Interstate 76 is the best game that your computer cant run. When this game came out i was working in the wholesale computer parts business, i had access to all the latest & greatest hardware. I tried dozens of different configurations & never could get I76 to run properly. That didnt stop me from enjoying the hell out of it tho.
IIRC it really wanted a voodoo card, which was a problem because the game came out shortly after voodoo went belly up. The graphics looked really good in glide mode, but it was so unstable you couldnt really play it that way, so you pretty much had to have a very high-end voodoo card, which as i mentioned above, they had just recently stopped making.

Still waiting on the Interstate 82 review, Clint! I've heard that, for the Interstate 76 soundtrack, they went and found vintage sound recording equipment, not just vintage instruments, to make the soundtrack more authentic. And I agree wholeheartedly, the soundtrack is absolutely phenomenal! I've listened to it by itself many, many times. I honestly believe that every track, had you put lyrics to it, could absolutely have been a hit on the radio!

One thing that I love about your show is the reminder of when I was a kid. Back when I didn-t care about the version of a game or the release date but the box art that made me want the game. Voodoo3d graphic card first upgrade of my pc for gta2. The mod community was so much alive. Every episode of yours is another trip down memory lane.

This is my favorite game of all time. I imagine there's never been a remake because Activision owns the rights since they developed it (when they were still a developer) and that's a damn shame. If their actions weren't dictated by corporate boardrooms and shareholder meetings, we'd have seen a remake a long time ago.

I remember reading the reviews of this game back in Hyper magazine and trying desperately to figure out where I could download it illegally. Being the early days of the Internet, there were plenty of links for warez but the issue was that ADSL hadn't come along yet so everything took too long to download.

Here's a better idea, play Vigilante 8 for the PlayStation! It's the spiritual successor/spinoff to this game, and in my opinion it's a lot more refined. Better graphics too, of course! Just play on an original PlayStation because it has graphical glitches on PS2 and PS3.

Absolutely loved this game. When it worked. And pistol out the window was the best way to finish someone off without an ensuing fireball meaning the salvage had a lot less damage. It took some skill and patience to drive while looking out the side windows though.

I remember 12-year-old me playing Interstate '76 online, with a [ crew name ] handle in front of my username. It's actually pretty incredible that it worked the way it did all the way back then, with limited latency and some level of reliability. Take me back!

Back in 98 I was jealous of everyone that had a Nintendo 64 and Playstation. All I had was a Packard Bell PC and these Activision sim games. I didn't realize years later I had the better gaming experience. None of the consoles could ever run games like this.

Fun tidbit, I was in a clan for Interstate 76 called Grand Funk Highway. We won a contest that gave us custom sound clips recorded with the voice actors from I76 reading off our game names and a cool voice over intro for the clan website.
