Story:Take the wheel as Max Damage as you plow scores of vehicles unlucky enough to be in your way in Carmageddon, an action racing game. Your soundtrack will be the sound of crunching metal, the splatter of motor oil on the windshield, and the screams of skidding tires. With a white-knuckled grip on the wheel, you'll have the choice of 23 crash mobiles (from a terrifying monster truck to a high octane Dragster) and 30+ levels of hellish fury and motorized terror.Show more

This is already on GoG, the Carmageddon Max Pack is the base game bundled with the expansion. Not sure why this is still being listed as part of the Dream List.

A completely crazy game and probably not suitable for young kids, but it was included as a demo in a magazine, so I got the chance to plow through some pedestrians. I guess games should be fun right.

The campaign mode of Carmageddon was a fun thing, though some of the challenges I still think were unfair. Where this game shone brightly though was the multiplayer. The chaos was incredible and so, sooo much fun. Destruction Derby brought destructive cars, but in Carmageddon you could annihilate them.

Stress relief from my day job, driving taxi. Picking up, I mean off, people on the street in a safe and effective way. Getting them to a destination, usually not of their choice. The OTT modifiers, the completely unnecessary 'race'. Destroying your competition. Just doing what would be completely illegal things in a safe and satisfying way. The hardware reqs BITD weren't all that high so I could run this. The pixelly graphics were a feature not a bug. The powers that be were not happy about what was depicted, even in such an obviously unreal way. Cartoonish comes to mind, even if they weren't even that good. Hours spent in happy decompression on this Good Old Game.

Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis: The Action Game
Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis: The Action GameBeing an action title, the game starts off where Indy is about to have an excuse to use his trusty whip: in Monte Carlo, after he recruited headstrong former student Sophie to his aid and determined the location of ancient discs needed to open the door to the lost city of Atlantis. Most action takes place in isometric view, although there are some variations along the way to keep up interest. There are even some adventure-game elements, such as Indy's inventory which you can fill with various objects to use (i.e. money to buy things). They are mostly easy though, and are there only to relieve the tension from knuckle-blistering action.
