I had this game and completely forgot it. I remember always building my own courses and if you made it too complex the game would always crash. Thanks for this unexpected nostalgia flashback to my childhood.

Please, Do a review on Stunts now.

Stunts was amazing, specially because of the trackbuilder that was probably the best ever until trackmania came out. But this game seems to share the same engine. Similar menus and overall graphics. Not like Indy400 that was a different breed

Definitely an incredible game.. but in my opinion, Trackmania is a very good and worthy descendent of Stunts. Many great old games don't have a modern alias (even the latest Doom, although being good, lost a lot of the character from the original one).

MerolaC The soundtrack of this game is amazing. Imagine a compete reboot.

I was obsessed with this game. It was the best realism for its time

In many ways I certainly agree. Stunts just feels more... fun somehow. This one's enjoyable, but in a different way

This is the game that started it all for me 25 years ago. Thank you Stunt Driver! And thank you LGR.

This was the first game i played against another person connected via modem, making it the first multiplayer experience for me. I still remember how fantastic that felt at the time. We had to call each other on another line to talk about it.

Stunts is much much better.

One thing I like better about Stunt Driver though, is that you can bump into the opponents car and shove them away. In Stunts, if you touch your opponent your car breaks immediately. Somehow I lost the disk that Stunt Driver was on (perhaps someone borrowed it and never gave it back or sth) and remember often missing that feature whenever I played Stunts afterwards. Then it was like Stunt Driver (of which I didn't even know the correct up until now) was removed from existence. No one had it, no one knew about it. Everyone had Stunts. I'm really glad to see Stunt Driver getting at least a bit of fame here.

モチポンズ Or that moment you realize you hit the jump too fast and your car exploded on impact. I also remember lightly bumping a car that was on fire only to be launched across the track.

Bought a midway arcade classic disk for PS2 for like 2 cents here the other day, still sealed in the box. Hard driving was on there to. And I had a blast playing it last night. It's still good fun for a little while.

Man, it has been a while since I've remembered this game. I played the hell out of it as a kid.

Wow. Watching this video and hearing those sounds brought back some serious memories. I spent way, WAY too much time playing Stunt Driver as a teen. I would spend hours making tracks and then hours more playing them over a serial connection with my family. This is one game I wish could get a remake :)

My friends and I loved creating ridiculous tracks with the track editor. The goal was always to make a track completely insane, but with a small chance that you could actually make it.

One of the few PC games I still have in the box from my childhood. Awesome!

Great review! This is the way they should be - both reviews - and games - bonus comparison too. Played this at one of the places at baltimore inner-harbor, some science museum - maybe smithsonian institute around 92 or so? They had one of these 'hard drivin' arcade cabinets in the section devoted to technology - I couldn't get enough of it at 10 years old.

I downloaded this game back in the day as "abandonware" on my old Packard Bell hand me down. I actually got to play this online via a third party LAN over internet client, but I can't even remember what it was called. It worked but my brother and I had many more enjoyable hours just playing together taking turns and whatnot. The replay feature really was what made it.

I'd actually love to see a review of Hard Drivin'. That game was fantastic.

Hard Drivin' was my FAVORITE arcade game of all time. Stunt Driver was my first driving simulator game I had at home. From there I progressed to Stunts. Also an excellent game at the time.

Just finished your two part series for Need For Speed and remembered that before that game my very first driving game was Stunt Driver. So happy to see you covered it!

Nice to see Zeus continued to get voice over work after his Altered Beast gig.

Great review. I used to play the crap out of this game in 1990. My dad bought a steering wheel controller which I used for this an Vette until the damn thing wore out. Truly golden days.

I'm impressed that Stunts came out in the same year as this one. Stunts is far superior, with smoother controls, lots of cars, and a much more versatile track editor. Stunt Driver just felt limited and cheesy to me. Stunts still has an active community to this day, and there's an open source "spiritual successor" to it being developed, called "Ultimate Stunts".

Have to agree with that. Stunts looks, handles and sounds much much better. The music is great!

the box art reminds me of the original European release of Driver. Very similar style, even if the games have nothing whatsoever in common

Thumbs up for the great review!

Great review!

I remember Stuntz. There was fun bug in the game. When your opponent got destroyed, drive slowly toward it's car. If done correct your car, opponent's car or both fill shoot into air in random direction. We got many hilarious replays by this way.

Couldn't be more classic!

my dad had this on his 386 i played the hell out of it when i was a kid, creating tracks so fun

Great work Sir

I miss these type of racing games. During the early 90's, Stunt racers were everywhere...

I grew up on this game (amongst other older than dirt games), it was amazing. I spent hundreds of hours playing this one! There were a ton of great drivers available when this game came out. Vette! comes to mind, and destruction derby / need for speed SE shortly after.

I played the heck out of this on our 486 DX2 66 MHz back in the day! It was cheap but still available in 1994 for very little allowance money :)

I used to play this game so much! awesome!

You should totally review Interstate 76.

This video has been uploaded on my birthday YAY!

SO MUCH memories, my brain can't take it. I forgot about this one. You could make your own tracks ffs, wonderfull.

I had this back in the day.

You could also rebound off the cows on the side of the track, if you set up a huge jump and then a corner, you could do the jump, rebound off a cow that would go 'moo' and do the jump in reverse.

Hi LGR, I really like your reviews. But when you're reviewing PC games, it would be really cool if you could mention system requirements, and machine that you reviewed on. Event better if you'd mention how the game performed on this machine (unless it was DOS-BOX or similar ...

I really spent days on this game: one of the funniest things was to go on the cars that stopped before the bridge when this was opened and too high to be jumped, and send them into the flume :D

Man I remember playing hard driven as a kid ah the nostalgia

I LOVED this game. I remember it being hard as balls, but also fun as balls.

