Have Yous Played... Moto Racer?

Hullo Moto

My first racing love wasn't Screamer, but Moto Racer. It was so long ago, I can barely remember the case it came in. Instead of a cardboard sleeve, I think it was 1 of those slim plastic cases that airtight with more of a snap than those chunky ones. What I do remember, though, is that I played the heck out of it.

Released in 1997, Moto Racer'south an arcade racer where yous zoom around locations on 2 wheels. Either you lot ride on a beefy male child built for roads, or yous skid through mud on a dirtbike that sounds similar a behemothic bee buzzing in a cavern. Equally a budding video game-liker, it was simple fun which jetted me off to roasting deserts, snowy slopes and towering cities with null expectations.

This was my favourite affair almost Moto Racer. Information technology'south singularly focused on letting you lot bonfire around nice locations on a wheel without all the faff that comes with realism. The controls are like shooting fish in a barrel to pick-up and you generously bounce off surfaces if yous time something incorrect. There's this sense that information technology wants y'all to have a good fourth dimension, no matter what.
