Looking for a name for a racing games i was playing as a kid

[sexyno0b]

hello. im new on the forums so bare with me

im looking for a name for this racing game i was playing as a kid.

you could drive a monster truck through courses as time attack but if you hit a pole you would lose time. you could drive as fast as possible while using turbo to get up at a ramp to see how far you could fly. you could also drive some kind of rally, you would also earn money from winning so you could buy new cars.

hope this discription of the game can help you help me find this game. i would really appriciate it!

EDIT: i believe its from the late 90's

Thunder Truck Rally?

[sexyno0b]

no sorry. not what i was looking for.

[Correction]

Do you remember the platform? Arcade? 16-bit? PC?

[sexyno0b]

it was for PC.

gaah don't know how to explain it :S

you could play monster truck, rally, circuit and some ramp jump.

[Milks]

monster truck madness?

[sexyno0b]

no. it was not only a monster truck game. you could play with other cars too

[Correction]

Dang, you make it hard to help you.

Last guess from me: Test Drive Off-Road

Check allgame for a list of games you can browse on your own. You'll probably have to switch between a lot of genres 'Misc. Racing, Rally Racing, etc' and sort by release date to narrow it down to the mid-late 90s. There were a TON of racing games then.

Sure it was PC? Sounded a little like Radical Psycho Machine Racing

[Kurokikaze]

Rock & Roll Racing??

[Intrinsic]

It sounds a bit like Monster Truck Rally.

[sexyno0b]

hmm its hard to explain.

1 of the modes was monster truck. another mode stunt/longjump with a car. another jsut normal race. another curcuit and a rally mode. dunno if this helps else i don't know how to explain it

and yes im 100% sure its for PC have only played PC games

Hell since were on the subject... I've been trying to remember the name of a game myself...

Platform: PS1
Genre: Futureistic, post war torn world

One of the biggest things I remember from the game was having several different types of guns, the one I remember the most was a mindcontrol weapon that could be used on anyone in the game, make a personal army of pixelated citizens and soldiers. There were missions to infiltrate fenced in areas... It wasnt a FPS but like an airel view of the character and surroundings

Besides getting a disc and/or ISO of the PSX version, and then using an emulator on your PC, there's also this option:

You'll be able to find used PC discs on Amazon, and surely elsewhere, like eBay; as for other means of grabbing it, I'm sure you'll know what to do.
