Interstate '76 - any fans? Anything modern close to this?
« on: June 21, 2012, 06:38:55 pm »

Man, they really need to remake this game. I would settle for the same cars and the same characters. It was a fantastic time, back in the day, although I can't stomach the graphics now.

Did anyone like it?

One of my favorite 'fun' things to do was call Taurus for a poem immediately after he requested radio silence.

there was a mod for BF1942 called Interstate '82, it was quite amazing back when it first came out, particularly its incredibly difficult race maps... alas i have not heard anything new regarding games like this in years.

There is actually a Battlefield 2 mod called Interstate Nitro, check it out. I think they're still updating. There's also the actual sequel, Interstate '82, which is mediocre but definitely fulfills the basic requirements, poetry and all (biggest complaint is that cars now just have health bars and no area damage).

Well Interstate is kinda similar to carmageddon so that's one thing to look into.

Twisted metal is also similar (armed cars).

Hard Truck: Apocalypse (some say it's terrible but i disagree) Heavily armed trucks armed with everything from shotguns and machineguns to plasma cannons and missiles.

Damn, This was one of the 1st games i bought after getting my Orchid Righteous 3d 2 12MB. 

Spent hours playing the skirmish/free roam maps and remember the story being cool too.

Off t find the intro music...
