Carmageddon was never an arcade game. It was a PC game, and it was awesome. It isn't a racing game, it's a demolition derby/vehicular manslaughter game with the option of treating it like a race if you really want to. I have never played the N64 port, but from what I have heard, everyone that has complained about it was playing it as a racing title, not the carnage-fest the PC original was. While I imagine the N64 port is actually terrible, I recommend that you try the PC game. The controls may still a bit wonky, but it is a lot of fun to play.

I remember seeing this game on a list done by a user I watch quite a bit. The list was The Top 20 Worst Games of All Time, obviously from the point of view of the list's creator. This game beat out Sonic 06, Parasite Eve 3 (essentially the "Metroid Other M" of the Parasite Eve series), Superman 64, Friday the 13th, and another game done by Stellar Stone (same people who made Big Rigs), and was placed in the single-digit section of the list. He also gives out ratings for games that he reviews. Carmageddon 64 got a Bullshit rating, but you make it sounds like it deserves a Rest In Piss (pretty much the rating that a game does NOT want to get).

Darklordjadow1 Yes but they can't change the game mode can they? Otherwise it's a different game. Just because it's a console port doesn't mean they have to change the system. You should be getting angry at the bad design, not the fact that the opponent AI can't win. If they could win then you wouldn't stand a chance of actually doing what you are supposed to be able to do in the game. Your reasoning is flawed sir.

Mazrim Taim Exactly! I'm mad that the design is so bad they had to rig it so the AI can't win. It's an example of how screwed up the game is; that rather than fix the shitty game they essentially programmed in a half dozen exploits to make the game something resembling playability

@mrbigmouth5028 жыл бұрын
It's unfortunate that the console Carmageddon games are so terrible, because the PC games are actually pretty good. Have you ever played the PC games? I think the biggest mistake they made with this version is making it so that hitting pedestrians (err, zombies but whatever) makes you take damage. That right there ruins one of the main elements of the game. You're supposed to be able to gleefully mow down hapless pedestrians and fill up your timer so that you can explore the map and battle with the other racers. Another thing they got wrong with this version are the physics; half the fun of Carma, I find comes from going off jumps, flying through the air, driving on rooftops, and other such crazy shenanigans. It may look like a racing game, but it's really supposed to be more of a violent physics sandbox.
@Darklordjadow18 жыл бұрын
+mrbigmouth502 I have never played any of the other Carmageddon games. On the list of problems this game has, taking damage from the zombies is really low on the list for me. The confusing maps, frustrating objectives, lack of time, and God-Awful controls are what ruin it for me. This version of Carmageddon is fundamentally poorly designed on every level.
@mrbigmouth5028 жыл бұрын
Admittedly, Carmageddon 2 on the PC has some frustrating missions, but the non-mission scenarios where you just have to destroy the other racers are really fun. And yeah, you don't start off with a lot of time at first, but you get a lot more once you start running pedestrians over, and you DON'T take damage from it so getting extra time isn't an ordeal. The maps can be quite sprawling and intricate, but there's a mini map that can help. As far as the controls go, Carmageddon games, at least the ones I've played, have always been kinda strange in that regard. Carma 2 controls a lot better than the first one though, I will say that.

LMAO!! This was probably your best review yet. I missed out on this shitfest, but it amazes me how many shit games were actually on the N64. I know back then, you could rent a game for five days and if you didn't like it, all you missed out on was $5, though you were kinda stuck with a shit game for 5 days. It boiled down to games that were shit back then didn't really steal money, but they made a huge impact. It seems like some of LJN's employees defected to Titus and created this crap and Superman 64. And AY MADON!! That story! The story on this game is the stupidest thing I have ever seen. It looks like someone made a last ditch effort to create some semblance of a story in a short amount of time. Like they had a Sunday afternoon to submit a story and a reason why you're running over stupid ass pedestrians on this game. By the way, I loved your rap. You should do that on more reviews. This game is really, really reminiscent of Superman 64.
@Darklordjadow19 жыл бұрын
Well I think that part of the N64's problem is that it's when games were jumping from 2-D to 3-D and a lot of games missed the mark. What can I say; the mood struck me. But yeah; it astounds me how similar this game is to Superman 64; it's even by the same publisher and came out 6 months afterward.
