The adrenaline-packed thrill of 16-bit racing from the 90s is making a return in Top Racer Collection.
Review - You should be giving Top Racer Collection on Xbox a bit of a whirl, left to embrace the nostalgia.
This Top Racer Collection review will tell you why each of the included games does little to convince you to return to the past.
Should have stayed in the past, but sometimes I think I should have too! Lol, I'll pick this up anyways and I have no disillusions that they're great by today's standards. It's just like watching old corny low budget 80's movies, sometimes it's just fun to revisit the schlock. This is definitely only for the old farts, I can't see the younger generation caring, unless they just have a burning desire to learn about gaming history. Comparatively, I have been enjoying the Jurassic Park collection recently, and the games stand up terribly today.. but I love them. :)
**I'll wait until a sale at 9.99 or under though.
I love to revisit old games, but sometimes, they just don't hold up to your rose-tinted glasses view of when you played them in the past.
Nostalgia is a wonderful thing, but also very misleading!
The reviews of this collection haven't been particularly great, but I'm still going to buy this bc I like to support any legal efforts at bringing retro games to the current market. I enjoyed these Top Gear games as a kid, and even if they don't carry the same weight as they used to, I'm sure I'll find enjoyment in just revisiting the fondness of my gaming childhood.
