Destruction Derby 2!

I had the first Destruction Derby for Saturn and enjoyed it. I also played it quite a few times on Playstation with the link cable which was a lot of fun.

I think the big complaint on the first game is that collisions never sent your car airborne. The sequel was just the opposite -- nearly every collision does! I thought the sequel went too far with the physics. The cars seemed light as a feather and could blow away too easily.

Not sure, but I don't think it did.

It also adds more ways to score points than there are on the PSX, and a few other things too I think.

I love Demolition Racer on the DC! I got it for like 3 bucks, complete, and I was busy unlocking all of the bonus content for at least a few weeks! The multiplayer in that game is a ton of fun. I love the hybrid of racing but also being able to wreck your opponent's cars, it's really a blast. The only downside is the abysmal soundtrack, but I just set it the music to zero and put on my own stuff. Highly recommended!

Ok, just go for PS1 disc and an emulator with Pete's OpenGL 2 plugin then. But if you think that DD1 has bad graphics, then DD2 will probably disappoint you too. It's not very different. DD Raw has better graphics and because of that PS1 struggles to run the game at a decent framerate.
