Clearly one of the Amigas greatest free roaming sandbox games was the inspiration for the low budget PS3 clone!!

I mean the graphics.

In the case of T-Racer several enemies and finalbosses and patterns are identical,the similarity I don't think that it doubts somebody.

Well, okay so the graphics are definitely similar...

A good little game though... is it PD or commercial? I've never been totally sure. (T-Racer, I mean.)

I like T-Racer because ProjectX is my favourite shoot'em up,even T-Racer in certain aspects is better than ProjectX.T-Racer is the second part nonofficial of ProjectX IMO.

T-Racer is commercial game

I vaguely remember two games with different titles and exactly the same levels , the only difference was the avatar we played with:
"Titus The Fox" and "The Adventures of Moktar"

The SNES game inspired byt the movie "universal Soldier" is the first Turrican with a different sprite. That's a *real* ripoff ^^

s2325 · 04 June 2008, 16:06

Yes, Universal Soldier is also on Gameboy, it's very good version, better than from SNES.
