Let’s NOT Play Rock n Roll Racing 01 – Kinda Like RC Pro-Am

It’s not bad for a racing game, I suppose.

  1. I like this game. It uses some of the BEST rock songs EVER!!

  2. @SutaSafaia Let’s see here. I remember hearing that Spy Hunter wanted the Bond theme. However, they couldn’t afford the rights.

    So, they went with Peter Gunn, instead. And, totally honest, I have no clue what Peter Gunn is, either. Must have been dirt cheap, though.

  3. Oh, man. I played this game about a bajillion years ago as a rental.

    It’s biggest deal was the rock rifts in rich Midi. An OK recreation of RC Pro-Am. But, not much else to bother remembering, here.

    I’m watching Part 2, BTW, where the comment about Micro Machines for N-64 is mentioned. If you thought that was good, Play the Micro Machines for the NES! Simply put, BEST NES DRIVING GAME, PERIOD. That game plays/looks so good, it just doesn’t seem possible to have existed on the old NES.

  4. I find it funny how many people recognize the third track as the Peter Gunn theme. When I heard it the only thing I thought was the Spy Hunter nes theme ^-^; Never even heard of Peter Gunn.

  5. Is it bad that I still remember you can hold down L and R, then scroll to the end of the roster to pick a secret character?

    Also remember the gun on the hovercraft sucked and kept the tank just for the missiles.

  6. Fun fact: Silicon and Synapse was the former name of Blizzard Entertainment

  7. Ironically that’s about the only racing game I played in the SNES era. I still suck at it!

  8. Love all of the classic songs turned 8-bit like Paranoid and Highway Star :D

  9. MAD MAD props for using Ozzy for the soundtrack!

  10. Yeah, what are you going to do next, comment on how the last game ripped off robocop and think this one is ripping off bad to the bone when it actually IS bad to the bone?

    I mean, that’s almost like if I didn’t read previous comments before replying!

    …uh oh. Oh man, this is embarrassing!
