JoeTheDestroyer's BC Racers review

Gary Gritta -- that's an unfortunate reference, alright.

In my head (where I spend most of my time) this seemed like it might have been one of the better 32X games. How do you screw up a Mario Kart clone, after all? Everyone's made passable attempts, from Sonic to Bomberman to Cocoto. Remember him? Of course you do. Guess it's back to mediocre obscurity for Chuck Rock.

I always question what the point of Chuck Rock's musical themes were. Chuck was in a band and occasionally crossed paths with cavemen named after popular artists. However, there was nothing really about his games that exuded music. Sure, the Sega CD version of the first game had a pretty good soundtrack, but there were no other references to music or anything. I mean, they may as well have named all of the characters after famous painters or famous poets.

As for Mario Kart ripoffs, I haven't played many, though I know they exist. I keep hearing that the first Sonic R and Crash Team Racing are great ones, though I've never touched either.
