Despite some wonky controls and a bland art style, Scrap Metal is a fun car combat game. The variety of missions will hold your interest and the upgrade system allows for a lot of customization. There are definitely some arcade thrills to be had here if you can get the hang of the controls. Fifteen bucks might be a bit steep, but it's definitely cheaper than wrecking your own car.
