Carmageddon 64

Postby crusto on Tue May 01, 2012 9:46 pm

Is this game rare or something? I got it for Christmas years back when I had my N64 and never played it. Its been hanging around in various cupboards in my house ever since. I was gonna throw it on Ebay but noticed a few weird prices on there, one being £99 :shock: . Ive googled it but all I tend to get is shocking reviews rather than any proper info. Does anyone on here know what the crack is?

I actually never spent much time trying it out myself but it's pretty well known how bad it is. I had a loose cart of it once and had trouble getting rid of it. I didn't buy it on purpose though, it came with some other stuff, obviously.

The only thing good about this game was N64 Mag's verdict on it.

Worst game I've ever played. That's pretty much all.

A crying shame that the conversions were so bad as the PC game is proper ace. One of the best games I have ever played.

Agreed. The PC version is the definitive version, especially with the splat pack. The only version thats worse than the N64 version is the PS1 version, which is an insult to gamers everywhere. Make a bloody great coaster, though. I will say that I did enjoy the N64 version somewhat, but only slightly, mind.
