Just been going through some ols stuff of mine and came across a game I used to play years ago....

...Did any of you guys play "Road Rash" on PC or PS? I loved that game when it first came out...alas my monitor wont support 640x480 res...
The music on it was great...Soundgarden-Rusty Cage, and Swervedriver -Last train to Satansville....Great stuff....anyway, those old games were great!

Holy crap yeah! This game got me into Soundgarden. Nothing like a swift chain to the face to sort out those other riders!

it got me into swervedriver....the chain was good, but I just preferred a good kick!

Indecently the track Rusty Cage by Soundgarden was a cover of a Johnny Cash song done in late 60s

God, yeah ... Blast from the past. My daughter used to play that all the time when she was a nipper. I'm rubbish at gaming machines, but I love to watch other more competent people playing them.

Good times. I spent hours thrashing road rash on the master system. Gave my thumbs a good rash too.

I hate to be picky, But that's wrong. Rusty Cage was covered by Johnny Cash for his 1996 album entitled Unchained.

omg, I cant believe Im actually hearing people talk about the sega master system!!! I had one of those WAY back in the day and I loved that rig.

I atually owned one of the early home gaming systems. It was called "Calico Vision"......anybody remmember that system? It was the shit until NES came along and conquered all for awhile. I remmember we all used to play Calico Vision on the weekend......then one of my friends got NES and his house became the new hang out destination for all the kids on the street. LOL. Those were the days of gaming nirvana.

Road Rash rocked. Played it on the original Playstation.
Prior to that I had an Atari 2600 from 1982 through 1990 or so...

I had and STILL HAVE road rash for Sega mega drive *Smug face*. Sega mega drive. With, CD extension :O Fuck I was the coolest kid on the block. Untill I realised I had no friends.
But phwoar, the diablo 1000S or w/e it was, fatass bike that you had to brake around corners for. *scratches head*.
Good times man, good times.

*P.s, hated the goddamn cops, always pushing you off the road. What was his hair colour? :dodge:*
