The catalog in 3D
The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
A loud, anarchic smash-fest where grinding metal and crumpling cars take priority over clean racing lines.

About
With no rules, no limits and no pit stopping, anything goes in this collision course of crumple zones, hit & run mayhem, and street level slamming where wrecking your opponent's motor in ultra-realistic smashes and crashes is the name of the game. Take on the rigors of a full Championship season and pit your wits against a motley crew of psycho-waster racers such as the Suicide Squaddies, Skum and The Optician as you storm up the rankings from Rookie to Pro. Reckon you can handle it? Destruction Derby works with a serial link cable for two player head-to-head action.
What players say
An early crash-fest with impressive real-time damage physics that felt novel and chaotic, though it never fully balanced racing against smashing. Outshone by faster PS1 rivals and its own superior sequel, it's a flawed but historically notable pioneer.
