love Top Gear you're going to love this. On the other hand if you don't love Top Gear it probably means you're being given presents by people who don't actually li...
you'll find a whole festival of brand new never seen before daredevilry, plus some stunt footage from the Top Gear telly show and an entire interactive quiz extravaganza.Best of all, whilst you're playing along at home you get to control the action, so if you've ever fancied bungee jumping a caravan, blowing up a white van, or playing skittles with a powersliding car, this is the DVD for you.And when you're bored of the whole thing you can always use the disc as an attractive drinks coaster or, if you're a minicab driver, something to hang from your rear view mirror.
or maybe just your powers of guesswork. That;s not all either because, right there from the comfort of your armchair, you'll get to blow up a load of caravans - and possibly Richard Hammond as well - simply by pushing a button on your remote control.
espcially if you work in a factory gutting chickens, (which I used to do). So in this DVd, featuring stunts and tomfoolery never seen on TV, I show you how to master the dark art of being a Top Gear host, and how to make your own Top gear show. This DVd will change your life forever. Probably. HOW TO MAKE A TOP GEAR FILM IN YOUR OWN HOMEHaven’t got access to the Swiss Alps or the salt flats of Utah? No probs. All you need is for your parents to be out of the house for the day, and a mental stunt biker friend to drop round. ENGINEERING EXCELLENCEDemonstrating engineering excellence is something that should come naturally to a Top Gear presenter. Converting an ice-cream van into a fully-fledged hovercraft should be no problem for Richard then. HOW TO MAKE A TOP GEAR ROAD TESTThe art of the powerslide, talking nonsense whilst not crashing, drag racing the stupidest thing with a jet engine you can find…The secret world of how to make Top Gear road test is all here. THE TOP GEAR WORK ETHICEven on holiday, a Top Gear presenter must be able to knock up a quick action film. Cue a picturesque beach and a Dakar-ready Bowler Nemesis... racing its own 12-tonne support truck. TOP GEAR – A PUBLIC SERVICE“All you ever do is cock about.” That’s a common complaint which breaks our heart. But as I show you with this scientific experiment involving loads of flying bricks and demolished walls, a Top Gear presenter only ever cocks about for the good of mankind. TOP GEAR PASSIONRichard selflessly ventures to Italy, driving the Lamborghini Gallardo Balboni, Ferrari Scuderia and Pagani Zonda Cinque to prove, er… something very important about passion and stuff like that. With an exclusive look at the world of Top Gear Scientific Research, the Top Gear Diet, the Top Gear Presenter’s Wardrobe and the Top Gear complaints procedure, this DVD is the ultimate insight into the Top Gear world

The best DVD game i have ever played, great for top gear fans, motoring fans or basically anyone as only small amounts of car knowledge are required. Hamster (Richard Hammond) presents the whole DVD through voice and video so it feels very similair, and follows the same concept, as a top gear episode.
When you load the dvd you are presented with a screen asking to choose "Billy No Mates"(single player) or "Head to Head". After selecting you are given a short intro by Hamster. In the first game "Keep your Distance" you are shown a photo of a section of a car, you must then choose the correct car name from a list. If you choose the right car you get 5 points towards your total marks, the wrong one and you lose 5 seconds of your time limit. The next round is called "Under the Bonnet" where you are given a short video clip of a car and then given a statistic, i.e. top speed; you are then given a clip of a second card and must decide if the statistic is higher or lower for the second card. A very similar format to the top trumps card game. You play this round twice and gain 10 points for getting one correct so if you get both right you get 20 points. At the end of each round the DVD tells you your current total points. In the third round "The Cool Wall" you are shown 6 cars and must choose if they are cool or un-cool. If you get it right you get points wrong you don't. However there is two cars in there that are seriously un-cool and sub-zero and if you put them in the wrong section you lose points. "Caravan Roulette" the game you have all been waiting for, in this round there is six caravans and Hammond is hiding in one of them, you can decide to blow-up 3 to 5 caravans however if you blow up Hammond you lose points. The more caravans you destroy without killing Hammond the more points you get, so deciding to only destroy 3 won't get as many points as destroying all five. Remember however as soon as Hammond dies you lose all your points. The final round "The need for Speed" is a quick fire question round about cars. You have to answer 15 questions with 10 seconds to answer each question; you get 5 points for a correct answer. Its multiple choice and you get 4 options for each question.
Overall this is definitely the best DVD game I have ever played with all the wit and humour from top gear incorporated well. However it would have been better if it included Clarkson to mix it up a bit (although you can buy another game with the stig presenting, I don't know if its the same with the stig instead or different rounds). Also the game includes some of the best extracts from the show such as when they tried to cross the channel in cars. My final note on the DVD would be the design of all the menus and mini-games which are very well done and incorporate lots of car memorabilia. A must buy for motoring or top gear fans.
