Awesome list, thanks for making this video and for the shout-out! Violent Run, Lucky and Wild, and Split Second Velocity were new ones to me. I also like Vigilante 8 more than the Twisted Metal games so totally agree with that. Besides the all-out combat racers and arena combat games, there's also a bunch that are mission-based or even sort-of RPGs, and I love those too. Some ones to check out: Car Battler Joe (GBA), Interstate '76 series (PC), Hard Truck Apocalypse (PC), Autoduel (C64 and more), RoadKill ( GameCube, PS1). And for more recent games, Mad Max and Rage 2 are both brilliant.
Twisted Metal 2 - best driver/vechicle roster Vigilante 8 - many possibilities Rogue Trip V2012 - crazy good soundtrack You can't go wrong with any of these games if you like the genre.
Matey awesome upload, I appreciate all the memories you brought back for me when I saw some of these games. Supercars 2 when I finally got hold of my own coffee I played that thing for bloody days . And as sad as it may seem when it comes to chase HQ just the title screen graphics used to blow my friends minds when they would come over and see the colourful picture on the screen. Don’t don’t even get me started on Mario karts me and my friend was so competitive for a solid year there that we were stripping .01 seconds off each other’s lap times until I got down to the point where it was just impossible to beat. And PS1 destruction Durby we actually took my mates PS1 down to the local arcade and the owner (our friend ) let us set it up on the TV next to the counter and as we were regulars we knew pretty much everyone that would come and go in that place so we would charge them $.50 to try the last one minute in destruction Derby and if they could we would give them $1 . I’m not sure what mode or level it was but all I know is we made a lot of money doing that. It might not of been a lot of money now but back then we were making $20-$30 an hour by letting people play that game while we were playing other games in the arcade👌🏻😁👊🏻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻
I think it was a bit of a fifa , pes situation with vigilante 8 and twisted metal and i was in the vigilante 8 court. I have played it though and it is good... just lacks the nostalgia factor as i didnt have it as a kid
During the "Rock and Roll Racing" clip one can clearly hear a "computerized" version of "Highway Star", by Deep Purple; what a song, what a band! I am glad the programmers included it in the game's music score
@@oldstylegaming Wow, one of my all-time favourite songs! Thanks for telling me, and congratulations to the programmers of this game, double thumbs up 👍👍
Superb list! I spent an unholy amount of time playing Racing Destruction Set on the C64 with my brother. Such great times building our own tracks and then blowing each other up racing them!
Excellent vid... One game I used to play on the Amiga 1200 that fits this category and that I used to love was XTreme Racing. And good PD games also on the Amiga are Battle Cars 1 and 2.
Great list mate. So many memories as this was one of my favorite genres. Carmageddon wasn't as much banned in the UK as adapted. The pedestrians were changed to zombies, and the blood was replaced with green ooz. This allowed it's release until the action against it was over-turned, and a "blood patch" was released through magazine disks. The modern remake is awesome btw :) One you missed is Overlander. Much like Roadblasters but heaps better. Had and enjoyed it on both Spectrum and Amiga. Great game.
Too bad you didn't put Death Rally in. By far best top down combat racer out there. And it has Duke Nukem in it. And you can be sponsored by death itself!
Great list as usual but I was surprised not to see Combat Cars for Megadrive on there, which for me is one of the best top down racers ever. As for Split Second, I absolutely loved it when it came out on PC. Unfortunately it came out the same time as Blur, which had a massive marketing campaign touting it as Mario Kart for adults and inevitably won out. I bought both, and Split Second is the only one I still play today.
Car battler? a term I've never heard tbh but it makes sense to have a sub-genre where these games fit in. Some great games here m8 lots of good memories, and a good few I've never seen before. Most nostalgic for me has to be Vigilante 8, I absolutely battered that game on the good old PS1, good times! Cool vid :)
No sure why but you videos have not been showing up when you upload them so i thought you was on a break only to see your amiga mni video show up today so i check you chan out an boom i have miss a fair few videos. Ahhhh Road Blasters and Chase HQ and Super Cars 2 man these was the days loved them games so much. Great video as always buddy oh and i had a hat like that as well back in the day haha.
