Old skool racing games

LU8 · 08-12-2010, 11:58 AM

Back in the golden days of gaming most of the popular arcade games were racing games. It was a great way to dream before being old enough to actually drive a car. Which classic games from the pre Gran Turismo era did you like growing up? One vote for Pole Position.

still got most of those classic's before the fancy video games came out.

before the file share crack down I got a copy of mame and over 500 classic arcade games. [my first big PC job, first day they set me up with napster so I could download all I wanted. Those where the days.]

id have to say spyhunter but loved offroad, that 4 player supercross type trucks. But it came much later in it, when consoles were already out.
