Based on the summer popcorn flick, that is actually based on the 1969 crime classic of the same name, The Italian Job is a racing game where you're given an objective and a general direction, but you have free roam of the city to get there. This enables you to find shortcuts to cut time, ramps to score big air bonus points, and, of course, race like a madman through oncoming traffic as you try to shave a few seconds by speeding the wrong way down a freeway off ramp.
