I'd rant about how shitty, broken, and just plain half-assed unfinished this game is, but Armake21 does it so much better.



Seriously, what company releases a game like this to the public for 20 FUCKING DOLLARS!!! This is beyond lazy. This is flat out douchebaggery, to the highest degree. I think that the game would've gotten better reviews if the company just had a homeless man shit in the box, and then put it in stores. This game doesn't even look finished. In fact, I doubt it was. Probably just some almost-bankrupt company that wanted to push out another herpes-infested monkey turd before they finally bit the big one. Acclaim makes better games than this. Hell, at least Acclaim POLISHES their turds before releasing them! God, this game makes me want to kill someone. Bleating and Babbling

Heh, I guess I had a rant in me after all.

YOU'RE WINNER!

Yeah that game is pretty much universally hated by EVERYONE. And for good reason.

Acclaim ceased to exist in 2004, following a Chapter 7 bankruptcy.

In late 2005, former Activision executive Howard Marks bought the rights to the Acclaim name and logo for $100,000. Since then, he has used them for a new company, Acclaim Games, which makes free online MMORPGs. The games are financed via in-game advertising.

I know. The new Acclaim actually makes OK MMOs. The old Acclaim made shitass games, but no where near the fuckery of Big Rigs.

The company that did Big Rigs hired cheap russian programmers, hence the you're winner thing.

Games like this are good for LAN parties where you can load it up and have a group of friends stand behind you and watch in awe and horror.

In a sick, twisted way, so do I. This game is like the complete opposite of games like Super Mario 64.

Compairing Big Rigs OTR Racing to Mario 64 is like comparing Clarence Darrow to Regal Sin.

But Big Rigs kinda stole the whole "no collision detection" thing from Cosmic Race on PS1.
