tracking ability of the Homing missile. Its scaled-down homing ability increases the chance of hitting opponents.
POWER
Fire the Power missile and anything in its path will be destroyed, as this warhead packs enough explosive power to level a small building. However, it lacks any tracking ability, limiting its long-range usage.
GAS CAN
This explosive weapon can be fired forward, hurling a large Gas Can that can be detonated by pressing the Fire Weapon button again or upon impact. It can also be dropped behind for unsuspecting opponents, where it can continuously charge up for a destructive blast.
RICO
The Ricochet weapon's disc-shaped design allows it to reflect off walls without exploding. Skillfully ricocheting it before impact can award a "Bank Shot Bonus" with heavily increased damage.
ENV
The Environment weapon's abilities are battleground-based and will trigger attacks from environmental objects once fired. Not all battlegrounds have Environment attacks, so experimentation is key.
SPECIAL
The Special Attack is different for each vehicle, with some even capable of being fired backward. Consult the Characters/Vehicles descriptions for an explanation of each Special Attack.
SKILL-BASED PICK-UPS
These pick-ups offer some of the most destructive weapons available, randomly awarding one of three skill-based weapons that require more technique to use effectively than other pick-ups.
RETICLE
The Reticle weapon offers one of the strongest attacks, where a targeting reticle appears on a locked-on opponent, changing color to indicate the number of homing missiles that will be sent when the Fire Weapon button is pressed a second time.
SAT
The Satellite weapon reigns down terror from above, sending a barrage of missiles skyward to impact a targeting reticle on the ground. The longer the missiles stay in the air, the more damage will be caused upon impact.
ZOOMY
The Zoomy weapon fires a barrage of ten missiles at opponents. Scoring a hit with all ten missiles will reward the player with a large damage bonus.
HEALTH
Health pick-ups make quick, minor repairs to your vehicle, providing enough health to reach a Repair Station for major repairs if extensively damaged.
TURBO
Each vehicle is equipped with Turbo boost, activated by quickly pressing the Gas button twice, causing your vehicle to surge forward. Nitro bottles can be picked up to refill the Turbo Meter.
BLACK CUBES
These mysterious Black Cubes unlock secret battlegrounds for you to fight in. They are well-hidden and only found in certain levels.
HELICOPTERS
Helicopters deliver pick-ups to contestants, cycling through different items every few seconds. Time your approach to grab the pick-up you desire before destroying the helicopter.

Billy Ray Stillwell, a simple farmer, drives the Junkyard Dog, a run-down tow truck with a launchable spiked ball as its Special Attack.

SHADOW
Raven, who despises the 'in-crowd' at school, stole a hearse named Shadow, which launches an explosive 'shadow' along the ground that travels towards its target and can be detonated in a fiery blast.
SWEET TOOTH
