[FlameAdder]

[HansHellman]

[ZizzTheCREATOR]

That's one filthy disgusting breakfast table.

[neptronix]

I love how every song is a slightly modified version of the same song, with a different tempo.

Okay, hold down arpeggiator key on two keyboards.. nice.. now switch keys.. okay, now switch arpeggiator settings.. okay... allright, that's a rap guys, nice soundtrack!

[JusticeInACan]

@neptronix

At least it's good.

[gryzorr]

I just love music from Codemasters games. The soundtracks have unique style.

[LAtexStretch]

Agreed

The Dizzy Adventures are amazing.

One of the most intreaguing games Ive ever played as a child.

[neptronix]

Yeah, you can tell they put their hours in @ the C64 demo scene :p

[druid445]

i didnt like the breakfast table level lmao used to annoy me but the only thig i found fustrating was the whole adapting to a slow car then moving to a super fast one on the next level lol

[Quez256]

holy crap, never thought I'd see this again

[Camwi]

Funny how if a game based on Micro Machines were to be made today, it would most likely just be some crappy shovelware. But back then, developers actually gave thought to even licensed titles.

[MarveIed]

I remember being annoyed by the handling of the different cars with this game.

[peoswriter1]

This game was a blast in two-player. My brother and I could go for hours.

[oshyria]

I remember this game

[drawos1]

one of my all time favs!

[worldrummer]

camerica games had such easily identifiable music. as soon as i heard this one i knew. quattro sports is all just like this.

[95stangdude]

LOL, I just remembered I used to have micromachines, do they still exist? Anyway, thanks for bringing back such beautiful memories.

[HansHellman]

Oh man, back in the day...

This makes me want to buy an NES just for this game.

Thanks for the flash back :)

[dancingmind]

that's funny since it was not licensed by nintendo for use on the NES. Looks like it should have been huh? :)

[HansHellman]

How so? The song was on the game, and the game was on the NES. How was it not licensed?

[dancingmind]

back in the day, nintendo controlled the amount of games a developer could release to its console to 5 a year. It was debatedly because they didnt want to repeat the business crash like what happened to Atari years before. Other developers got pissed and thought they were just trying to give nintendo's games an edge. So many company's like Tengen (Atari) and this were made without nintendo license and tended to have the switch on the back that allowed it to bypass the NES pirated games sensor.

[LeoFan93]

yet the snes version is liscenced and its the same game!

[SMLByrd]

This is one of the best theme songs ever. Thanks!
