I remember playing this all the time when I was a kid. I remember it being one of the bleakest, grayest, most depressing looking games ever. But it was a lot of fun!
@sonicromer yeah the music and sound in this game was duff - the game was stuffed into a 8mb cartridge. The smallest n64 cart available. But the gameplay was excellent.
this game:one of the better racing games,for nintendo 64. :D thanks for the video(great job!!!)great time and great speed.the retro games(and consoles)much better,playing and graphics....¿ok?.grettings,from México City!!!!
bizarrely the rain wheather effect actually used more fogging than the fog wheather effect. racing in fog was far easier than the rain. btw the milk float is better than the porsche on jungle and desert.
No not really. The cars handle and perform quite realistically but these are no way the best graphics. I think perfect dark or battle for naboo has some of the best graphics for the N64.
@leavetome i know i used to think the graphics on this game were amazing...now we got gt5 and forza...im like wow wtf! but i miss the simpler times :( they remind me of my childhood...shit like this makes me wanna make a time machine and go to my good ole kid days...too bad time travel is impossible :/
I remember playing this Gem when I was a little kid with Vengaboys or Aqua playing in the background. Those guys were big back then so it makes sense to hear them while playing. :) Try muting the audio of this video and playing a Vengaboys or Aqua or any old skool techno song! Oh my god, the memories!
Jeez, I remember this game. It was fun but what a pain in the ass. It was one of the first racing games I played that you had to be consistent with the driving. You couldn't shit show it like with say Gran Turismo. If you fucked up, you were almost destined not to have enough track/laps left to catch number 1.
Bah, Reverse and Mirrored Jungle stage. You can change the difficulty ?? I doubt that, I have the game, it's super easy I get it on Manual and Bumper view doesn't even show you the gauge l0l0l just know all the shortcuts and turns..the Desert shortcut is AWESOME !!
There is no difficulty setting. The names of the seasons are Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter, Professional and Expert. Expert is simply the name of the sixth season.
Oh I forgot. I hate using bumper view that you can't see nothing. But this game actually used a Hood view, but while using the Hood view there's no gauge, just the mph :D classic game
Ahaha same. Man i actually never realised how sick this game was. And i got rid of my 64 and this game and banjo to goodwill :'( Man my 2 controllers were so fucking stiff. FUCK I WOULD PLAY THIS SHIT RIGHT NOW .
I thought this was one of the best racing games that I had ever played(although the game World Driver championship was pretty awsome too) . The desert was my favorite course because the music was awsome and I was really good at it.
yeah, Top Gear Rally! great game, still playing it from time to time.
I used to create my own championship by letting all 13 cars drive every track + mirrors in every weather (parted in spring, summer, fall, winter and night) and writing down the best of 3 laps of each single one. unfortunately it never finished, and now i don't know how to get all the tracks and cars again. :( would really love to finish it one of these days...
This was a classic for its time,... and surely enough,.. it has aged far better than most games,.. the thing with the N64 was that the graphics redefined what was possible with anti aliasing,... this feature enabled the machine to produce a much smoother, rounded look that many unfairly describe as blurry. For instance, look at early PS2 racing games,... look at how rought the textures were,.. and the PS2 was supposed to be the next generation of gaming.
I got the mine track today, by coming first in every race.. if anyone didn't know that. Really wicked track which Says something about our industrial waste and current primative outdated technology. I love the rusty cars by the polluted stream and how mad fighter jets fly over in that course with its many shortcuts and storys, such as the digging machines ripping up the earth. good music also.
I took the shortcuts becuase it is in the game. They wouldnt have put the shortcuts in there for you not to be able to take them. And in a race where you can barely see, slide all over the road and racing against opponets the dont know what the brake is, you need every bit of help you can get.
i remember playing this game for HOURS on end! This is such a classic already! TGR got me hooked on good car physics and suspension physics. Plus you can draw cocks and balls on your cars!
Believe it or not this is exactly how the game sounds on a regular TV with stereo or mono. I used a stereo video importer so both left and right channels should have been recorded into the video. But becuase I posted this video so long ago I cant remember if I really did get both channels or not.
I loved this game, and for some reason the simplistic music stuck in my head. In fact, while playing Sega Rally Revo, while watching a replay, the replay music from Top Gear Rally came to mind, which got me looking for videos of it on here.
I loved this game too. you could drift through all the corners lol. May fav cars were this one and the Fat AWD one. I always thought this car was a Porsche, do they have rally cars? I know they are make AWD.
4:50 i hated those damn walls
