x 2 zillion! And as long as they leave it at humans and not zombies, that ruined the game!

I was never a fan of Carmageddon (I know, I know. Shame on me), I was more of a Twisted Metal man myself. But I'd be more than happy to see a Carmageddon game released with today's tech. Could be great fun

Nody

Yes please; I still remember fondly the flip kills I did with great pleasure...

LOVED Carmageddon 2.

Duggy747

Carmageddon 1 was hilarious, that granny who'd shout out: "I was in da' waaaar!" would crack me up everytime. That game came out during that period of controversial games like Duke3D, Blood, GTA1, etc, and was always a joy to play.

Carmageddon 2 was ok but the novelty had sort of worn off and wasn't as fun the 1st one

Carmageddon TDR................well, the less said about that.......

Hmm, I do have all 3 of them. Should give the 1st 2 a whirl again.

I loved second one, was great crack. Car physics and damage model is way better then alot of brand new modern games. It was really damn fun.

I remember the amount of cars that game had... And they all felt sooo different. Is there any hd mod for car2? Would love to give it a go again, but I guess it will be horrible on very low ress

Reregistered They probably never renewed it after the last game.

Happy ****ing days!!!!

Best. Games. Ever.

KilOit

So many wasted hours on car 2, definitely time for a remake

Genghiz Cohen

Land on top of other car.
Mash Opponent repulsificator key.

Victory!

Wooden Jesus

Completely forgot about this game.
Want to go play it now

Naikon

holy HOLY s/hit. I remember losing days of my life to the original DOS version when it came out. The memories.

Make sure you have a few spare days handy. This game should come with an addiction disclaimer. You have been warned. GTA has little on this one. Avoid TDR 2000 like the plague though. That one sucked.

Gunmonkey

So what then...its just gonna be Carmaggedon with the physics and graphics of modern Burnout or Need for Speed games.....

:eek:

....I'll be in my bunk.

Kur4mA

Oh dear. If this is true and done right, it will be beyond epicness.

Sarky

If not for Carmageddon I probably wouldn't like metal. True story.

Another game would be nice. Oh, the good times smashing into opponents and shooting pedestrians with the electro-bastard ray...

Wooden Jesus

Where they pedestrians or zombies? Can't really remember.
All i can remember is trying to launch off a jump and land on as many as possible

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

i think it depended on what part of the world you were in whether or not they were pedestrians or zombies
i think the only difference was the colour of the blood on the ground

Creature

I loved the first two games played the **** out of them. It was all about the granite car powerup for me, slamming into other cars at high speed and watching as they got blasted into near Earth orbit...great stuff. If there is another one I hope it's as free roaming as previous. I mean I couldn't give a toss about the actual race aspect.

Sarky

There was a race?

Creature

Yeah so they say. Might just be folklore though. I was too busy to notice, what with the killing and all.

JD1763

Still have my original disc in the wardrobe. Hours of fun, my dad even bought a force feedback steering wheel at the time to play it. I hope to god they do it justice, still remember the airport level and driving across the glass roof the terminal - cant remember if it shattered or not, think it did. And the bloody giant yellow dumper truck that took ages to destroy. Full tilt at the thing and all you'd do is smash up your own car not even a scratch on it.

Dillonb3

Game brings back memories. I'll always remember running down the flagman when the race starts

savagecabbages

better have the electro bastard ray! zap

that would be epic.... was only thinking about this the other day!

Potential-Monke

10am on Wednesday, must make a note to see what it's going to be...

Tallon

I actually cannot wait... Canceled a meeting in work and all

GhostInTheRuins

So many hours did I put into this game, I can still hear the splats

I think I used to have to turn off the player avatars because I didn't want my mam to hear Max cursing (Surprisingly she had no problem with me murdering pedestrians). I never played the second game, I don't think my computer at the time was able to play it, but I still have the first game lying around somewhere. I think I tried unsuccessfully to get it to work a few years ago, anyone know if it's possible?

Actually, it's probably for the best that I can't get it to work because I can't imagine it holding up too well these days!

blaze1

yeah tried carma 1 & 2 last night both with no luck.. raging will just have to wait and see what tommorow brings!
