Causing havoc, mayhem, and destruction is what Demolition Racer: No Exit is all about. Take to the track and race against 15 opponents bent on taking you out of the race, literally. Battle it out in intense "last man standing" demolition derby bowl matches. Go head-on against your opponents in a giant game of chicken. Maniac speeds, crippling collisions, major air, and "Death From Above" kills are the order of business in this latest piece of racing mayhem.
Demolition Racer is for one or two players with a split screen. Go head to head or team up to take out the rest. With five leagues to get through there is plenty to do and two player fun is endless. Graphics and sound are ok if nothing special. The soundtrack is a mix of rock, metal and industrial but you don't really notice. Not original but fun with a friend.

There is a peculiar satisfaction that often follows a chaotic display. No other sport captures that feeling better than demolition derby. The simple act of smashing two big hunks of metal against one another has delighted audiences around the world for years.
Updated December 10th, 2021 by Russ Boswell: Racing games are some of the most high-octane and adrenaline-pumping games available but adding demolition derby elements into the mix creates a true spectacle. For players that love demolition derby games, there are a handful of solid options out there to scratch the itch when it comes to car carnage. To shine a better light on this underappreciated genre and showcase some of the older demolition derby games out there that still hold up exceedingly well in the modern age, the following list has been updated with even more entries.
The premise of Split/Second isn't exactly like a demolition derby but players can consider it akin to demolition racing but with a lot more action. Set within a world where players take place in a reality-TV-style race, gamers will have the option to trigger explosives, traps, and other dastardly things to trip up their opposition as they race through a wide array of levels.
Featuring a great soundtrack, awesome levels, and epic crashes (by 2004 standards), Burnout 3: Takedown stands as one of the best titles to ever grace the franchise, or racing games in general. Players who love the demolition side of things will dig the racing-meets-metal-carnage-style of gameplay.
Luckily for the player, this includes a demolition derby mode. This is complete with health, boosters, and points galore for vicious attacks. The only thing that keeps this game from greatness is a lack of content, but what is there is good enough to satisfy many derby fans. Those interested can also get games from the developer over GamePass.
No series is more synonymous with vehicular carnage more than the game that takes the name directly. Many of the modern conventions for the genre started with Demolition Derby. Dynamic damage physics that affect car handling, how that damage was calculated, and just plain focusing on the demolition over the racing, though there still was racing.
One of the most modern takes on the genre, Destruction Allstars has a distinctive feel to it that is far zanier than other games like it. It adds a whole host of new ideas to make the old, tired demolition derby experience feel brand new.
While Crossout is not exactly a demolition derby game, it does more than enough to fill player's hearts with untold vehicular destruction. The game boasts the ability for players to construct their own mayhem-creating vehicles to conquer foes and face challenges. The level of creativity that the game allows is off the charts.

The British development studio Reflections Interactive began had been working on Destruction Derby for the PlayStation starting around December 1994,[1][2] having been concepted by its co-founder Martin Edmondson and by Michael Troughton - both fans of the real-life demolition derby sport. It was published by Sony Computer Entertainment (SCE)'s Psygnosis branch, which allowed Reflections to receive PlayStation development kits (SDKs) long before that console's release.[3] Edmondson demonstrated the game to SCE CEO Ken Kutaragi who flew over with a team of engineers. Kutaragi was "very enthusiastic", though commented that it was a shame that debris from the cars didn't stay on the track.[4] The game debuted at the May 1995 Electronic Entertainment Expo,[5] and its initial title was variously reported as Demolition Derby and Demolish 'em Derby. Writers for Edge and Next Generation commented that the game could "trounce" Ridge Racer upon the PlayStation's release.[1][5][6]
Destruction Derby is a driving game focusing on demolition derby. There are three main race styles: one that tailored for racing; one that is just wrecking in a derby bowl; and another that is a combination of the two.
The soundtrack consists of electronica and techno music (the main uptempo tracks are from the hardcore and jungle techno subgenres) composed by the duo Tim Swan & Elliot Sumner. This kind of music was highly popular in the UK at the time in the 1990s.
Writing for GamePro, Captain Squideo called Destruction Derby "the most raucous racing experience of the fall". He believed that its "graphics are almost all you could want for a game" of this type, but wrote that "nothing here stands out as graphically spectacular". He complained that the game does not let players customise cars, and he disliked its lack of split-screen multiplayer. He summarised, "Limited options keep Destruction Derby out of the winner's circuit, but this rowdy stock-car racer still generates a stadium full of thrashin' fun."[32] Victor Lucas of The Electric Playground stated that "the beauty of the game" is the strategy involved in making "calculated strikes" against enemy vehicles, and he wrote, "If you go all out and try to make big noise on the track, more than likely you'll be limping to the scrap yard in seconds." He believed that the game's Stock Car racing mode "is no match for the white knuckle inertia of either Wipeout or Ridge Racer", and that the demolition derbies in The Bowl were "most fun to be had" in the game. He praised the game's graphics and physics, and concluded, "Destruction Derby is a winner in every capacity."[19] A reviewer for Next Generation was extremely pleased with the concept of smashing into other cars, saying it taps into a near-universal fantasy. He remarked the single-player mode is indefinably "lacking" but the multiplayer offers unqualified enjoyment.[20] The review from Edge Magazine noted that whilst the game provides good fun, the "central problem" is that the tracks are too "narrow." The reviewer felt that the game should have been given more time to fix this flaw.[12]
This page contains the entire Initial D Soundtrack. The anime makes use of a Eurobeat soundtrack provided by the Japanese label Avex Trax, producers of the Super Eurobeat compilation albums. The New Initial D the Movie trilogy uses a J-Rock soundtrack, also provided by Avex Trax. For a list of all Initial D related albums, see Initial D Albums.
The anime features a majority Eurobeat soundtrack, although it does feature a few other genres in its later stages, as well as several songs by m.o.v.e. Eurobeat is a HI-NRG driven form of Italo-Disco, mostly performed by Italian artists. It was popular in Japan in the 90s and early 2000s, and has become more of a niche genre.
I enjoyed what I played at the time, and was impressed by the exquisite soundtrack, the broad scope of the game design, the incredible translation (it puts most Final Fantasy titles to absolute black burning shame!) and other aspects that set the baseline for what turned out to be a highly enjoyable MMORPG experience. 2ff7e9595c
