The Championship mode obviously offers you the chance to unlock new courses and cars if you can win the DD league. It's still fair all-round entertainment, but in these days of the weaponed-up Vigilante 8 and the straight-laced brilliance of World Driver, a game that falls between the two, but does neither particularly well, looks a bit like your Dad trying to dance at a school disco: old, unfashionable and hopelessly out of place.ĭD64 offers the same sort of option choices as the second Destruction Derby on the PlayStation.

But, the endlessly derivative courses, cardboard box cars and rapidly grating commentary seem somehow less appealing at the end of 1999. Not surprising considering it's arrived about three years too late. Present day, and this astonishingly late conversion looks and feels a little tired. Four years ago, when Destruction Derby first appeared as a launch game for the PlayStation, the idea of driving very fast into other cars for points and then watching with an evil glint as bits of bumper, door and wheel flew off was - incredibly - good fun.
