This put's whatever it will be on 1 June, Just before E3, so probably an announcement of a sequel, with a demo coming up at E3. I hope it is a sequel :-)

loved the originals(although it was back in the day when I was young and cheated in games), hope it gets done correctly. As much as love Twisted Metal I'm not sure the new one is going to be the same and I have the same fears for Carmageddon.

"IF" they make a new Carmageddon I will be very skeptical. It's not easy to resurrect classic games, and my main concern is that gaming, and people, have evolved. (well some of us lol) It becomes harder and harder to entertain these days. Sometimes I just like to leave nostalgia in it's place. It's better that way.

Wasn't that the way you were supposed to do it? :p
I'm not gonna get my hopes up too much with this one. Been dissapointed too much these days.

A green oldie if you happened to be unfortunate enough to be in one the countries that censored the game
In many countries (including Germany and, for a short time, the UK), the first release of the game was censored. They contained zombies with green blood or robots with black oil instead of people, as running over the non-human figures was considered more acceptable by their respective ratings boards. In the UK, SCi wanted to gain publicity for the game by submitting it to the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) to get an 18 rating, even though this was not necessary as the game contained no video footage. This backfired when the BBFC refused to certify the game unless all blood and gore was removed. After 10 months of appeal, the BBFC certified the original version.[2]
In some countries, the game was banned completely, including Brazil.[3] In Portugal and Australia the game was passed completely uncut with an +18 and MA15+ rating, respectively.[4]

Found a trailer from 2009, looks like carmageddon, they claim its carmageddon. Frankly doesn't look good, but that was 2 years ago. Hoping for the best.

I just watched it now, it not what it say is is, look like destruction derby hits twisted metal and a touch of need for speed. I dont know my previous comment seems to be voided.

Carmageddon was one of my favourite pc games from my younger days, totally amped if they are planning on developing a new one, i just hope it'll turn out to be an awesome game and they don't ruin my memory of it :(

Commander keen would be epic, lol... But i am afraid it will become a first person shooter...
Runs to see if keen will work on Win 7

What was the point of the original game?
If you mean what was it all about, it was basically a game where you race around the city, and there's a timer that counts down (when it gets to 0, you lose straight away), but you get extra time for killing pedestrians, damaging the other cars in the race, flipping your car and landing on your wheels (cunning stunt bonus!), and that sort of thing. You could win by beating the other cars, destroying all the other cars, or killing all the pedestrians.
You'd also get cool powerups like the aforesaid pedestrian electro-bastard ray that would electrocute any pedestrians you come near.
Some of the sort of bonus's you get:
_x combo bonus!: Hit more than one pedestrian with the car or a power-up in quick succession.
Bonus for artistic impression: Hit a pedestrian creatively, for example landing on one after a jump.
Extra style bonus!: Kill a pedestrian using the side or rear of the car.
Piledriver bonus!: Crush a pedestrian between the car and a solid object (such as a wall or lamppost).
Splatter bonus!: Hit a pedestrian in a way that it splits severely. This can be achieved by smacking it with good speed.
"Nice shot, sir": Hit a pedestrian with a movable object that is not the player's car (such as a traffic light).
In short, it's about carnage! And it was awesome

Wow. I remember the first one. I also remember seeing that this was banned in a few countries (or just Australia, like 90% of all games lol).
Would love to see how this one pans out. Nothing like a bit of carnage, I always say.

I have been waiting forever for a remake of this (almost as long as Duke).
I think it will be a hit given gamez like (Split/second & Blur) being so good.
It'll be a multiplayer cracker
Peace "B"
