I loved the concept for this game but I found it very easy to play. Yes I am a little old school.
I remember the original Destruction Derby, it was awesome, and only reason I purchased Wreckfest
Not sure I played the second, definitely played the original. Great game anyway
I feel like this classic gets slept on.
Had it on PC. Was super fun!
Amazing game
Yes, absolutely loved it back in the day, and it’s spiritual successor Wreckfest doesn’t disappoint either.
Damn yes! I can still hear the commenters’ excitement!
Start your engine.
Total destruction!
Awesome game, but no splitscreen 😔
I never played 2 but I had the first one! One of the three games I bought when I got my playstation!
The really kept releasing sequels to this. Last game I played was Destruction Derby 64.
“TOTAL DESTRUCTION!”
This was my first ever game. Made me love racing games! I still have the Psygnosis Owl as my pic on Xbox.
Fucking awesome game
Man I had the original on Saturn I think. Loved them both
Chalk Canyon first lap
Loved them both, crazy fun.
Remember the stage that was a giant circle and everybody started on the outside and drove into the middle with the little hill? Good times
Music was lit in this game! Jug was the name of the band
Freestyle tricks in chalk canyon’s jump ?
I remember this like it happened yesterday..
I was 8 (1999)I was in my room playing a demo disc on ps1, it must’ve been a Saturday cause my ma had new neighbours and they had a son that was 12 and he just came straight in my room and just basically took charge of the controller and he stuck on this game and I can honestly say that I haven’t laughed as hard and as long as that ever since, that night I got an extended family that still is a close part of my life. Any time my head starts getting to me and life’s throwing a big load of shit I try my best to remember that night and just how funny it was
Got a PAL AUS version, it has a different cover art 🙂
This, Gran Turismo, and Monster Rancher 2 were on constant rotation.
Wreckfest is great but it doesn’t bring the same amazement that Destruction Derby did. Having that level of physics and car damage in a PS game was mind boggling as a kid.
This was the first PC game I had on my newly built gaming rig back in like 1996 or 97. I loved playing this game.
What sucked, though, is that it came bundled with my matrox mystique video card, so when I upgraded to a Voodoo 2 video card the game wouldn’t work anymore.
¡DAMAGE! Was the invincibility cheat
Some of my favorite quotes
“Watch the paintwork”
“You’re radiator’s blown”
“You’ve wrecked your car!”
“There’s flames all over”
Loved this game. Half the fun for me was blockading a track with wrecks and watching the ensuing carnage as the AI tried to do laps, since the AI was about as sharp as the Tesla autopilot and would hit the obstruction at full speed.
Remember the og on Sega Saturn more really fun game at the time.
I ‘member. ‘Member Goonies?
I used to put the PC version of this in my CD player and listen to the soundtrack
I loved DD1 and DD2. DD2 had a fantastic soundtrack too!
yep i still have my copy with jet moto
DD raw was pretty good to.
YOUR RADIATORS ON FIRE!
AWESOME! You wrecked your car!
He’s waaaaayyyy out in front.
Yes, yes I do. Good times
You’ve blown the radiator!!
There was a second one?! No better feeling in a game than a death from above.
I have destruction derby raw on PS1 still hahahaha
remember driving backwards more than forwards?
EDIT:
got is with a matrox mystique, my first ever 3d accerated experience. blew my mind
Take it easy! You’ve blown your radiator!
I actually remember some NASCAR game for the PS1/PS2 that had vehicle collision damage and you could turn your vehicle around on the track and just drive right into all the other cars and they’d go FLYING.
Used to rent a PS1 from Hollywood video and this. So much fun.
This game was and is so funstrating. Even as an adult.
Childhood for me.
Was this the one with that insane bowl arena where everyone crashed head on with eachother at the start and flew 200ft up into the air? My god that was fun.
2nd track in the yellow car… Am I remembering this right?
It was a solid driving game.
I loved the level with the small gap in it. I’d cram myself in sideways and let the pile up begin.
