/vr/ - Retro Games

Crash Team Racing for PSOne. The best racing game of all time IMO.

Toca World Touring Cars/Jarret & Labonte Stock Car Racing is one of my favourites.

>all cars can suffer damage, both visual and in performance - even some pieces of your car remain in the road during races
>good AI for a PS1 game, your rivals actually brake to not crash in your back and avoid you
>sunset/night/rain races
>great car controls
>yet simplistic, cockpit and hood views
>tracks from the whole world
>decent number of available vehicles for a PS1 game - it was the only racer I ever saw a Fiat Marea
>small playlist, but with catchy soundtracks (this is really subjective though)

This game is good as fuck, the only thing I can complain about it is the missing of Formula Ford from TOCA 2.

sounds neat

having a lot of fun with V-Rally 2 right now
(I know it's pleb shit, but I'm a rally scrub)

Was really surprised that Ignition runs very well on my old ass toaster back then, compared to any other 3D games of the time.

Thank you to whoever suggested Fatal Racing/Whiplash in the last thread - but how do you get it to run?? Dosbox shows only the intro splash screen before crashing.

Nvm found this: http://get-good.net/index.php?title=Fatal_Racing

Hope it's fun

>>2124639
Which Toca game? The first one? Are the others any good also?

>>2126150

This is the third one. The first two games are better on PC though, and unfortunately there isn't a PC version for World Touring Cars.

You ALWAYS post this set of webms in racing threads, anon. Man... you convinced me to download this game, I'm loving it.

>>2124639
you forgot
>tank cheat

the cheats in TOCA and F1 '97, another Codemasters game, were fun.

Which games, preferably in PS1 and PC, have analog acceleration support? I'm aware about Gran Turismo titles, Colin McRae and TOCA series. IIRC Sega Touring Cars PC version too.

micro machines 64 in 6-8 player padshare mode.
even in 4 player multiplayer it is great fun.

>>2126445
>PC
pretty much everything since the early 90's, both DOS and Windows

>>2124657
your webms are so tidy , can you run us through how you make them?>

>>2126582
you mean encoding to webm?

Megarace with a joystick on PC was godly. When I found out that actual racing is just going in circles and not doing flips and shooting each other I was crushed.

60fps is so nice. It's so much more important than muh HD graphix.

>>2126590
What game is this?

>>2128145
rally championship 2000

>>2126590
yeah, im assuming you just cap it with fraps

>no mention of Jet Moto series
The first one is one of the most challenging racing games I've played, but is so rewarding once you've mastered all the techniques.
>swooncing around corners at light speed with the grapple beam
2 and 3 were equally fun but the tracks and music in 1 were so memorable
>dem swamp levels

...where'd you find that reskin of the Civic?

>dat track editor in V-Rally 2
>making tracks so bendy and so crazy in elevation changes, you can actually see the underside of other parts of the track at several points

>>2129353
Fuck's sake: I should have known it was the Proton.

I loved some Top Gear Pocket.

Thanks for the list, I'll definitely try some other titles.

>>2124639
pretty fun on gba too

also, based nfsII

I remember there being a shit load of marketing around this game back in the day but I only ever played the demo.

Was it actually any good?

>>2135162
It is, but good luck getting it to run. Even the GOG version can be a pain on the ass.

>>2135289
Even without the online multiplayer? I remember that being the biggest part of all the marketing.

Dem modes.

>>2126445
I'm not sure, but I do believe gran turismo only supports analog braking/gas if you are playing with a steering wheel controller. Unlike the ps1 dualshock, ps1 dualshock doesnt have analog d-pad, buttons or shoulder buttons. Only the sticks are analog.

A fun game. Has the perfect balance of arcade but with a little realistic touch. It is not the braindead bullshit that doesnt even require you to brake that the series became. Has some fairly high challenge towards endgame. The sound effects are great, the graphics are good, altough there are a few frameskipping in the ps1 version, specially on multiplayer it is kinda annoying. It also features a weird techno soundtrack that was the rage in late 90s. Alongside nfs3, this is my favorite nfs, even with all the flaws.

>>2135162
POD works fine here on modern system with a glide wrapper, like nGlide.

>>2135793
Just get the PC version.

>>2135758

You can accelerate and brake with the analog sticks in both GT.

I only played lotus 3 on an old 486 pc, are there any others, which is the best version? Is there a follow up?

Dem futuristic tracks.

Pod Racer man

>>2139135
International Rally Championship has a championship mode just like in Lotus 3 (i.e. with the refueling), as well as the RECS system for generating tracks to race on
both games by Magnetic Fields

>>2139135
amiga version is probably the best
yo technically the guys behind top gear 1 are the same team who did lotus, so it's a sort of spiritual sequel of sorts

Been replaying GT1 for the last few days. To this day the feeling of grip and traction is unsurpassed in video games for me.

I do have a hefty dose of nostalgia for it but gameplay is still objectively tight as fuck. Music, menu art style, manufacturer tunes, everything is fucking GOAT tier.

Many hours spent playing this with my mates. Hard mode was using the steering wheel controller to play.

No need to apologize. V-Rally 2 was GOAT material. The track editor was so powerful almost all the single player tracks were made using it. Only some of the longer point to point stages were developer specifically (As the PS1 needed to stream in longer stages)

Dreamcast version removed the restrictions and was even more GOAT (Also 480P VGA support and 60FPS). Shame the online features they planned never made it with online track share
