Big Rigs, the infamous truck racing game, is coming to Steam this year

  This feels like the Morbius re-release. Big Rigs is (in)famous for being one of the worst/most broken games ever made, who in their right mind would pay for it?

    Big Rigs is literally the only video game in existence I can think of that has the same “B movie” qualia about it. It’s so bad, it’s actually funny to play because of just how insanely bad and broken it is. I mean, what other game can you accelerate to infinity and beyond by simply driving backwards?

      I don’t think I agree. I feel like the game is so short and incomplete that you can see everything it has to offer by playing it for 10 minutes - or watching a YT gameplay.

      The game has one map, no collisions, no AI. I think I remember it having different playable “rigs” but they are mechanically the same, so there’s no point.

      At least with a game like Oblivion you could play it for 20 years and still find new ones. Big Rigs doesn’t have near the same “energy”.

  I’m surprised to find it’s not already on Steam.

  Is this the same Big Rigs from Yogscast’s Truckin’ Tuesdays fame?

    Awe. I would have ironically played that.

      Scroll down a few posts. As far as we can tell, this is legit.
