I always thought this game had been nothing but a fever dream I had when I was a kid or something. After several attempts at crappily describing the game to google I finally found it lol. Amazing.

Never beat this one as a kid I had no idea wtf i was doing

this was that rare hidden gem game you'd always try and rent from blackbuster but it was never fucking there lmao

Time to get movin......time......time......Time to get movin. Love this game, I still have my copy. From the golden age of gaming.

You’re just trying to impress me.

This was the game for my childhood that I could never remember the name but I still had so many memories of it!!!

I loved the metallic effect and lighting on the dump truck, 24 years ago gosh time flies

_"You're just trying to impress me."_ God, my friends and I cringed every time. It was just embarrassing.

one of my favourite Blockbuster rentals from back in the day. It was a damn good weekend with this!

I played the crap out of this as a kid on a blockbuster rental, and didn't know about the backlashes ability to spin around so I always had to use terrain to get it to spin out and hit things with the back, it added an obnoxious amount of challenge to the game, I literally would have recurring nightmares about it.

This was part of my childhood N64 gaming experience. I feel kind of sad how underrated this game is. Guess it didn't get all the love it deserved.

Ah one of the classics. Simple premise, fun destruction, silly plot, great soundtrack and the chance to go back and 100%. It just doesn't get much better then this.

It was always funny to me how much destruction you cause, because a truck carrying nukes can’t turn left , right, or brake. 😂

literally one of the best games of all time. Fuck sales numbers, fuck ratings, this was a truly unique game.

Even though I was born in 2006, I still had so much fun with the n64. This will forever be my favorite console to exist

"Blast Corps was my first project, though I suppose it wouldn't be considered as a 'big project' these days. During the development of Blast Corps there were never more than seven people working on the game at the same time. Most of the time it was just this core group of four of us, who were mainly graduates. That sort of thing just doesn't happen any more. The concept for the game was something that Chris Stamper (co-founder of Rare) had been trying to get going for years. His famous quote was, 'If you knock down buildings, it will be fun.' Obviously, the challenge for us, always, was finding a reason to knock down buildings. So we came up with what we referred to as a 'Constantly Moving Object.' It helped to channel the gameplay and was used to set a time limit. Our lead artist at the time, Ricky Berwick, was just fantastic. He came up with some really cool ideas for vehicles and we basically retrofitted them into the play dynamic afterwards. My favourite vehicle would have to be Backlash. Its mechanic was borrowed from Mario Kart 64's power slide; it was heavily criticised and I remember defending it for many hours. It was really hard to pull off a successful slide-smash. Personally I found the challenge immensely satisfying." -- Martin Wakeley, lead designer (Blast Corps - N64 - Rare)

Even though it hasn't aged well at all, I still have many, many fond memories of this game.

Watching nostalgically in 2021... I love that game!

Rare was the best. No one else (aside from Nintendo themselves) could come close.

One of the best games of the N64. Not sure why it's never been re-released or remade.

I'm so glad to find so many people like me here. Hope finding this filled ur hearts with joy like it did me. Blessing to y'all my friends!

I loved this game as a kid, such a cool original concept and it had some pretty cool explosion effects for the time.

Far out this game brings back sooooo many memories! I miss being young

This is such a good idea for a KZfaq channel I'm so glad that I found this this is awesome Like it's kind of difficult to describe how perfect it is that I found this channel and it's just The title of the channel is self-explanatory and I love it

Thank you for an extremely enjoyable video, with tons of nostalgia :)

Man those moon levels and music were so much fun!

Kiddo is enjoying this tremendously, as am I. We've been watching this over the past few weeks now and we love it! Thanks for the upload!

This game is a gem! First game I bought for my 64 along with Mario Kart 64 and Killer Instinct gold

I didn't know it was pronounced "Cores" until I was in my 30's! ...Anyway, this, Goldeneye and Pilotwings were some of my fav timewasters on N64 with housemates, whilst smashing through Software Engineering lectures (hungover) at Uni in the 90's, waiting for Ocarina of Time to be released. Good times :)

This game is legendary. Those who know, have spent many hours with many friends growing up, having a... Blast ;)

I remember going to dinner with my friend and his parents and we had the nintendo power reviewing this when it came out. We kept saying"Blast Corpse" mispronouncing the title and the parents at first were like no you guys can't go get that game, LOL.

One of my favorites of all time the nostalgia is killing me here this video game makes me feel old

"Your just trying to impress me" You know it! -_^

I remember renting this game multiple times as a kid.

I remember how much I loved when the JBomb showed up as a vehicle and how much they loved to make you use the Backlash 😂. But it was very rewarding when you finally mastered Backlash!

So many memories renting this in my high school days. Would love if it came back

the most stressfull game of my childhood

Biggest mistake in My life... not getting payed to demolish entire cities.

Can’t believe people saying this game was bad. It was awesome! So much fun! Challenging!

I remember knowing how good these graphics were. N64 was good at pulling off metallic.

