It's a double dose of nostalgia, this: GTI Club + is a retooling of the 1996 Konami arcade cab, and doesn't shy away from the electric blues, burbling jazz-funk and reedy voiceover exclamations that will send you straight back to somewhere sticky-carpeted on the seafront. But GTI Club was hardly aggressively contemporary back in its day. The racer had a selection of classic hot hatches scrambling around the back streets of a breezy Cote d'Azur resort, in a throwback to The Italian Job and the 1960s heyday of the Monte Carlo rally.
When a game released exclusively digitally disappears from distribution, it becomes impossible to play it legally. Actually, quite a few gems have disappeared in this manner, with the legendary P.T. being just the beginning of the story.

GTI Club Plus is good if you're a nostalgic fan of the original arcade machine. Newcomers, on the other hand, will find that the maps, modes, and features lack the depth of modern racing games. However, if you want to try a racer that does things a bit differently, GTI Club Plus is definitely worth taking a look at.
