Video Games

Along with Wingnuts 2, I have been playing another Mac exclusive title, Redline. I don’t own many racing games. I used to enjoy quite a few coin-op racing games back in the golden days of video arcades. However, I am certainly not a hardcore racing sim aficionado. I prefer a less realistic arcade racing experience. Thankfully, Redline has several modes available: simulation, arcade, turbo arcade, and strict. In addition to standard races, it also supports time trials and challenges.

After driving several races with a BMC Mini, I turned my attention to the challenges. Completing challenges is the way to unlock additional vehicles. So far, I have completed eight of out twelve challenges. This unlocked the following cars: DeLorean, Chevy Corvette, VW Golf, Dodge Charger, Audi TT, Dodge Viper, Lamborghini Diablo, and Porsche 959. I still have to complete the Downhill Corners, City Corners, Offroad Corners, and Racing Trial challenges.