Childhood game right here ! Loved this ❤ playing with the brothers. Memories to last a life time

The nostalgia man ☯️ I thought it was a fever dream I had as a kid trying to beat this game XD good times 🕉️

ahh this takes me back, and reminds me of how long it took me to master backlash....seriously that was like pulling teeth

Man, this game reminds me of a random day in 2004 in Colorado. Surely nothing bad happened...

i like the music

I have been trying to remember this game for fucking years. My mind had me convinced it was a transformers game or some shit for either ps1/n64 and only just now did I get lucky by finding a site with underrated n64 games. I recognized it instantly. Amazing.

Jesus. This game. I can't believe I still have my copy. I should pull out the old N64 and do a nostalgia.

Beautiful youth played since childhood Nintendo 64 always had the best video games without a doubt blast corps the best I have played

Good to see i wasnt the only one who absolutely hated the dump trucks main "attack' and just front bumped my way to victory

Such a cool, fun, original game. Absolutely loved it as a kid

I have just bought a N64 to relive these games

Cant believe i forgot about this game. Loved it back then

I had no idea what i was doing on this game as a kid but it was so much fun lol

Beat this game after 3 years of trying ahhh the good times

I do remember seeing Paul McKenna play this game in Series 6 Episode 15 of GamesMaster.

i never had any idea what to do in this game but it was still the coolest thing ever

bought this back then .. wanted to play it so much.. even if i didnt had a n64 on my own at this time.. :D

Imagine how confusing this game was. I got it with a save game almost complete so one moment you're a giant robot destroying buildings and the next you're a lone race car with background country music. I mean now it seems... It was just America in a nutshell.

wow I always thought nobody played this game very happy to see this game is not only in my memory alone

You tell the gentleman you are blessed not lucky at 2:42:00. I am glad you didn't fail. God Bless.

Half this music could have been in Banjo Kazooie

Time to get moving!

Blast Corps for the Nintendo 64 was released in the United States on March 24, 1997, about 26 years ago, during 1996-97. This was Rare's 1st game for the system.

Such a funny game. I had not discovered it until now.

I finally found it! Ive been looking for this game from my childhood for at least year but had no clue what it was called. I knew id recognize the gameplay but all i could think to type in was mech warriror this or that. Never would have though to put in blast corps but i found it by putting in mech warrior N64. Mmaaaan, i need to get this game!!

0:00 best n64 logo intro. N64 could have had an official boot up screen.

I could never get the hang of that Backlash 😠

World of longplays is there a iggys reggin balsl for n64 longplay yet? If not please thanks your awesome

this was one of my favorite games on N64

Yay! This game is on the switch now!!!

gotta say, its brilliant the way they found a way to make the objective of the game destroying entire towns while still being the "good guys"

i would get so pissed as a kid when the girl would say “you’re just trying to impress me” 😭😭😭 i would yell at the screen like “no im not i dont care about you!!!!”

Thanks Whoisdisgit

This game was the equivalent of an ADHD fever dream. If I had to describe the fast paced insanity of the late 90s/early 2000s, this game would be it. Never knew wtf we were doing when playing it either.

Memories of a theme song time to keep moving OMG what a, memory when I was a kid

Second game I owned on the N64, behind Super Mario 64. I was so confused playing because I thought it was gonna be a mech-like action game lol. Half way through I grew to love it.

I used to love this game as a kid. Sure, it's very over the top. I mean you can literally unlock levels on the moon and pacman style levels. But it's just so unique and creative.

Used to love this game when I was a kid

Quickly destroy everything before the nuclear bomb destroys everything! .. wait ...

The very first game I got for N64, ahh the nostalgia!

I 100% completed this game as a kid,even though it was single player, it was fun playing this with friends

Die maps kamen mir als kind so dermaßen groß vor. wtf :D echt gutes spiel ! schade das die grafik nicht grade gut gealtert ist.

Just searched 'N64 Digger Destruction Game'. Nostalgia hit incoming lads 🥺👌

never heard of this game, but I'm going to add it to my n64 one day

This was the Nintendo 64 game of it's time.

Oh god oyster harbor. I could never beat this level when this game came out

I used to LOVE this game!

I could never get that car out of the frozen ice block underwater 🫤

I could never remember name of this game ,a today after 20 years it just came in to my head😄,i dont know how and why it just came

Nice video

All this game did to me as a child was panic LOL good times.

rock and roll

Are used to rent this game from Video Update when I was a kid and completely forgot it existed until idubz mentioned it in a video, oh the nostalgia lol, idk if I had any idea what I was doing tho

The most satisfying game ever made

I feel like I would still as an adult, be very confused at what the hell I'm supposed to do in this game.

I don’t think there is a deeper memory in my head then when I just found this game again. I can remember better being in the womb than this game

GREAT TIMES! When games were fun!

I was probably 4 when i played this, i literally haven't seen this game in 20+ years..

7:00 to this day i believe i heard this song in a movie, but dont know which movie. banger of game , so many hours trying to complete this game.

I had to google “n64 game where you control robot” I can’t believe I remember this, I’ve had dreams about it!!