Great list ! One amazing game is missing though :) The game is: Death Rally - PC DOS game. It's a top down racing battler game with bombs, cannons etc. it's truly great :)
I can't help noticing the black sky in Burnout 3, which is a problem with PCSX2's emulation. Luckily, there's an easy fix for that. While you're in the menus, press F9 before you actually start an event. This will switch to software rendering. Start the event and once it's done loading and the event starts, press F9 again to switch back to hardware rendering. You only need to do this once and it will stay fixed for that session. This also works in Burnout Revenge and Burnout Dominator. Strangely, it also works to fix the missing graphics in a game called Portal Runner. Oh, if you notice a ghosting/double image effect with the graphics in Burnout, go into the Video plugin settings, enable hacks and set the "skipdraw" to 3 or more and that should fix it. I'm still using 1.4.0 (old system), so the newer versions may have changed where it's located.
My favorites are: Supercars 2 on the Amiga (for classic top down action), Interstate 76 on PC (for it's brilliant atmosphere and story driven gameplay) and Mashed: Fully Loaded for the PS2 (for hilarious multiplayer fun).
I had a feeling Action Fighter would be on this list.. the bane of my Master-System-childhood. What a frustrating experience that game was for young me ;-) ... My favourites from the PSX era would be Wipeout 2097, Rollcage and Twisted Metal 2.
Some great games.. A couple of the retro ones are available on modern compilations to be played legit if anyone keen, I can go through it again and make a precise list.
Carmageddon was revolutionary but imo part 2 was even better. I would also probably have tried to squeeze Burning Rubber/Bump n Jump on there somewhere. Played that a lot on the c64.
I loved Vigilante 8: 2nd Offense on the Dreamcast but I only ever played it in Arcade Mode and would use cheats that made it a lot more chaotic. You can never go wrong with Mario Kart, lots of memories of playing Double Dash with my sister even though she wasn't really in to games and I don't remember ever playing any other games with her. I used to love playing Mario Kart Wii online with friends too. Burnout 3 is just pure gaming perfection. Split/Second on 360 is one of the few games I've ever 100% finished, those time trials are absolutely brutal. It's such a shame the sequel got canned after that ending. Blur is another game worth checking out, it's criminally overlooked and underrated but loads of fun. Also quick mentions to the FlatOut series, Lego Racers, Re-Volt, Street Racers and while I've not played it a lot Crossout is a lot of fun.
lol i was more a Vigilante 8 kid...you gotta remember that this was way back when games werent as accessible as they are now so you had to choose...and i chose V8 thats why its here loads of nostalgia factor for me
just like you said mate, MAME just cannot do Roadblasters justice, in the arcade was it was an awesome experience, that steering wheel was just perfect. Sometimes, damn, emulation just cant match the real thing.. same with Powerdrift, I'd even buy the hydraulic version if I could! What an experience!
Yeah powerdrift and buggy boy are my nemesis in emulation... i actually started a powerdrift comparison but gave up when trying to get footage of the arcade
Split Seond is a great game. I haven't played the PSP version, but the console versions are fantastic. Also, I want to shout out Wreckfest on current gen consoles and PC. It's just like Destruction Derby with better graphics, crashes and destruction.
Playstion one Toy Story Racer is my fave go to combat racer. IMO it is a 10/10 game. Speed Kings on og Xbox is a beautiful arcade fast motorbike combat racer IMO.
IMHO the bear car battler EVER is Interstate 76. I think it’s kind of a precursor to Vigilante 8. It features customisable cars, 70 theme, poetry and expansive levels in the desert. I enjoyed Combat Cars on the smd too. Blur is another one.
Yeah, Interstate '76 is brilliant, and Interstate '82 was disappointing comparatively but was actually pretty good once I played through it all. And yeah, Vigilante 8 is set in the same universe. Combat Cars is also brilliant, played that one right through.
