What a memory this unlocked!! The physics of this game made you feel like you were 100% driving a real car. I almost want to play it again now, but honestly I bet that not being able to actually drive as a kid was half of what made it so mesmerizing.
Now it might just be like driving to work :(
My brother and I were, like, 7 and 10, respectively, when we played this. Some things on the list were obvious, others (the heck is a "slalom"?!) we had to guess just by doing every possible thing you could do with a car. A couple day's work, bada-bing bada-boom.
People definitely would've given up nowadays.
I had a shitty non FFB wheel. So much easier. The 180 was almost impossible with keyboard
I still can hear this picture!
Luckily you could skip it, so I was able to play the rest of the game.
Later a gaming magazine had a guide with an optimal route, that helped me to finally beat it. (after hours of practice)
I had no trouble with this as a kid, seeing people always complain about it is wild. I even picked up the game again last year on emulator to try it again and best it first try once I fixed input lag issues
You wanna talk impossible?
The actual last mission of this game on the hard difficulty might as well be RNG for now fucking hard dodging the NPCs that spawn are, as they're faster than you
