Classic Game Room HD - TEST DRIVE II: THE DUEL for Genesis

Classic Game Room HD reviews TEST DRIVE II THE DUEL for Sega Genesis from Acclaim. This driving game was originally released for the PC in 1989 and found its way to the Sega Genesis (Sega Megadrive) in 1992. It can also be played on Tandy! It was a remarkable game at the time and allowed players to drive a Ferrari F40 or a Porsche 959 against each other in a duel! The Sega Genesis version of the game added in a Lamborghini Diablo. This CGRHD review of Test Drive 2 The Duel has gameplay footage from Test Drive II The Duel recorded from Sega Mega Drive. Also features the original 5 1/4" floppy discs for the PC version including the Supercars pack for Test Drive II, the Muscle Cars pack for Test Drive 2 and the California track extender! Wow! You know that's hype and you want these floppy disks but you don't got em, CGR does! The Supercar car disk extender is the best and features a Lamborghini Countach, RUF Yellow Bird, Ferrari Testarossa, Lotus Esprit and Corvette ZR1. This is an awesome driving race car video game and CGRHD loves it from back in the day... although it's a little clunky today. The series continues today with Test Drive Unlimited published by Atari. This game is also called THE DUEL: TEST DRIVE 2 and playes on IBM PC 286 and PS/2.

@aklovl1980 I also had an Amiga 500. The best series of computer of all time... I'm sure if they had continued producing it Microsoft would be broken by now... So advanced for its time... Too bad the world didn't get it...

@teknifix haha, believe it or not, it was that phrase "Pass any low flying planes?" that helped me find Test Drive after more than 18 years on Google.

I had forgotten the game's name and every single thing but that phrase...and the other one about "being slower than his grandma" or something like that...man...I am still in dreamyland, as it was today I found it ^_^

One of the best racing games ever.......until test drive unlimited came out.

[teknifix]

Some of my favourite memories came from playing the original test drive on the C64 with an atari joystick. "Pass any low flying planes?" :)
