MRC on the N64 is one of those racing games that feels like it got overshadowed by the big names, but it’s got some surprisingly solid stuff going for it. Right off the bat, you’re picking from a decent lineup of cars—some handle like bricks, others actually feel responsive, so you’ll probably restart a few times just to test them out. The tracks? They throw everything at you: rain, night driving, even some weirdly satisfying puddles that actually mess with your traction.
It’s not just about speed, either. You’ve gotta manage your fuel and tires, which adds this weirdly tense layer where you’re debating whether to pit or push through. The AI isn’t pushover-level easy either—they’ll shove you into walls if you let them. Not gonna lie, the graphics are very much ‘90s N64, but the sense of speed when you hit a straightaway still holds up. If you’re into racing games that actually make you think a little, this one’s worth a spin.
