Description
Carmageddon II is essentially more of the same. Whether this is a good or bad thing pretty much depends on how you liked
the first.
In case you need to be told, this game sends the politically-correct-o-meter flying towards absolute zero, perhaps only beaten by
Duke Nukem 3D. The framework is a futuristic race inspired by
Deathrace 2000 and
The Cars That Ate Paris: The contestants, in sport cars, monster trucks, and other motorized abominations, are placed on a track, a real populated area. Getting to the finish line first is secondary, and in fact seldom happens; the real winner is the one to trash everyone else, running over pedestrians on the way for extra profit.
