^ was the 1st game i ever played (followed closely by worms, ooh yeah!!).
but i recently i saw destruction derby arena, and so i bought it instantly.
compared to the originals it was completely crap, too arcady = SH1T
anyway
does anyone know of any games that are similar to the original destruction derby?
with the destruction bowl and just general chaotic carnage even in the races?
thx

Yeah, I agree that DD Arena sucked bad. As for replacements, I haven't really played any racing games lately. Flatout 2 maybe?

I played a good destrustion derby style raceing game for Dreamcast years ago, can't remember the name though.

I think I remember Destruction Derby... yeah... that game rocked. Not sure of anything like it. Vigilante 8 (and V8 2nd Offense) are cool car-combat games too though. Not exactly the same gameplay though.

Im not a big Fan of Racing Games at all, but in love with Vehicular Combat games.
One of the best Racing Games I played (Wich arent much) is CrashDay. Dont know if you heard of it, but it was actually quite nice, and had much variety.

If this is what I think, then I will tell you that nothing beats Twisted Metal .
There's also a game I remember called "Road Trip" and I remember a missle which you remote controlled to kill the enemy. Fun .

@sic
i have twisted metal but i think that is too arcady aswell, plus i just want a realistic crash 'n' bash game.
and im glad no-one has suggested burnout as they aren't anywhere near as good as Destruction Derby, though they are good.
but i will look into the other suggestions thx all

I was going to suggest burnout, but then I saw the smash-'em-up part of your post. Burnout is more "crash into them and forget" type of racing.
