The community generally agrees that Carmageddon's music greatly enhances the gameplay experience regardless of whichever game in the series is being referred to, which, considering the almost-universally negative reception of TDR 2000, speaks volumes about how suitable The Power of Rock accompanies a vehicular slayfest.

TDR 2000 features a blend of hip-hop, rock and metal songs, and Reincarnation & Max Damage bring back a few of Fear Factory's songs from the first game, but a vast majority of its soundtrack is a combination of hard rock and heavy metal songs composed by Maximum Sexy Pigeon and Morgue.

Autobots, Rock Out!: The first game's Redbook Audio features instrumental versions of several Fear Factory songs, played by Fear Factory themselves, while Carmageddon 2 features music from Iron Maiden and Sentience.

This, combined with the increase in the average vehicle's speed later in the game, means that even as your armor gets stronger, your chances of getting wasted also become paradoxically higher. However, God help you if you run (or get knocked) too fast into any pointed edge of the world's geometry note such as the corners of buildings or road barricades, as the armor value doesn't affect the chances of your car getting split in half, which usually gets you wasted. Getting more armor makes it a lot harder for the opponents to raze your car from direct damage, to the point where getting hit by even the Big Dump won't bend your chassis a single centimeter.

The latest game in the series, Carmageddon: Reincarnation, was released in April 2015 after a Sequel Gap of over a decade. There are well over two-dozen different cars available to drive in the original game.Ĭompared to the strict linearity of most racing games, the ability to drive anywhere in the city - power-ups like Pinball Car, Ultra Grip Tires, and Moon Gravity pushing the definition of "anywhere" further than you might imagine - combined with the cartoony but consistent physics engine (the Instant Handbrake even works in mid-air and the Solid Granite Car will save you a lot of repair costs) make Carmageddon quite memorable.įour installments were eventually released, although by the time of the third one, games of this specific genre were already quite prolific. Each car in the game is unique -enabling a completely different playing style - so destroying more enemies means improving your arsenal and repertoire. It helps if you can find the Pedestrians Shown on Map power-up, of course.ĭestroying your opponents is also encouraged because you might win the car they were driving. It should, however, be noted that until you get access to the post-completion-only cars, this is extremely difficult. For extra sadism value, races may also be won by killing all civilians on the map.
