It only seems to require hundreds of hours of practice, or perfect condition of the arcade controllers. Preferably both. But frankly, I was pretty suspicious of the game ever having been properly good, and your comment only confirms that. Better graphics doesn't equal a better game necessarily, although in this case, the good scrolling helps to determine whether the game is any good or not. In this case: not. And I admit, the 8-bits are all horrible, but I never really thought they'd be anything more. I'm only surprised they even bothered to make the conversions.<br /><br />I'd still like to hear from people who actually thought this game was good at the time, and perhaps still do. Seems like an incredibly small minority.FRGCB Dudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16754639927704915007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7514691251207559863.post-49923817446400451842015-01-13T11:24:50.114+02:002015-01-13T11:24:50.114+02:00The only conversion I have played was for the Atar...The only conversion I have played was for the Atari ST which I found awful with the mouse as the controller. I don't know how you could have the patience to play Hard Drivin' on the 8-bits.<br /><br />I was (un)fortunate enough to have a couple of goes on the original sit down arcade game and from what I remember it was pretty bad too. The graphics were good but the force feedback steering wheel seemed to have a life of its own and bore no relation to what was happening on screen.<br /><br />Thankfully driving games have improved a lot since then.Wingnuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07859158206963441813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7514691251207559863.post-63455152311379827782015-01-12T19:01:10.079+02:002015-01-12T19:01:10.079+02:00Arcade machine was amazing in terms of technology ...Arcade machine was amazing in terms of technology with its 3D graphics at the time.<br /><br />Unfortunatelly the conversions, I recall playing the ZX and the PC ones, were far away of it.<br /><br />On the Speccy is understandable due to hardware limitations, but the work on PC was not impressive.javiergutierrezchamorro.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16800895077132973342noreply@blogger.com
