Where can i get the 1.0 patch for big rigs over the road racing. I want it because it allows you to play track 4.
I found 3 fan sites.

Why do you want to buy a game that comfortably shows up whenever you google for "worst game ever"? 😳

Nonetheless, you can find the patch here. Don't hope too much, though.

Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing v1.0 Patch [File]

This patch does hardly anything to resolve the variety of show-stopping bugs and gameplay issues plaguing this game.

Never thought this thread would be that long, but now, for something different.....

Wow thank you.
The game has a more open feel which would never work on a car game but works on this game perfectly.
The trucks seem to have good handling physics
the trucks sound like trucks
the trucks look like trucks
The menu looks very good
The controls are supposedly very simple

Bads
collision detection
these apear to be minor problem to me game crashes sommetimes, and i can go off the road
You can go over 500 mph in reverse. ( Not a big problem as i can just not use reverse for that long)

By looks alone i give it an 8.4

I have never played the game but i want to buy it.

anybody that doesn't understand what could be so bad about that game should find the review from X-Play (don't have a link handy; g4tv.com)
not sure if the video is there, but I watched the review on TV and believe you me it's painful 😢 (which has one L; not to be the spelling correction guy 😉)

If you look hard enough, you'll find something you don't like.

Funny isn't it - I met someone the other day who said the System Shock 1 was NOT the greatest game of all time, and undoubtedly not the greatest game that will EVER be made.

This personal taste and individual sense of enjoyment thing has gone TOO FAR!!!!!1!