Lucky and wilde! I've been racking my brains over the name of that arcade. That was the one with the steering wheel and gun wasn't it? Carmaggedon was great Also split second is better on xbox lol
Hi OSG another great video my favourite was CHASE HQ closely followed by road blasters and Super Mario kart on SNES Also destruction derby on PS1 is great that one that holds the most nostalgia for me is but I can mice from Mars on the SNES when I met my wife in 1998 her brother had biker mice from Mars on the SNES it was great and it’s definitely worth a play similar to the rock ‘n’ roll game have a go and let me know what you think Thanks DANNY
Great list, I was thinking he was going to leave off carmageddon because its a pc game and pc games don't crop up often on your channel...Have you ever seen the N64 version. it's shocking! One of those games that i bet console owners probably thought ' What are PC gamers so excited about?!'
That carmageddon game, who was you imagining those run down people to be in the football stadium? Sunderland, Newcastle, or Middlesbrough? 😂👍 Destruction derby was probably my favourite on the list. Do you think sega Saturn's sega rally could be considered for a list such as this? That's my all time favourite car racing game.👍
No but it could have been on. These are games that i had or played growing up. I never had a CD32 but that game is great and on my recent CD32 games video
@@oldstylegaming Yep. I watched that after this video. I had an A1200 with a CD-ROM drive but some CD32 games didn't run that well with it. Keep up the good work!
i used to play this combat racing game which also had an option for multiplayer. The game was played on zsnes or kgen emulator on pc. Snes or sega genesis. It's an overhead racing laps game similar to biker mice from mars. The vehicles or players were hippie school bus driver , ice cream truck, scientist etc. Also had weapons we could use by running over a blue spot. Sometimes were chased by a dinosaur, or getting smashed by a huge gorilla at the side of the road. Can anyone name it?
I've been racking my brains over this one, I have a semi-respectable knowledge of games from this era, and the only thing I can come up with is maybe one of the Micro Machines games, or maybe a more obscure title that's exclusive to Japan like Battle Cross or something.
Yea, I've looked all over, most people recommend twisted metal, but it's not. The memory is so clear when i played it back in the snes era.... and I've watched more than 40 hours of youtube videos on all snes games, still am unable to find it. I've played it on both emulators zsnes98 and kgen98.
@@FrozenVision11 When you say you played it on those two emulators you are narrowing it down considerably, except I still can't figure out what it is. You mentioned weapons or power ups by running over blue spots. A game called Power Drive has that set up, and was out for SNES and Mega drive, and had isometric graphics akin to Biker Mice From Mars. Unfortunately, I don't ever recall seeing giant gorillas or dinosaurs in that rather realistic rally game. Can you give any other info that might help? What were the graphics like? The music and sound? Were the colours cartoonish? Muted? Pastelle-shaded? Was the SNES version of the game different from the Megadrive version? If so, in what ways? Anything at all could help. Also, if you're watching those long videos that show every game and not seeing it, to me that says one of two things; Either, you're misremembering this game in some way or another. Maybe it came out in the arcade, or maybe you misremember which emulators you played it on (this doesn't seem likely to me, you seem quite specific about the emulators you played it on and I have no reason not to believe your memory is correct) Or the game in question possibly came out for the Japanese or EU markets but not the US markets, or maybe for the US but not the EU markets, or perm any combination possible therein. A lot of these videos, most of them probably, focus only on the games released in North America and they treat games that did not get a release there as if they didn't exist, which means great classic games like The Firemen often go without a mention in such compilations. I'm therefore led to suspect as a distinct possibility that this game came out in the EU or Japan, but not the US in the case of both the Megadrive and Super Nintendo.
