This is already on GoG, the Carmageddon Max Pack is the base game bundled with the expansion. Not sure why this is still being listed as part of the Dream List.

Stress relief from my day job, driving taxi. Picking up, I mean off, people on the street in a safe and effective way. Getting them to a destination, usually not of their choice. The OTT modifiers, the completely unnecessary 'race'. Destroying your competition. Just doing what would be completely illegal things in a safe and satisfying way. The hardware reqs BITD weren't all that high so I could run this. The pixelly graphics were a feature not a bug. The powers that be were not happy about what was depicted, even in such an obviously unreal way. Cartoonish comes to mind, even if they weren't even that good. Hours spent in happy decompression on this Good Old Game.

A completely crazy game and probably not suitable for young kids, but it was included as a demo in a magazine, so I got the chance to plow through some pedestrians. I guess games should be fun right.

The campaign mode of Carmageddon was a fun thing, though some of the challenges I still think were unfair. Where this game shone brightly though was the multiplayer. The chaos was incredible and so, sooo much fun. Destruction Derby brought destructive cars, but in Carmageddon you could annihilate them.
Best in the series of car destrucion games. Variety of cars that you can drive is amazing. Sound track is amazing, cars feel pretty good to drive and maps are different enough to keep you interested.
Those games also need your vote!

While controlling photo-realistic cars, gamers can use offensive and defensive attacks as they battle for the lead and careen through real-world track locations ranging from L.A. and San Francisco to the streets of Hackney, UK and the treacherous roads of Barcelona, Spain.
