    So I'm not sure how many of you guys actually played a game called Death Rally back in the day. It was from 3d Realms (i believe). I still have a working copy of this game from the late 90s. I still find myself playing the game at least once a year.

    However, I was wondering if anyone here knows other games exactly or somewhat like it.... topdown racing view (not original GTA - another one of my favorites by the way). Man, I wish they remake this game using today's graphics and physics tech with unlimited dlc..lol, I would so buy it.

    There's nothing else quite like it. It's a unique game and pretty fun in its own right. Coincidentally, the developers recently ported it to Windows and have released it for free download. Now everyone can know what you're talking about! Link

    Thanks bchreng...I didn't know about the windows version. I guess, good bye DosBox.

    I just tried the windows version, its so nice to get all the sound effects. I had to give up sound before in DosBox because I couldn't figure out how to get it working. Thanks so much.

    Harley, thats another one of my favorites (in its own sort of genre), but its still not death rally..lol.