Fukn love that couch!

I love this game. I regret selling it but if I got an old Dos PC running again this would be a must buy. One of my favorite old DOS games. Great review :)

My friends & I used to cart our pc’s to each others house to play this on link!

I love this intro

Great game remember this from my amiga days, the graphics blew me away!!

dude i would die for your game collection

I had both stunts and stunt driver, and yes, stunts was superior in driveability and car selection, stunt driver was no comparison when played back to back.

wow I would buy that if it came out today!!!

i had both stunt driver and stunts which was much better

+Scott Long Yeah, it controlled much better and had more options. I wish the cars were more balanced though; some of them were just worthless on half the maps.

Question: is there a cow in this game? My favorite part of Hard Drivin' on the Genesis was deliberately running into the cow.

Lol that's nearly the only reason I played hard drivin was to run into the cow and made it go MOOOOO!

My friend and I used to play the crap out of Stunts.

5:55 online mode. YES! We played a lot on COM port! :D

First PC game I got back in 90 from eBay games. My brother got wing commander...

You can't forget granny, all of the sudden going to super pursuit mode and Chase everybody down, kind of like what used to happen in RC pro am

Is there any chance you're going to review Stunts as well at some point?

I had this game.

I never played this game but I did play Stunt Car Racer on the Amiga.

Read the title of this video and the first thing that came to my mind was this scene 4:17 i laughed everytime as a kid when hood of the car fell down on the mechanic :)

Stunt Track DRIVER for DOS is great too. The graphics are great, and it's really fun.

The "fasten you seatbelt" thing happened in "Stunts" (aka 4D Sports Driving), but not in this, which is "Stunt Driver"!

LGR from 14 years ago hits different. Doesn't even sound like the same person.

stunts was the best

I forgot this game ever existed...

STUNTS was one of my favourite games when I was a kid! So imressive, building your own tracks and choose from different cars! Does anyone know, where I can find this game these days? Would be nice to do a remake for mobile phones! :O

stunt!! i love that game!! I love created imposssible traqcks in the editor!!

haha i remember this game, i played it so long ago awesome, this must be why i liked trackmania lol

LGR,ur the best gamer,no doubt!

it's been 12 years, Clint! Review Stunts!

damn your good i mean u review them awsome !

I was just saying "Hollywood Stunt Driver" would be a fun game idea. Although I was picturing more of a Burnout style challenge game

2.35 gentleman? i always heard "depoman"! only now this phrase make a sense

Looks fun, ngl

I loved this thing. Especially the mapeditor :) Ah wait, this isn't Stunt huh...

This game I used to play a ton as a kid! I remember a number of quirks in the game too, like how the CPU drivers won't race properly if you're not in cockpit view, or the fact that the hood of your car doesn't vibrate in 256 colors mode, but does in 16, and I think others as well. Also, I should point out that there is *NO* music in the game! At least, there isn't in the floppy versions. There might be some in the CD-ROM version, since it'd be a waste of space to only have a game that can fit on a single 3¾ inch floppy on a format that could hold 700+ of them!

I remember playing Stunts when i was little. i made cool tracks even though i sucked at driving. lol. i actually thought this was the same game when i started watching. it IS very similar.

Hard Drivin' for ZX Spectrum :)

I think that the trackeditor in this game and/or stunts inspired a few frenchman that later formed Nadeo, the studio behind the Trackmania race games.

I think this might have been my first boxed pc game. I think it also might have been the first pc game I played over a modem, unless you count BBS "games".

I know this is an old review, but that line 'Especially if your tired of that old formula set by Pole Position, and Outrun' Outrun, had a branching game play mechanic, that even the sequels didn't even reproduce (I dunno why) and added at least some visual differences as well as game play differences, but that's just me

This game has an advanced or better graphics mode for top end hardware (of the time). It was noted by slightly better graphics and the air scoop in the hood would shake with the rev'ing of the engine. I am surprised you are not using it. I had this game (and Stunts) when they came out and upgraded by hardware to take advantage of their advanced graphics settings. Stunts is waaaay better but this game held its own.

wish i woulda had this game while I was playing Hard Driving on SNEs

would be awesome! your reviews are fun and great! There is also a game called "LHX Attack Chopper" for DOS, maybe you wanna check it out. It's actually quite a fun game.

When you reach the top speed put in Neutral without releasing accelerator button and it's done ;) I discovered it by myself when I was young and now I know that it was a well knew cheat :D

Hard Drivin' had played a version of that on the Genesis and while impressive for the day in some ways ...boy that game did not stand the test of time.

There was actually another stunt driver game released for the PS2 and it's not half bad if you look past the extremely long load time for each new screen

Stunts

yeah, i wanna know too

If you edited the config file, you could race as any of the cars, and change up your opponents. There were a bunch of opponents and cars they didn't add to the game for some reason. It made the replayability endless.

It seems to me like LGR likes cars... I hope you do man.. If you do then i love you that much more :D

The shark at 6:46 looks shocked to see you appear in its watery domain. I assume it's the one hoping you can swim...

DAMN!!! My laptop went crazy and I accidently flagged this video!!! :( Good video as always thought :)

hehe nice, precisely 10 years and 1 day after the video was up it gave me the recommendation! Question now: did you use to film on analog tape? Looks a bit (specially that bottom part) like some S-VHS or Hi8 or so

What's the song you used in the background during the introduction of the box and such?

Is that font on the box the same as the "Simulator" series of games?

You should review Stunts

Aww, gotta get the memory config right to see the shaker hood in action.... I always thought the physics seemed a little more realistic than Stunts, but at the same time I found the game borderline unplayable. I modded the Iroc to look like KITT and just made a track that was all paved but with low friction... good times....

also,did you made the intro music?if no,can you tell me how its called?its really awesome!
