I used to play on a pc game which i downloaded. I didn't buy it. I played it years and years ago so it's not a new game and it wasn't very good quality.

It was a car racing game. You could choose your vehicle which ranged from yellow buses to mini's to landrover type things to ferrari's... You could also choose a range of different settings to race in... Snowy mountains... fields... dirty roads... It was kinda cartoony... more cartoony than games like "Colin Mcrae Rally" but not as cartoony as games like "Crash bandicoot".

If anyone could help me out with the name of it, it would be greatly appreciated.

Umm... Well you could drive through snowy mountains, or a beach resort, or the countryside, or a muddy race track...

Me and my sister usually played against eachother. You could also have the computer racing the other cars against you too.

I remember you could give your car a fast boost every few minutes, where you would go faster for a few seconds.

In the muddy place you went over little wooden bridges etc.

In the beach resort there were a lot of corners to swerve around.

In one resort you went from the top of a tower thing in circles all the way down to the bottom... like a multi story carpark. In this resort, there was water either side of the road.

I seem to think the name of the game was just one short word.... (For example : Zoom or Crash.) But it wasn't either of them, and i could be totally wrong.

Umm... i can't think of anything else...

Unfortunately, you could be speaking of any number of games. The level selection has been a fairly common feature among the genre so to the the vehicles. Your description is particularly vague, if you can think of anything else it would be very useful.

Nope it wasn't BurnOut. It was more cartoony than that.

It might be Need For Speed, or Sega Rally Championships.

I believe the game you are looking is Ignition. It was developed by Unique Development Studio and publish by Virgin Studios in 1997.

hi all,I can't remember the name of one game.i played it long time ago on pc 486.it's about 3 guys(like the vikings) going in action and u could change between them as they run one behind one(like the animaniacs- sega game).Each of one had a weapon,i remember that one had a baseball bat and hat.at the end of one level when u had to kill the boss u were running around him(like hercules sliceing heads on one level).as i recall that level was at the junk yard.i hope that this is enough informations for someone to recognize the game.thx
