My brother realized early on that because cars in this game were so delicate, he could just use a city bus for the checkpoint races, take some shortcuts and position the bus across the course in just the right way so that the other drivers would just crash right into his bus at high speed. Once all of the computer drivers had wrecked their cars to the point of not working anymore, he would then finish the race at his own pace in the bus. Also, because the number of points you got depended on how fast your car was in comparison to the others, he got maximum points for doing this.

I remember playing this when I was like five and six and seven and being in awe at how cool the crashes were. Especially because I live in Chicago and my dad worked for 93.1 xrt the radio station, and knew Marty lenertz (the narrator) I got to meet him numerous times and remember talking about the game with him. I lost it when I was seven and I was heartbroken, and it gradually went into the back of my mind. Nine years later, I saw it on Wikipedia and it all came back. I bought another copy and was hooked all over again. Unfortunately I was too young to appreciate the multiplayer when it was still up and running, and now I think im gonna go and add some mods to it. It's great to hear that the game had such a following and still kind of does. One of the defining racing games leading into the new millennium. Btw I live your references and understanding of Chicago. I lived there for most of my life (in the suburbs now) and was able to relate to everything you said. The Da bears and the cubs works series joke had me laughing really hard

There isn't a specific genre basked on this but you could call these Y2K era games or fifth generation console-era games. There are people who make mods for games like these (including Midtown Madness) in the style of the game they are made for, rather than just a model conversion from a newer game.

My time as a kid with this game lasted for hours upon hours. My dad back then was incredibly strict, and the only way I was allowed to play was in the Cruise mode, obeying traffic laws and such, not being allowed to do the races figuring I'd grow up to be a reckless maniac. I felt so cheeky when he wasn't around and I could play however I wanted.

the menu screen music is pure nostalgia, that funky hip tune. brings me right back to end of the 90s. this was the first open world game I played and it felt so incredible back then. I miss those days! the screaming when you crash into the white bus 😆. MM2 had better textures and more "alive" feel, better game overall, but MM1 had better overall music. MM2 also had a ton of different commentators and funny quotes, and made you feel like you were playing the game in a room with tons of people watching

Man... my first game. I remember when my dad came back home one day with this on disk after he let me play the demo on his computer. This game was (and still is) so cool! In fact, to this day I still have it installed on my everyday PC :)

+Stan's Tech Videos I had the demo only too! It came with a magazine or something and I just loved the game. 15 years after that with internet I could finally play the full version, because it was never avaiable in stores here.

Ahhh...the memories...got this for Christmas '99, best Christmas ever ! Played this on a P200 MMX + 4MB Diamond Monster 3D. Ran pretty good on reduced details. In my opinion, this is still the best game of the series. Great review, Clint ! Never made it to the Panoz race car, but your video really gets me in the mood to try again :)

Taking the opportunity and the space to thank not only LGR for reviewing a game which made my childhood, but the creator of the Archipelago Mod too. Boy, that was a heck of a add-on to the main MM1 game, a beautiful and well worked new map, even for today's standards. I remember countless hours browsing and downloading stuff from MM2 Extreme.

This is one of those games that should be redone on a modern game engine and modern hardware in mind. If they ever get around to it, they should expand it to cover a bit of the 'burbs as well.

Wow. I almost forgot about this game. I used to have a steering wheel and pedal set-up for driving games and it made this game pretty fun. I would also put a small bench in front of my desk and my friend and I would drink beers smoke weed and try to drive around in traffic without crashing. That was a game in itself, lol. The bench made it feel like we were both in the car, lol. We would take turns driving. I still do that with other driving games, lol.

Rockstar San Diego is responsible for the RAGE engine, basically paving the way for all modern Rockstar games and with games like Red Dead Redemption under their belt, they are doing pretty well for themselves. Not to mention their involvement in GTA V.
