Reception

Top Gear: Dare Devil was received poorly by critics. GameSpot's Ryan Davis wrote that "There is a good deal of potential here, but Top Gear Dare Devil's deeply flawed physics engine, lack of gameplay variations, and frame rate issues keep it in the shadow of Crazy Taxi and make it a game that you should avoid.". IGN also gave low marks saying that the game is "an acquired taste and is something that should be rented first before you decide to pick it up".