@@thegreathadoken6808 I asked my brother too, we remember it distinctively, it was a lot similar to biker mice from Mars, some of the characters which i remember were a mad scientist, a school bus driven by hippie, an ice cream truck etc.. i don't remember the other characters as i usually picked the bus and my brother, the mad scientist... also the cars could get squashed, and when running over a blue or 3 arrow shapped sign you could get abilities like speed up or some weapons like a rocket, you could take out the opponent in front of you with. It was catoonish. The colors were like a combination of muted or somewhat pastel depending on the next level of maps. I'm trying hard to remember... I've also looked through the neogeo games or other emulators to see if i was mistaken, but i know it 100 percent that i first played it on a kgen98 emulator then zsnes98 emulator which now has been upgraded to snes emulator. I've been looking for this game for several years, and i think your right, it might have been a Japanese or a different release, which is why i can't see it in the videos uploaded on RUclips because they didn't add them. Every few months i start look for it again, and it drives me insane.....
quite a predictable list, there were some games i'd never heard of and some where i said to myself, omg how did i forget that one, turbo charge was a great game and i think it was made to say, look outrun programmers you can make a good racing game on the c64, speed rumbler was one where i said omg and made me think, that could have been a precursor to GTA or where they got the idea for it

Aw, man, you missed two of the greatest car battlers ever: Interstate '76 and Rollcage!
I played the bejeezes out of those two games back in the day.
I recommend Rogue Trip: Vacation 2012 on the PS1, it's essentially Twisted Metal mixed with Crazy Taxi. Great game!
ill check that out
WE LOVE YOU LARRY!
Twisted Metal 2 - best driver/vechicle roster
Vigilante 8 - many possibilities
Rogue Trip V2012 - crazy good soundtrack
You can't go wrong with any of these games if you like the genre.

Yeah ive played it on c64 but the spectrum version is way better
I found this channel from a mention 8 Bit Show and Tell a few months back :D
I am surprised no one mentions Death Rally.
great list. crazy to think vigilante 8 and destruction derby are now retro, feels just like yesterday.
Great list, will have to check out a couple of them I haven't played
Some awesome games on the list.lots I played back in the day and enjoyed. As u say split second was brilliant
loved supercars 2, been playing it alot on the mini. great video mate.
Nice to finally see some love for Split Second, I have it for PSP and PS3 and they are both Amazing!

Flat out 2! Best smash up racing game ever with a kick ass soundtrack. It has everything you must try it.
Split/Second is much better on the 360 and don’t forget Blur 👍🏻
I must mention Battle wheels on the Atari lynx
I had a feeling Action Fighter would be on this list.. the bane of my Master-System-childhood. What a frustrating experience that game was for young me ;-) ... My favourites from the PSX era would be Wipeout 2097, Rollcage and Twisted Metal 2.
Great list. I'd also add S.C.A.R.S to that, I always enjoyed playing it on PS1 and N64 and Twisted Metal on ps1 too :)
Some great games.. A couple of the retro ones are available on modern compilations to be played legit if anyone keen, I can go through it again and make a precise list.
Carmageddon was revolutionary but imo part 2 was even better.
I would also probably have tried to squeeze Burning Rubber/Bump n Jump on there somewhere. Played that a lot on the c64.
I'd also add Roadkill on the CD32. It's also more of a Racer with weapons rather than a pure battler, kinda like Super Cars.
Burnout 3 on the original xbox let you play your own custom music that you had saved on the harddrive. It was class.
I loved Vigilante 8: 2nd Offense on the Dreamcast but I only ever played it in Arcade Mode and would use cheats that made it a lot more chaotic.
You can never go wrong with Mario Kart, lots of memories of playing Double Dash with my sister even though she wasn't really in to games and I don't remember ever playing any other games with her. I used to love playing Mario Kart Wii online with friends too.
Burnout 3 is just pure gaming perfection.
Split/Second on 360 is one of the few games I've ever 100% finished, those time trials are absolutely brutal. It's such a shame the sequel got canned after that ending.
Blur is another game worth checking out, it's criminally overlooked and underrated but loads of fun.
Also quick mentions to the FlatOut series, Lego Racers, Re-Volt, Street Racers and while I've not played it a lot Crossout is a lot of fun.
