The game does however have quite a decent sense of speed and the inclusion of some killer bumps in the road can send you flying with ten metres worth of air. It’s not uncommon to meticulously overtake ten cars only to hit one and get shafted by all ten again. They’re annoying because if you manage to hit one, they wipe off half your speed and every car you passed previously smashes into you again, slowing you down even more, thus continuing the cycle of punishment. They’re stupid in the sense that they randomly skitter across the road oblivious to your very existence (must have based it on elderly Volvo drivers). The AI in this game can be best described as stupid and annoying. Let’s do the math 6 challenges x 95 seconds x 4 crazy cars= 38 minutes of your life wasted (maybe 45 minutes if you include load times). The basic premise of the game is to race through 6 “challenges”, beat the 95 second time limit, unlock a “crazier” car (4 in total) and finish the game. So let the healing begin…Ĭrazy cars is a racing game that was knocked out by three guys (two of them related) and although it was semi-acceptable for it’s time, it is pretty damn ordinary today. Well, as part of the 12-step Nostalgia recovery program, I have to confront and re-evaluate my gaming past. I played it again and again and, in my delusional little brain, I thought it was the equivalent of Gran Turismo 4. You see, Crazy Cars was THE first ever Amiga game that I played, and loved, as an excited gamer youngling.

Nostalgia is an evil virus that has continued unchecked throughout the centuries and it is with great shame that I stand up among you, in this digital circle of faces, and say “Hi, my name is Bob and I am a Nostalgiholic”. The disease tricks the victim into retrospectively viewing a particular thing as being absolutely awesome – when, realistically, it’s absolutely…crap. The main symptom of this debilitating disease is the deterioration of the logical side of the victim’s brain, thereby instilling a sense of overwhelming connection to a place, person or a videogame. In the late 1670’s a brilliant medical student diagnosed a dangerous medical condition called “Nostalgia”.
