Vigilante 8 via XBLA? My god, I haven’t played that game since…well since it came out on the PSX forever ago.

As far as car combat goes, it’s the one brand I’d be willing to revisit. Those sticky rockets you can fire onto other vehicles will forever be one of my favorite ways to “make your own fun” with a videogame. I’d download it just for that alone.

I’ll never forget the time I almost peed myself laughing when we got that schoolbus about twelve stories in the air and spinning so fast the driver must have been painting the windshield with his lunch.

Ahhhh, good times.

I’m sure there’s a post in there somewhere about taking a combat car game and turning it into a clowning stunt festival despite the AI’s penchant for trying to murder you, but it’s late, and I’m tired, and I just want to play a game and go to bed.