I loved ReVolt
Twisted Metal for Playstation has to be on here my friend. Just glad you included Road Rash. That's 1 of my favorite games.
lol i was more a Vigilante 8 kid...you gotta remember that this was way back when games werent as accessible as they are now so you had to choose...and i chose V8 thats why its here loads of nostalgia factor for me
OSG retro gaming living legend. Hope your well my man 💪❤
Few games I would add to your list ;
Racing Gears Advance / GBA
Street Racer / Saturn
Turbo Esprit / Spectrum 48k
Great list. Surprised twisted metal wasn't on there like as I loved that one, but don't know if that isn't retro enough. Class stuff osg 👏👍🏴
Twisted metal is good but i never played it back then
just like you said mate, MAME just cannot do Roadblasters justice, in the arcade was it was an awesome experience, that steering wheel was just perfect.

Yeah powerdrift and buggy boy are my nemesis in emulation... i actually started a powerdrift comparison but gave up when trying to get footage of the arcade
Spat out my coffee when I got the end of the video and zero mention of twisted metal world tour or the psp spiritual successor.
Flat out on psp also
I had one PSP game on, i had to mix the systems up a bit
Split Seond is a great game. I haven't played the PSP version, but the console versions are fantastic. Also, I want to shout out Wreckfest on current gen consoles and PC. It's just like Destruction Derby with better graphics, crashes and destruction.
Playstion one Toy Story Racer is my fave go to combat racer. IMO it is a 10/10 game. Speed Kings on og Xbox is a beautiful arcade fast motorbike combat racer IMO.
Great video. I like Ray Tracers on Playstation, looks like Chase HQ.
Road Rash on the 3DO is on my top 5 Racing Battle Games.
Thats a great game on the 3DO
Destruction Derby 64 on the N64 is my fave.
Great list. 👍 Street Racer on snes might of scraped on the list imo. 4 player split screen on a snes!
Can’t wait to sideload Super Cars 2 onto the Amiga500 mini 👍🏻
IMHO the bear car battler EVER is Interstate 76. I think it’s kind of a precursor to Vigilante 8. It features customisable cars, 70 theme, poetry and expansive levels in the desert.

another great video
my favourite was CHASE HQ closely followed by road blasters and Super Mario kart on SNES
Also destruction derby on PS1 is great
that one that holds the most nostalgia for me is but I can mice from Mars on the SNES
when I met my wife in 1998 her brother had biker mice from Mars on the SNES
it was great and it’s definitely worth a play similar to the rock ‘n’ roll game have a go and let me know what you think
Thanks DANNY
Yeah i nearly put biker mice in that game is class
considering some dubious choices on this list, I think LED Storm definitely should have been included
Dubious?
I like this genre...anyone remember Car Wars, the tabletop game?

I’m a C64 guy but spect spy hunter is mint
That carmageddon game, who was you imagining those run down people to be in the football stadium? Sunderland, Newcastle, or Middlesbrough? 😂👍
Destruction derby was probably my favourite on the list.
Do you think sega Saturn's sega rally could be considered for a list such as this? That's my all time favourite car racing game.👍
Newcastle
@@oldstylegaming 😂
This list is incomplete without Death Rally. Only racing game I could play for hours. For me it should be high there.
For me it was Interstate 76 on the PC excellent game
Roadkill on the Amiga can be on the list too.
Defo
Saw Carmageddon on here, and I was more of a fan of the 2nd, if only because of the Iron Maiden songs in the sound track
Apart of the ones in the previous comments, I miss LED Storm/Mad Gear in the list
Violent Run is similar to Burning Rubber in C64.
Flatout 2 !
Maybe the first windows game i wver played flat out
My favourite game was Fatal Racing (Whiplash) on MS-DOS.
Ive never heard of that ill check it out
You have played Twisted Metal Black, right?
did you see the new A500 mini announced for next year
Yeah hopefully might get one for review
Racing Destruction Set? Stunt Car Racer?
Racing Destruction set could have been but Stunt Car Racer aint i dont think...its one of my fav games though
Cool games
annoying thing about mario kart is all the car finish in the same order, its really hard to disrupt that. lol
Wait so it was the dogs balls...and that's a good thing? Interesting...
yeah its a saying over here in the UK that means good
@@oldstylegaming
Sweet, I learned something new! ;)
Have to agree with a few others gotta have twisted metal in there.....fantastic 2 player fun on the PlayStation
Racing Destruction Set bruv?

