The game offers several different modes of play, including a career mode, where the primary, mission-based play mode allows the player takes part in one of four television shows, with missions being presented as "episodes." There are four different shows to choose from, each with a set of episodes that increase in difficulty. It's your city to cruise through or bruise through... check out your own SimCity 2000 city or one of the 50+ built-in cities, or take on opponents in an urban free-for-all while skidding, bootlegging and blasting away. Speed through a sprawling metropolis or tackle one of the Streets' rim-rattling missions. On the Streets of SimCity, you set the road rules.Show more

Fun missions for various campaigns. a great soundtracks on a selectable radio to jam out to as you play the missions. I will never forget the delivery missions in the truck.
My good friend Steven had this game on PC. I would play it at his house. It was a stupid game (like sim copter), but this one was car based, and it had a different vibe. It was preGTA3, so this was first. My family computer only had 120MHz, so it was not powerful enough to run it, but I always wanted to. Its the stupid kind of fun you can have when you and your best friend get together and a video game gives you a rocket launcher. Fun WILL be had.

The gameplay and style of this game was just great. Decking out cars with absurd weapons and taking to the streets (including custom cities from SimCity 2000) was just way fun. That and some crazy fun cheats, like changing the gravity, just made it really enjoyable. Would love to see it come back.

When I was a kid, my family got a bundle pack containing this game along with SimCopter, SimTower, SimSafari, and SimIsle. This game in particular was one of the first vehicular combat games I've played and I have plenty of fond memories of it.
I used to love this game when i was a kid hours of fun just messing with simcity urban renewal kit and driving blowing stuff up. DOing the missions and making cars fly pure choas! for 10 year old me!

Easily one of the most broken games I ever had when I was a kid, but when it DID work, it was actually a lot of fun. The soundtrack is awesome, and having different radio stations that you can choose to experience the different parts of the soundtrack was unheard of anywhere else in 1997. Are there better road rage type games? There sure are! They're already available on GOG, so let's get this also-ran here as well!
