If you like Destruction Derby, you ain't seen nothing until you've seen Carmageddon.
CARMAGEDDON 2 DRIVERS
Astute drivers will recognize some of the environments as being duplicates, though the actual routes through the areas are different.
You can drive anywhere, with few limits (if you want to finish a race, you might want to stay on the marked portions of the track) and where most racing games are content with 3-8 tracks, Carmageddon gives you a remarkably generous 36 tracks. The environment for each race is enormous and free-form. Each car has a completely different feel, with the small cars having tight turning radii and good handling, while the big, heavy cars turn slowly and tend to oversteer at the merest hint of a turn.Īs good as the car models are, it's the gameworld that really shines. Violence aside, racing games are all about physics, and Carmageddon has a perfect driving "feel." With a racing game, whether it feels realistic or not is more important than whether it's actually realistic, and the models for all of the vehicles in the game are perfect. For particularly inspiring deaths, you may be awarded bonuses for "extra style" or "artistic impression." The tracks have a lot of jumps and hills, and the inevitable flips and spins can result in a "cunning style bonus." Power-ups range from the typical (full repairs, extra time) to the bizarre (a "jelly" suspension or the "pedestrian extro-bastard ray"). There are three different ways to win a race: you can win it outright, by completing X number of laps or by destroying all of your opponents or killing every pedestrian in the environment (the latter is unlikely, considering there can be more than 500 in a race). If the thought of killing people makes you squeamish, pretend the guys in suits are your ex-boss, the men or women in bathing suits are Calvin Klein models, the punker dudes are whiny Gen-X'ers, and perhaps most gratifying of all, the guys in white suits are those dancing idiots in the Intel MMX commercials. Unlike most race games, the way you increase the timer is not by reaching different stages, but instead by damaging other cars, or more often than not, running over pedestrians. There is a timer that counts down when it hits zero, the race is over.
CARMAGEDDON 2 UPGRADE
The structure of Carmageddon is like most arcade race games - run a race, get money and upgrade your car. But we're talking about games, not psychology. It combines driving and manslaughter in such a way that could be disturbing if it wasn't so completely exaggerated and cartoon-y.
CARMAGEDDON 2 PC
"The debate over whether passively experiencing or actively participating in a violent act on your PC has any influence whatsoever on gamers will likely be renewed with the release of Carmageddon, a hyper-violent driving game. Steve Bauman of Computer Games magazine says it all in his review:
CARMAGEDDON 2 FULL
The world's first high-speed internal organ liberation simulator is back in full 3D! The slaughter is bloodier, the body parts fly further, and the destruction is heavier.
