Top Gear Overdrive (N64)

[@nukfauxsho]

I used to play the game to only listen to the music

[@DTM-Books]

Ah, the glorious days when racing videogames were FUN, not boring and miserable like driving through highway traffic. And what a showcase for Nintendo 64's power: no popup, smooth textures, highly impressive.

[@ReflexPancake]

Too bad the very good graphics makes it hard for emulators to emulate...You basically have to be on PC and not on a hacked Wii or Mobile Phone to play this.

[@kittbluevenom2384]

@@ReflexPancake I got it nearly perfect on Mupen64 on Android. Very minimal graphical glitches.

[@tropixx_xlr1549]

Too bad arcade racing games are not looked at with such fondness these days anymore, I don't know if people think they've gone out of style, which is most likely the reason, I don't know, but they never go out of style to me, they exist for a reason, for lighthearted fun. but honestly we need more arcade race games with the same vehicle handling as this one.

[@deadchannelagain7204]

if they only made games like this today

[@yuGmooDehT]

The Mammalizer I agree 100%

[@Outmaced121]

This title screen got me the reason why I love Vipers

[@donteandamy]

One of my favorite racing games ever. Soundtrack, hot dog and n64 car make put it over the top!

[@davidhaxell4161]

Looking back this game was well ahead of its time to have music that featured band instruments and vocals. not many others I can remember that did except Road Rash.

[@mstirlz]

170 MPH round a hairpin. I miss this game!!!

[@supremegod8410]

Same.

[@yuGmooDehT]

I just got done beating it again 20mins ago :D!

[@spblablabla]

love this song ninety s the best decade for the game with nintendo best sound track saluti from italy

[@rickrussell498]

Has to be the best sound tracks to any racing game

[@Wesley_C]

Oh yeh, the 911, Eclipse, F40 and F1's are my favorite sports cars in this game, awesome game.

[@linux06189]

still one of my all time favorite games... i want to play it so baddddd

[@TheCodedtestament]

I think the game was mostly graphically focused on instead of playability. As you can see, the game has stunningly solid frame rates and wonderfully designed graphics and other visual features, however it's lacking deeply in design and playability. It's a transcendent above other racers and it clearly is N64's most beautiful racer for it's time.

[@karlicia_lakatalina4645]

Yo swear to god this takes me back to when I was 9 dude wow

[@diegomo1413]

Ok, my brother and i weren’t just garbage at the game as kids, the traction really was non existent 😂

[@yuGmooDehT]

Basically lmao

[@Slymind]

This, Top Gear Rally and Star Wars Racer gave me a LOT of fun back in the day, and i'm not even a big fan of racing games.

[@linux06189]

grindstone!

[@ZA-7]

The Nintendo power and the F40 are my favorite cars on this awesome game!

[@a.p.980]

I was probably like 6 at the time and I wanted a super Nintendo because that's what all my buddies had at the time. My dad takes me to Sears and gets me an N64 with a bunch of games, top gear included and it was the best game out of the bunch. This game got me into the racing genre and I've never looked back.

[@metalboo8491]

my kind of racing game. fast, no driving aids, no recommended gear "thing" just straight up racing. in places where Ferrari's aren't supposed to go but are there anyway because that's what made these games memorable.

[@yuGmooDehT]

Yeah, that's why I can still go back to this game even now and have a blast, one of my fav racing games of all time.

[@RETROTITANPLAYS]

One of the first N64 games I ever owned, I still do actually, it's plugged in right now ;)

[@TylerMcNamer]

I was never good at this game. Need to go back and give it another go. This was the game that introduced me to the F40.

[@ANTHRAX_stomp442]

Amazing soundtrack list

[@leonardokula5742]

There was absolutely no way to play this game with the top cars without bumping everywheret, but it was kind of a "dance" that you had to memorize... this game is awesome!

[@supremegod8410]

I loved the music mir.

[@karlicia_lakatalina4645]

I used to sing the songs lol I remember all the words my mom used to be like wtf I’m Puerto Rican so it was odd lol

[@skinoioioiaus1728]

Useto love this game and the song

[@cedrio1027]

best soundtrack

[@yuGmooDehT]

This is definitely one of my favorite soundtracks of any game

[@linux06189]

anyone remember the space map? haha

[@yuGmooDehT]

one of the ones you get near the end of the game..

[@luiszepeda68]

[@anagnorisis1522]

WHAT!!! NO WAY!! Hahaha

[@hylianwolf8377]

Funny and exciting as hell and what a fucking great music

[@MrSinsglory]

loved this game

[@racykh7261]

nostalgia xP

[@80sMetalNeverDied]

Id have given this video a thumbs up if it wasn't for the ':3' in the description.

[@jlewwis1995]

Hm . Are the songs from this game "real" songs, or were they recorded by the development team? I know some N64 racers used actual artists music, like how NASCAR 99 used Surfin' With the Alien by Joe Satriani, among other songs, but it definitely wasn't as common of an occurrence as it is now

[@LaKatarina]

this was my GAME~!!!!!

[@yuGmooDehT]

I still play this all the time ^.^

[@LaKatarina]

I wanaaa plaaayyyyy

[@Galaviste]

This game kicked so much ass and it has a stellar soundtrack to boot. Just upset I lost my copy of the game years ago. D:

[@zarkozec2340]

jogo loko do caramba com trilha sonora do Alice in Chains cover.

Quero comprar esse jogo em fita n64

[@CynicalGamingBlogTerry309]

i thourght you were replying to someone else sorry

[@vittosphonecollection57289]

Also it's werid to call this "Top Gear". I think about SNES, Genesis and Amiga when I hear the name "Top Gear", not a 3d game like NFS

[@yuGmooDehT]

Okay? Things advance onward each console generation ofc it's not gonna be a 2d game anymore. 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@vittosphonecollection57289]

@@yuGmooDehT I know but I always think about the older 2d game when I hear that name

[@mauriciomascarenhas8458]

O pior top gear já feito

[@OnLyFuN1306]

What a downgrade from the SNES games

[@yuGmooDehT]
