I've literally just bought another N64 off a lad at work for peanuts, sold my other one a few years ago
it's in the car now, can't wait to get home... Goldenye time!
very tempted by the remake on the Wii lets hope they keep it fairly original and don't **** it up

That brings back the memories. I also have an Amiga 1200 with this on the hard drive, used to play it against a mate using a null modem cable. I should have been at lectures 
Lotus Esprit 2 had a split screen, null modem mode so 4 people could avoid lectures at the same time. Beers and swearing were compulsory.

I remember the Lotus games, Stunt Car racer was indeed epic, used to make you move up and down whilst playing.
Indy 500 on the Amiga was pretty good, tood over from "Revs" as the game that actually had some indication of handling.
Supercars and Supercars 2 on the Amiga, kind of top down proto Gran Turismo with money changing hands and different cars to buy.
Nightmare Creatures on the PS1, now that was cool, really gothic and creepy, looked great at the time.
Test Drive, to be fair was tragic to play, it updated on a seemingly weekly basis on the screen but it did have the I am driving a Ferrari/Porsche/Vette Vibe, very cool, as was the music.
V rally was great, as were the early Gran Turismo games, remember scooting across from work to White City in Old Trafford with a mate to get it on release day, we got a free T shirt and I wore it for the next ten years, went in the rags for polishing a year or two back.

+1 for Road Rash awesome game..
Anyone rmmber Elite ( specifically on the BBC model B tape based )
Oh the years I spent on that one....
Made "elite" 4 times from scratch, all the newer coppies/remakes never seamed to hit the spot for me...
Although I do remember a fairly good atempt on the PC I think it was called Darkstar or something like that....
Feeling rather geeky now just thinking about it...

Anyway never understood why they never made a new version as it had such a huge following and think what it would have been like playing it online with massive mulitplayer trading and fighting. I had to use the automatic docking computer as I couldn't land for toffee

It was also the first game to have a proper decapitation move, a few years before Mortal Kombat was banned for that silly head ripping death move. I spent hours on that although IK+ played far better.
BTW Jacko, loved Supercars 2 and I see what you mean about Gran Turismo. Just goes to show that Gran Turismo 5 needs oil slicks and missiles though
