Combat Cars
Lost in the shifting sands of the time there’s a little game called Combat Cars. It’s often referred to (if referred to at all) as a Micro Machines clone. Having never played Micro Machines, I don’t know whether that’s true or not. What I do know is that Combat Cars is a very nice arcade racer that’s worth being played and referred to without MM’s shadow looming over the conversation.

Yuzo Koshiro’s challenging action/RPG was well-received by gamers, though far too many people missed out on its Saturn-only prequel. The original still impresses today, with great presentation and engaging gameplay.
