Race fast-moving, futuristic vehicles in a heart-pounding challenge to the ultimate finish line in Butt-Ugly Martians: Zoom or Doom! for the Nintendo GameCube and PlayStation2. This story-driven, 3D action racing game allows boys ages six and older to choose from seven favourite characters - from the popular television series - each equipped with their own space vehicle.

Released this November from Vivendi Universal Publishing Kid's Division, Butt-Ugly Martians: Zoom or Doom! will feature nine highly-differentiated racing tracks, two-player capability using split-screen simultaneous action, hidden bonuses and drag racing tracks, and a special "Assist Mode" option with simplified game controls and easier handling.

Butt-Ugly Martians: Zoom or Doom! will also include a unique "Taunts" system, an interactive game element which allows players to distract opponents and adversely affect their racing performance. Using this system, players can strategically taunt an opponent - which forces them to reply - breaking their concentration and temporarily causing their vehicle to lose speed.

In-Your-Face Action!
Emperor Bog is fed up with the Butt-Ugly Martians' antics, so in order to continue their assignment on Earth, the Butt-Uglies must win an interstellar racing championship, the Martian Conqueror's Cup. Players will taunt each other while fighting off enemy attacks at every turn - in super-slick O.M.A.B.s (One Martian Air Bikes) across nine intergalactic landscapes - as they race, chase and conquer opponents. Kids can victoriously pilot their way through the collection of outrageous races by becoming their favourite Butt-Ugly hero or as an evil alien bent on destruction.

Play As The Butt-Uglies and Their Adversaries
The Butt-Uglies are three unlikely heroes who defy their evil leader's orders to conquer Earth, and instead, fall in love with our planet and defend their adopted home against invading aliens. In Butt-Ugly Martians: Zoom or Doom!, boys can choose to play as one of the courageous Martians or one of the bad guys they have to overcome.
The seven playable characters include:

• B.Bop-A-Luna -- The group's leader. Sharp, bright and impulsive. Sometimes guilty of not always thinking things out to their conclusion. Rough on the outside with a heart of gold.
  
• 2-T-Fru-T -- A Tech Commando. If something needs doing then 2-T's your man (or Martian). He can make or rig almost anything! Always ready and willing, but not usually the first to try something new.
  
• Do-Wah Diddy -- Perhaps the most levelheaded of the three Martians. Kind-hearted, soft and sensitive. He won't strike until provoked, but when he does, watch out!
  
• Stoat Muldoon -- A professional alien hunter with his own TV show "Muldoon, Alien Hunter." He's a by the book, no nonsense kind of guy with zero tolerance towards any alien. All are a threat!
  
• Jax The Conqueror -- An incredibly boastful soldier driven by the need to conquer. Defeated by the Butt-Uglies in a previous clash, he's mega-dangerous and out for revenge!
  
• Gorgon -- A foul-smelling, shape-shifting alien from the Planet Gorg. He becomes extremely ferocious and easily annoyed when cornered, so Butt-Uglies beware!
  
• Chitzok -- A powerful alien warrior employed by Emperor Bog to speed up the Martian invasion of Earth. He considers the Butt-Uglies to be weak and unworthy of the invasion, and relishes nothing more than the chance to show he's the right alien for the job.
