So after picking up my daughter from a soccer game today, I happened to come across a garage sale. He had games up for sale so I decided to look around. Well there was nothing I liked so as I was turning around to leave the man said "Hey, just take this one for free." He gave me the game called Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing.

I've never really heard about this game. Is it old? Do I need high CPU requirements to run this game and is it any good? Does it have online multiplayer? Please give me some info, I'm really eager to try out this game. Thanks. :)

I'm not sure if you're being serious, but if you are, everything I've heard about it is that it is the worst game ever. Don't think it requires anything of value for system requirements. Don't expect much.

Well, i dont know why would anyone like a very old terrible budget and very buggy both in gameplay and graphics/visuals game that you run around with a truck that handles like crap and....no wait, thats it. Thats all it has in it.

The game is broken, literally.. There is no actual race... Not even all the maps work.. .. the other car doesn't move.. bridges aren't actually there. you can go ANYWHERE.. just youtube some gameplay. It is actually one of the worst games ever made.

Its so good, it actually scored an 11...but the scale doesnt go that high, so it went up to 10, came around, and then scored a 1.

Seriously... where can I get a copy? I've already tried eBay and Amazon.

I'm actually serious, and yes, it's one of the worst games ever made.

it has been patched to be less crappy. here is the full update info from gamespot: [quote="Gamespot"]After The Fact: Reviews Revisited Update: Patch Posted: Apr 3, 2010 2:08 am CET Stellar Stone put out a patch for Big Rigs that is already included in newer copies. With the patch installed your opponent actually moves, there are sound effects, and the broken Nightride track is replaced with a mirror version of the first track that doesn't crash the game. The grammatically questionable but entertaining "You're Winner!" message was also changed to read "You Win!"

it's probably still the worst game ever anyway, i would like to try it for fun.

I honestly wouldn't want to patch the game. Somehow I feel that I'd get much more satisfaction with the phrase "You're Winner !" at the end of each "race."

Though it's probably the worst game that's ever been developed, I still would like to find a copy 1. for the lulz and 2. I suspect it might be a collector's item in the future :P

Yeah dude, I want to actually find a copy... it's rare here, I haven't seen it here in the UK! I want to proudly own it, show off to anyone and call it the most misinterpreted game ever made!

Haha, I remember a friend of mine had a copy. He had the worst taste in games I'd ever seen, and I remember when I asked him how it was, he actually said, "It's pretty good. You drive trucks and race them or something. The graphics suck though, so I don't really play it."

Then I discovered later how bad it really was :P

Don't listen to some of these people. It's probably one of the best if not the absolute best game ever made. Completely life like, great story and tremendous characters and of course big rigs. It's worth hundreds of dollars it's so good.

If you guys notice, marcogamer07 never returned with his thoughts of the game. One can safely say that he died simply because he could not process the sheer awesomeness this game possesses.

Locking this as it's an old thread that got bumped up, but big rigs really is a magical game. I definitely recommend it.
