well, the gameplay video either doesn't have the track that I used to play on, or it's not the same game.

Either way, I can't wait to play Motorhead. The track designs look like someone mixed Dethkarz and Rollcage together. Looks freakin' awesome. Even if it turns out not to be the game I was looking for, something good came out of this.

Around the same time frame.... and also hilariously shoehorned with Nascar... Jeff Gordon XS Racing?

Need for Speed 2 and newer was for Windows...

How about Midtown Madness?
Or newer: Midnight Club, Crashday?

Of all of these Motorhead looks the closest to the blurry image in my memory. Might just be it. I'll let you know when I get my hands on it.

One of the Rollcage games maybe?
I didn't mention them before because I hardly consider them obscure.

Nope. I remember having a Rollcage demo back then and the full version is sitting on my hard drive right now waiting for me to finish playing other stuff.

OT: does the forum have a dedicated 'identify this game' thread? I have several old games in mind that I've forgotten the names of.

Account retired. Now posting as Errius.

I don't think so. If there was, a moderator would have probably put the posts of this thread in there.

what gets me is the car was basically a rectangle however by the mid 90 let alone the early 2000s graphics had notable advanced beyond that point. it could be a REALLY obscure ultra small time/homemade game.

Viper Racing or maybe Wipeout 2097 / Wipeout XL?
