[oneshotdead]

i.e., racing games (car, moto, futuristic, whatever).

MAME:

Thank you.

Edit: Sorry, guys. Any perspective is fine. But please, pre-PSX, none of this Ridge Racer etc.

[killergorilla]

Console: Micro Machines Series (especially the 4 player snes versions. The MD ones are 4 player too but I'm not sure if emus support j-cart yet?)

Amiga: Overdrive, Lotus Series, Super Cars Series, Buggy Boy, Jaguar XJ220, Skidmarks Series

MAME: OutRun!

[s2325]

Amiga: Lotus 2
Console: Virtua Racing 32X
MAME: Chase HQ

Console: Gran Turismo, V8 Super Cars, Colin McRae, WRC

Amiga: XTreme Racing! Play it over some linked Amigas and it rocks. So does Stunt Car Racer but that's 1st person perspective.

Shame... TOCA 2 on the PS1 is a smashing (ahem) game.

And okay, these are not retro at all, but Mashed and Outrun 2006 on the PS2 are as good as anything else mentioned here.

(Sorry, I'll get back on-topic now...)

As for the Amiga... I'd go for Roadkill, Lotus 3 and Lamborghini American Challenge.

[Retro-Nerd]

All Terrain Racing, Nitro, Turbo Trax (Arcane) are some nice top view racer for the Amiga.

Mega Drive: F1-Circus MD, Fun Car Rally, Formula One: Beyond the limit (Mega CD), Virtua Racing Deluxe (32X)

Mame: Chase HQ, Turbo Outrun

[DrF]

What about ReVolt, bit new that?
Turbo Trax, ATR and Super Cars for Amiga?

[Paul_s]

Crazy Cars III - aka Lamborghini American Challenge, Domarks - F1 (very very fast on turbo mode! : )

Mame - Probably Outrun for all out coolness.

Amiga: Vroom!

Nobody like Super Hang-On? Probably my fave.

Also, Lotus 2

- and Stunt Car racer can provide a lot of laughs.

and on the subject of Geoff Crammond, a lot of people loved F1GP.

[Graham Humphrey]

I like Super Hang-On. Considering it doesn't seem to be that popular we still had a lot of entries in the Games League for it

[s2325]

You can play Cruising USA/World/Exotica on Project64 emulator instead of MAME if you want full framerate, higher resolution & texture filtering.

[Muzkat]

Snes: Rock and Roll Racing, Top Gear II

Megadrive: Lotus, Skitchin, Road Rash

Amiga: Lotus 3, Crazy Cars 3, Formula 1 GP, Vroom, Overdrive, All Terrain Racing, Supercars 1 & 2, Skidmarks, Psyborg. And that one on A1200 with the weapons - I forgot its name.

Old PC: Death Rally, Screamer 2, Speed Rally, Q Rally, Death Track, Road Rash.

Mame/Neo Geo: Powerdrift, Overtop, Outrun, Chase HQ.

Guys if you like Super Hang-on a lot, you'll surely love Racing Hero (also from Sega). Its more 3D feel (not in a polygonal sense, the game's still sprite based) is really immersive and makes it a joy to play than Super Hang-on. You just gotta try it on MAME.

[Graham Humphrey]

Nice suggestion, thanks. Shame I can't see the pic though

[s2325]

Here is from Racing Hero:

I will try it at home.
