I remember seeing that video interview once before. I don't understand how that could even be called a game!

Awful, it just goes straight through the walls.
But if you're all about the destination, then take a fucking flight.
We're going nowhere slowly, but we're seeing all the sights.
And we're definitely going to hell, but we'll have all the best stories to tell.


Full of the heavens and time.

I can't decide which I find more brilliant; the fact that your race opponent is simply not programmed to move, or the way that the truck, instead of driving over bridges, simply drives through them, down the chasm and back up the other side :D

Watched the video clip. Hideous! I've played (or tried playing) some crappy racing games with crappy controls in my time, but this thing looks unbelievably awful. It's just a cynical cash grab by those who "developed" the game.

Big Rigs' first and most grievous issue lies in its gameplay. Specifically, there isn't any.
The supposedly computer-controlled truck you're supposed to be racing against in the game never actually moves. It's right there next to you at the beginning of a race, but it has no purpose in the game.
Also, the reason we state that there are only four environments in the game, instead of the five we previously cited, is because we could only get four of them to actually work. When trying to load the fifth environment, the game simply quit and returned us to the desktop on all of the computers that we tried.

If the goal was to create the world's most broken trucking game, then Big Rigs is a resounding success.
:lol:

Have you watched the video? It really illustrates just how bad this game is.
