It's not the best RC car game ever. I can't say it's the most unique. But i remember this being on one of the many CDs brothers left to play. I loved unlocking the worm car. I loved going through the "campaign" mode too. Or just racing around watching big flames coming out of the RC cars whenever i press the nitro button. Well there is a place this game can be found and it runs on win10 without a problem. But would be still nice to have it here too. Maybe Team17 would make a remaster or spiritual successor, if it gets popular enough
This is a very unique kind of game, a genre that was once popular but nearly extinct these days. I have fond memories of it and it's still fun to play, especially since there's nothing else that would be even remotely similar to how it looks and feels. Sure, it's a niche title but it's very much worth of preservation. GOG already has most of Team17 games available in their store, but SGP is the missing little gem.
It's probably also worth noting that it tends to run very well under modern Windows (idk about Linux/Wine, as i haven't tried), especially in 3Dfx Glide mode with a wrapper like nGlide
I have great memories of playing this game when I was little. I think I got it as a gift although I'm not sure. Anyways, this is a very unique game. There are around 15 or so cars and all of them have completely different mechanics: some may be faster but harder to steer for example. The only things that makes all of them connected are the stunts which you can do on ramps and such. Doing a certain stunt (like a backflip, frontflip or other) will award you with more battery power (which overally runs out the more you drive or use a nitro). In my personal opinion this was such a cool idea for a racing game and I hope that more people will find out about it. Also, the community of the game is currently working on a remake entirely made in unity called "Stunt GP Remastered". You can find it on Itch.io. I reccomend it a lot.
speedy stylish game with bit too cluttered interface, very destinct style between the speed, stunt and offroad classes of cars, fairly strong AI, HUGE replayability....
Yes yes it has issues but generaly it always played like a dream - fast paces arcade game that allowed players to apply strategy against AI (you can make NPC burn its battery and need to rechard whilst you keep yours topped up by doing stunts or you can also burn your battery trying to pull ahead).
it is my personal pick for best arcade style racing because of its versatility of terrain its decent depth of modification (wheels, suspension, chasis, battery, even which wheels are powered can be in SOME cases changed) - incredible!
i can not beleive it has not been re-released on digital yet!
This game made me who I am today - A Game Designer!
I remember my uncle owning the CD edition of this game for his W_xp PC. I would sink hours into the game. From trying to unlock the fastest car to setting high stunt scores, to even trying to speedrun the arcade mode. It is a game that has been long forgotten and a game that deserves a remake!
Today I am making that remake in UE5 with support for multiplayer over Steam as the original game only had split screen support!
It is very hard to find a legitamate copy of this game anywhere - especially on disk! It would be a dream to own it fully and have the necessary support to run it easily on any device! Just one more race, please! ;-;
Another great game lost in time but not because of developers, unfortunately game fall into copyright limbo and nobody knows to who this game belongs exactly, thats mainly reason why it is not back on retail and a good one to bring it back to GOG, game deserves it, it was simply, fun and had nice soundtrack. Cars were fun to drive and tracks were balanced in its difficulty level although you still needed some knowledge of how to set up your car and how to drive certain tracks but that made it even more fun. Remember playing Demo a lot as a child where only available cars were Stunt Monkey, Dune Buggy and Mean Streak but it was still a really fun game to play especially with all these stunts :)

Jet Set Radio HDJet Set Radio HD is the latest remaster in a string of Dreamcast "hits" to see new life on download platforms, but Sega has been insistent that they've learned its lessons. The publisher has emphasized how hard it's trying to get things right this time, and for many, it couldn't have chosen a better game.
Jet Set Radio was part of Sega's onslaught of new properties with an emphasis on flash and style during the second wave of Dreamcast software, but it might be one of the more obscure. It's a game that almost everyone has heard of, but I think few have actually played. This was remedied somewhat with 2002's Xbox sequel Jet Set Radio Future. Unlike Sonic Adventure or the arcade hit Crazy Taxi, Jet Set Radio HD is the chance for many to finally play a game they've only heard about.
Nostalgia has the side effect of high expectations though, and Jet Set Radio HD just can't meet them. While the flash and style of Jet Set Radio HD remains untouched and unvarnished by a dozen years of progress, the rest of it can't stand up to scrutiny. Squirrely controls, camera catastrophes, and nonsensical level design make Jet Set Radio HD a better memory than game.Action

Sega GT 2002Sega GT 2002 is a sim racing video game published by Sega. It is the sequel to Wow Entertainment's Racing Game Sega GT, released in 2002. The game was originally intended to be released for the Dreamcast, but when the Dreamcast was discontinued in 2001, the game was reprogrammed for the Xbox. Following its initial release as a retail game, it was given away on a disk with Jet Set Radio Future in specially-marked Xbox console packages. Sega released Sega GT Online for the following year, with extra cars and an online facility to be used with the Xbox Live. Despite being an Xbox exclusive, the franchise would later die off and as a result, the Forza Motorsport series would later come to Xbox starting in 2005, and would later have sequels to counter the Gran Turismo franchise.
Sega GT 2002 introduced plenty of innovative features, many of which were later adopted by future games of its kind.Non-fiction
