Santulli Slant: There’s something satisfyingly anarchic about this game, where the goal is to ram other vehicles into trees, walls, and other stationary obstacles, leaving driver and vehicle in a sickening heap of bone and twisted metal (or so I would imagine). If you’re going fast enough, you can get airborne and come crashing down on other cars, leaving bloody husks of charred flesh in your wake (there I go again). Surprisingly, the Intellivision and ColecoVision version are far superior (and more closely resemble the arcade version) to the NES version, which takes some liberties with the gameplay in attempting to "update" it.
