The games developers Reflections, had previously released games such as Shadow of the Beast and (the brilliantly named) Awesome, yet this was their first venture into the racing game genre. It later saw a remake on the Nintendo 64, which is generally considered to be a superior edition, although it did have the predictably dull title of Destruction Derby 64. The title also saw releases on the less popular Sega Saturn and MS-DOS. Released in the early days of the original Sony Playstations reign, Destruction Derby introduced players to a different way of racing, a more destructive and anarchic competition that had not previously been utilised in the brave new land of 3D. Before the likes of Burnout, and over a decade since classics such as Spy Hunter, came the absolute jewel that is Destruction Derby. The racing game has come a long way since the mid-nineties, with current titles such as Gran Turismo 5 and Forza 4 boasting almost photorealistic graphics, near perfect handling physics and extensive online play.
