Cruis'n Exotica for Nintendo 64

While there are many different types of racing games, one might say generally that the genre splits into two categories: one for people who know the difference between a rocker arm assembly and a cam follower chamber, and one for people who just like to burn rubber and jump things. Cruis'n Exotica falls decidedly in the latter category. You don't have to put your car together before you drive it, and you certainly aren't restricted to an oval track--or even the road, for that matter. You'll race through prehistoric jungles, the ocean floor, and even a Martian city (imagine your competition, choking on your red dust), as you perform midair stunts along the way. There are loads of exotic vehicles just waiting for a nice lead foot, as well as shortcuts, nitro boosts, and 60 tracks in all. Your friends can join in, too, thanks to the four-player, simultaneous split-screen mode.
