Ależ w to się nagrałem:) setki godzin ,każdym samochodem. W tamtych czasach grafika wyrywała z kapci,te detale aut, różnorodność tras.Do dziś do niej wracam.Niby wszystko poszło do przodu ale pierwszy Colin wciąga nadal jak mało która gra Byłoby fajnie zagrać na dzisiejszym sprzęcie w ten klasyk
I remember the European version where I would choose "Novice" difficulty and choosing the Renault Mégane Maxi blue and yellow rally car, and playing a lot when I had my first rig inherited from my cousin. This game, to me, was the precursor to like motorsports in general, and which set my path to be an IT professional nowadays. Remember that had an nVidia TNT2 GPU and a Pentium 3 CPU, as I saw that such rig's hardware was compatible with Windows XP after I upgraded the operating system. Colin McRae and Carlos Sainz Sr. good friendship and legacy will never be forgotten!
Colin McRae Rally is an essential game in the history of racing games and a landmark in rally games. Both PS1 and PC version were very popular(at least in places where WRC is popular) and it's easy to see why. Fantastic presentation, excellent representation of driving in different tracks and weather conditions, gameplay that was instantly gripping but took a long time to get good at. By the time you were driving at night(a real challenge in this game) in the icy roads of Sweden you felt like a real pro. Sega Rally was fun, but this had so much more meat in it. Still an amazing game to play today and it should be on GOG.

Need for Speed: Underground 2
Need for Speed: Underground 2Need For Speed Underground 2 takes place in Bayview after the events of Need for Speed: Underground. The prologue begins with the player driving in a Nissan Skyline R34 in Olympic City (though the racing scenes are actually in Bayview), the setting of NFS:UG. He then receives a race challenge from a rather ominous personality who offers him a spot on his crew, but "won't take 'no' for an answer." The player races off — despite Samantha's warnings — only to be ambushed by a mysterious driver in a rage that totals his Skyline. The driver, who has a unique scythe tattoo, makes a call confirming the accident, and the flashback fades out.

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 redefined an already great game. Its addition of stellar new features (like Create-A-Park), and great game-play tweaks (the manual maneuver will be copied for years to come) made it the best installment in a killer series of games. Anyone who has ever skated the Philadelphia level will agree -- this game is a masterpiece of level design. Hell, it's a masterpiece all around. There isn't a bad park or dull moment, just pure gaming nirvana!

Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit 2
Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit 2The Need for Speed series returns, this time reverting back to the 'chase' arcade experience instead of a racing simulation. Top speed racing is the name of the game, where you must outchase not just the opposing drivers, but the cops. Choose from a selection of today's (and yesterday's) top sports cars, including the Ferrari F50, Porsche 911 and a range from the likes of Ford, Corvette, BMW, Lotus, Mercedes, Aston Martin, the McLaren F1 and a lot more. The competitive race mode allows you to take on other drivers and beat them to the line. A selection of tracks allows you to not only dodge incoming traffic, but perform deadly jumps and stunts to receive points. These points, combined with the points recieved from your finishing position, can unlock new cars and tracks. The Hot Pursuit mode combines all the major elements of the competitive mode with the chance to out run the cops. They will throw everything at you to try and stop you, including running you off the road, setting up road blocks and unleashing an attack helicopter equiped with missiles. Three busts by the cops ends the race.
