A racing game for the
Sega 32X, basically a port of
Virtua Racing with the addition of two more tracks (as well as a secret
mirror mode) and two more cars (the
Stock Car and the
Experimental Racer). The game runs at a decent
framerate, has no serious issue with
pop-up, and includes pretty much everything from the
coinop, including the
music and
samples, the changeable
camera, and even a fully-featured
replay mode.
One drawback was the low resolution (or possibly some kind of primitive LOD system) made the other cars on the track look like white rectangles a lot of the time. But say what you like about the 32X, and it was a bad idea from the start, you can't deny that this game is cool. The controls are spot on and it's actually really challenging, especially the later tracks. The original coinop was one of my all-time favourites, so this conversion (done by the original coders at AM2, no less) made me very happy. Broke, but happy.
An interesting experiment, in those pre-Playstation days, was to compare the laughable Stunt Race FX on the SNES to VRDeluxe, and watch SNES owners' smiles suddenly collapse (although a price comparison would have had the opposite effect).
