Rally Cross
About the Game
A chaotic, and bouncy rally racing game. One of the aspects of this game that set it aside from other games at this time was the variety of the terrain. Not only is it off-road, but the course is filled with jumps, dips, hairpins, and off camber turns. Consequently, it is very common for the car to flip upside down.
Gameplay & Core Systems
By pressing the shoulder buttons, players can rock the car left or right. Up to 4 players can play the game in split screen mode.
Standout Features
- Any of the course can be raced forwards or backwards, and there is a season mode as well as the single race mode.
- One trick to increase performance is that the buttons that rock the car upright, can also be used to prevent flipping in tight corners.
Modes & Ways to Play
In order to increase the chaos, there is a suicide-mode where you race the course in the opposite direction of the other cars.
Player support includes Same/Split-Screen, Free-for-all / One-on-one (VS), and 1-2 Players.
