Road Rash 2?

Eh.

There was this game also, for the PC and Sega Genesis, based on the Road
Rash engine, where you were rollerskating instead and you could kick/punch
your opponents.  It was pretty nice for the time, you needed basically to
attach yourself to the rear bumpers of cars.

Not my auction, just sticking it in here in case someone wants to read
the description and see the box pic.

Some games, I just don't miss.

Yep. It is unlockable, though. But I don't know when one can unlock it.

The driving model that prohibits me from actually driving the car in corners
is so unmotivating that I think one day of the game was enough for me. I'm
happy that I bought it, though. Flatout is a game that one can enjoy in tiny
chunks, and the damage modeling&nitro system sure is fun, untill you
actually do need to try to race the car. And because it is Finnish :)
