I can't remember if it was Hard Drivin' or Race Drivin' I played on the PC. I THink one was the sequel of the other but they were very similar. The graphics were good for the time for 3D. Polygons could only do so much then. I thought the game was a fun diversion for a little while but you get tired of it pretty quick. The worst thing about it was the slow frame-rate, even on a high-end PC at the time. I never played the Genesis version so I'm not sure how it compares.
yeah, i should have mentioned the terrible frame rate. As bad as that was on PC (I can only imagine because i never played it) it was abysmal on Genesis and they had to have been aware of this but sent it to market anyway. Sometimes the terrible frame rate was the reason why you crashed.
