Ignition - RARE PC Game

You are looking at computer game Ignition.

In an exotic range of vehicles and around some of the harshest circuits ever devised, you've got to ram, nudge, barge and otherwise cheat your way to victory. If you spot a sneaky shortcut, then use it - if your opponents hugging the cliff edge then give him a nudge and a salute as you cruise into the lead and he cruises into a deep gorge.

Ignition is an action packed racing game viewed from above and slightly behind the player. The cars on offer range from police car and VW Beetle to school bus and truck, each of which has its own strengths and weaknesses - trying to win with the bus, which involves blocking everyone behind the hideously slow vehicle for 3 laps, is perhaps the ultimate challenge.

Initially there are 5 tracks available, with practice and single race modes as well as full championship at 3 levels - winning each of the first 2 levels unlocks an extra track. They all have hazards running through them, and sections where you must make a split-second choice between the safer route and the risky but potentially rewarding one. Multiplayer can be done via network or by split-screen - in a break with convention the screen is split vertically rather than horizontally.

Features:
* Several unique race tracks from the Lost Ruins to Cape Thor
* 11 unusual vehicles from monster trucks to jungle jeeps
* Funky smooth-scrolling overhead race view
* Gorgeous rendered graphics
* Two player split screen model
* Race up to five friends on an IPX Network
