Death Rally
http://www.remedygames.com/games/deathrallyDeath Rally is an awesome top down racing game that was made fro DOS but has been ported to Windows and has now been released for free to the public. Does anyone else here play it? If you like competetive racing with guns, mines and bumper spikes thrown in, you should give it a try!

Re: Death Rally
I'm stuck on the main menu, but the intro looked ok.

Re: Death Rally
I don't see how it's junk, keeping in mind that it was made for DOS. What's wrong with it?

Re: Death Rally
I loved this thing and played the demo more times than I can count when I was something like 8 years old.
Thanks a bunch for the find; I've been looking for this for a while. I hope it works...

Re: Death Rally
If someone beats the adversary on medium, can you please tell me how you did it? And it's a pleasure! I had great fun with this when it was a demo as well.

Re: Death Rally
This is rather enjoyable, my current vehicle it quite drifty, though. Reminds me of the original GTA.

Re: Death Rally
Yeah, I always upgrade tyres first 'cause thems cars do drift quite a bit. The deliverator with a fully upgraded engine and basic tyres acts like its on oil covered ice, and at 160km/h that's not such a good thing.

Re: Death Rally
Tires are by far the most important upgrade; armor is mostly useful as a long-term investment so that you don't have to spend as much $$ on repairs.
I beat the game in 56 (I think) races on medium. Basically, you trail him just outside of his mine-laying range until you get to the last lap, where you pop your saved-up turbo and overtake him on the last curve. I'm going to go for hard pretty soon. It's just as fun as it used to be, so far.

Re: Death Rally
My main strategy is to stay behind until they run out of ammo. Then I'll speed up and kill the guy in front. By this point I should be clear to speed through the race.
