I Recently was able to load up a old dos game back for 1993 called Test Drive 3 The Passion

To this date this game thats not even 1MB big Is still the King for all Arcade Racing title ever Release

lets take a small run down on what this 200K game has that these 12 GIG 2010 arcade racing games are missing

1) Weather. its missing in my mockup video but any one that has played the game dose know this that TestDrive 3 will go from: Sunny/ThunderStorm/Rain/lightning/Snow/blizzerd. It all effects how you drive.

2a) Day/Night cyles. as seen in the video there day and night

2b) Headlights, yes they work. No Game that I can think off has working headlights

3)in house Music/Radio. Will todays game none of them us in House music any more.. and then complain aobut having to pay roylitys to use some one eles music

4) Live FreeRoam. You would not know this but TD3 is the first game to have Unrestriced FreeRoam. This is the true meaning of freeroam were players can drive off road and not hit a Invisible wall. (map loops) drive of one edge of the map show up on the oppsite end. (Monster Truck madness had this in it races too)

5a)Living Envirrment. Notice the working Traffic Lights, a Complete working RailRoad system, Animanls, Working Airport System, LightHoues and strob lights, and Smart AI traffic,

5b)Traffic that works. Notice how the traffic dose not swerve into you, Notice how they obay traffic lights and stop signs? (some times they glich and will drive through) but the most part it works..

6)Collistion Detection that works. None of this makinga car fly into the error.. you hit a object you pay the price. This includes lakes and seas.

What ever happen to progress? seem like all devs car aobut is cheap shortCuts and Graphics...

Sorry Graphics don't sell. Only gameplay!
