Title Year Released
4D Sports Driving (Stunts) 1990 AKA Stunts, the veteran driving game featuring wacky race courses with insanely huge jumps. Reviewed by Rik.
Big Red Racing 1996 Cartoony dump-truck and speedboat racing.
Car and Driver 1992 Videogames are the only context in which Stoo should be put in command of fast cards.
Colin McRae Rally 2.0 2000 You know, there was a time when no-one would even think of releasing a game with the word 'Colin' in the title. One successful rally series later, and now everyone's doing it (okay, maybe not).
Driver 1999 Rik prepares to put the hammer down in this 70s racer, wasting gallons of fuel in the process. Still, I suppose Prius Racing wouldn't really sell...

Lotus: The Ultimate Challenge 1993 Old-school racing from the 16-bit era.
MegaRace 1993 FFG is proud to present the game that squashes reality like a bug. No, seriously.

Midnight Club II 2003 Race on the streets of LA, Paris and Tokyo in this city-based racer.
Midtown Madness 1999 Street racing, freeform city driving, or in my own case crashing haplessly into every tree and lampost. Reviewed by Rik.

Need for Speed 3: Hot Pursuit 1998 Another entry in the prolific racing series.
Need for Speed: Porsche 2000 2000 Yet another Need for Speed game - this time with more Porsche than ever before.
Need for Speed: Road Challenge 1999 Absolutely the last Need for Speed game we review on this site. For now. Probably.
Need for Speed: Underground 2003 Absolutely the last...oh, you know. Well, we tried to stay away, but this one was all shiny and whatnot.
Rally Championship Xtreme 2001 There are more rally games on the PC than you can shake a stick at. Rik tries to ignore the Xtremely naff title and takes this one for a spin.
Road Rash 1996 Road rash, apparently, is a term used informally to describe the kind of injuries caused by falling onto road surfaces at high speed. A RASH caused by the ROAD, see? And all this time I just thought it was just a rubbish name for a game. Was it just me? Oh, it was. I'll get me coat...
Sega Rally 2 1999 Rally. By Sega. It's also a sequel. Oh yes.
Test Drive 2: The Duel 1989 More road racing - from the series that started it all. Reviewed by Rik.
The Need for Speed 1995 Rik tears down country roads in fancy cars that neither of us will ever be able to afford...
TOCA 2: Touring Cars 1998 More four-door fun from Codemasters. Rik secures the shopping and makes sure the family's all strapped in.
TOCA Race Driver 2003 Ever wanted to be a racing driver but just didn't have the time and/or money? Well, now you can, thanks to the awesome power of technology.
TOCA Touring Car Championship 1997 Rik flogs his Vectra around Silverstone; as far as racing goes it's even less glamorous than rally, but something do on a rainy Saturday afternoon at least.
Trickstyle 1999 In the future, something implausible happens which means that people have to race each other on floating hoverboards. Now you, yes YOU, can be one of those lucky people.