Its still a great game
No Twisted Metal? how is that possible?
You forgot Twisted Metal
There lots of other good ones like Fire and forget, apb, ect
No RC Pro Am I or II ?

I've been racking my brains over this one, I have a semi-respectable knowledge of games from this era, and the only thing I can come up with is maybe one of the Micro Machines games, or maybe a more obscure title that's exclusive to Japan like Battle Cross or something.
Yea, I've looked all over, most people recommend twisted metal, but it's not. The memory is so clear when i played it back in the snes era.... and I've watched more than 40 hours of youtube videos on all snes games, still am unable to find it. I've played it on both emulators zsnes98 and kgen98.
@@FrozenVision11 When you say you played it on those two emulators you are narrowing it down considerably, except I still can't figure out what it is. You mentioned weapons or power ups by running over blue spots. A game called Power Drive has that set up, and was out for SNES and Mega drive, and had isometric graphics akin to Biker Mice From Mars. Unfortunately, I don't ever recall seeing giant gorillas or dinosaurs in that rather realistic rally game.
Can you give any other info that might help? What were the graphics like? The music and sound? Were the colours cartoonish? Muted? Pastelle-shaded? Was the SNES version of the game different from the Megadrive version? If so, in what ways?
Anything at all could help.
Also, if you're watching those long videos that show every game and not seeing it, to me that says one of two things;
Either, you're misremembering this game in some way or another. Maybe it came out in the arcade, or maybe you misremember which emulators you played it on (this doesn't seem likely to me, you seem quite specific about the emulators you played it on and I have no reason not to believe your memory is correct)
Or the game in question possibly came out for the Japanese or EU markets but not the US markets, or maybe for the US but not the EU markets, or perm any combination possible therein. A lot of these videos, most of them probably, focus only on the games released in North America and they treat games that did not get a release there as if they didn't exist, which means great classic games like The Firemen often go without a mention in such compilations.
I'm therefore led to suspect as a distinct possibility that this game came out in the EU or Japan, but not the US in the case of both the Megadrive and Super Nintendo.
@@thegreathadoken6808 I asked my brother too, we remember it distinctively, it was a lot similar to biker mice from Mars, some of the characters which i remember were a mad scientist, a school bus driven by hippie, an ice cream truck etc.. i don't remember the other characters as i usually picked the bus and my brother, the mad scientist... also the cars could get squashed, and when running over a blue or 3 arrow shapped sign you could get abilities like speed up or some weapons like a rocket, you could take out the opponent in front of you with. It was catoonish. The colors were like a combination of muted or somewhat pastel depending on the next level of maps. I'm trying hard to remember... I've also looked through the neogeo games or other emulators to see if i was mistaken, but i know it 100 percent that i first played it on a kgen98 emulator then zsnes98 emulator which now has been upgraded to snes emulator. I've been looking for this game for several years, and i think your right, it might have been a Japanese or a different release, which is why i can't see it in the videos uploaded on RUclips because they didn't add them. Every few months i start look for it again, and it drives me insane.....
You look like you were a big lad at age 11
Lol i was tiny ...the smallest in my year
@@oldstylegaming I see. Maybe the arcade machine was one of those miniature ones hehe
quite a predictable list, there were some games i'd never heard of and some where i said to myself, omg how did i forget that one, turbo charge was a great game and i think it was made to say, look outrun programmers you can make a good racing game on the c64, speed rumbler was one where i said omg and made me think, that could have been a precursor to GTA or where they got the idea for it
It is very gta1 like
Ps Twisted metal and amiga roadkill
so no racing destruction set on the c64 then............. :/
This game defo could have been on here
Great 😀🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
I was certain there would be a micro machines game in this list but no
not really car battler though is it? or is there some guns in one of the versions?
@@oldstylegaming micro machines 3 and military deffo had guns, I vaguely remember a version with big sledgehammers on top of the cars too
original burnout on gamecube was way way better........
Its the one real gamecube game i own
