I know I remember seeing some people talk about how nice some of the environments in Hitman were, and that they’d just walk around as a tourist from time to time, treating it like a walking simulator/virtual tourism thing instead of the stealth assassination game it is. Curious about other things like that, where you play a game totally differently than it was meant to be played.
In Super Sprint arcade, on the track below, once I get enough lead up on the 3rd or 4th lap, I would enter the red arrow 360 loop and then just keep spinning the steering-wheel left. This makes the car do 2-3 donuts around the loop, until going out of control backwards to explode into the barrier.
Always worth it.
That game is near impossible to control. The fact that you were able to get enough of a lead to do donuts* is just mind-blowing to me.
* - Or as I recently learned, in the Midwest they call this “whipping a shitty” which seems appropriate here.
You do need to back off the go-pedal in sharp corners, and occasionally turn in to a slide to cancel it.
The other thing is, you get about 3 easy to beat races, then the green car switches into crush-mode.
