Road Rash was one of the first titles conceived by EA after they made the decision to begin developing video games in-house; until that point, EA had previously outsourced video game development to external studios, and were primarily focused on PC games due to the effects of the video game crash of 1983.[10][11][12] In its tentative steps back into the console market, EA focused on genres that were determined to be strategic, namely sports and racing titles. Preliminary development began on an NES title named Mario Andretti Racing, and programmer Dan Geisler was hired by the company at this time.[12] Technical director Carl Mey, who had just been laid off from Epyx following its bankruptcy, was also hired by EA and was given his first major project of creating a "banked road" effect for the game. Mey soon realized that while the NES was capable of road-scaling effects, banking would be beyond the console's ability.[11][13] Producer and designer Randy Breen, who was previously involved with Indianapolis 500: The Simulation, was influenced by the difficulty and tedium of that title to create a racing game with more accessibility and entertainment value.[11] Because Andretti was set to follow a similar formula to Indianapolis 500, Geisler, Breen, May and co-designer Walter Stein began a brainstorming session for a different type of racing game that would not necessarily adhere to realism. After Mey and Geisler rejected QuadRunners as potential racing vehicles due to Andretti's dirt track setting, Breen suggested motorcycles.[12] Breen recounted: "I'd been into motorcycles for a long time, and we quickly realized bikes gave us lots of technical advantages. For instance, we could put more bikes than cars onscreen at once, and the bikers were more visible than car drivers, so they could be more expressive".[10] The game's title originated from Breen reminiscing to the group about riding his own bike on Mulholland Drive to meet with friends and thinking to himself: "Man, if you wiped out here, you'd get some serious road rash". Geisler suggested the title Road Rash on Mulholland Drive, and Breen used the name to pitch the concept to EA. The title was eventually shortened to Road Rash, and development moved from the NES to the recently introduced Sega Genesis, which was powerful enough to generate the desired road effects.[12]

The Amiga release of Road Rash was received positively. Neil Jackson of Amiga Format found the violent gameplay to be "just all-out thrash fun" that would "annoy everyone from the road safety crew to the Mary Whitehouse brigade", but added that the game "sounds like a kazoo [and] looks like a moped on an 8-bit".[26] CU Amiga described the game as an "immensely playable" and "nicely violent" alternative to normal racing games, but noted that the Amiga version runs slower than the Genesis version and "doesn't deliver the feeling of charging down a road at 120mph".[18] Road Rash was the fourth-highest selling Amiga title in the United Kingdom in its debut month,[37] and remained among the top-30 best-sellers for five more months.[38][39][40][41][42]
Trying to get Asterix & Obelix XXL 2 running on Windows 10. Game was released 2005 and would have been compatible with XP or lower. There is a supposed fix that requires you to download a no DVD patch that replaces the GameModule to run the game. However, while the game does run doing this, it crashes as soon as you select play from the menu screen.
The intro video will show a black screen while the sound is playing correctly (whatever screen resolution is set).Using a NoCD patch, all videos but the intro will play correctly. Platinum was close!The race musics are in MIDI format, you need to install and *configure* a midi synth (such as timidity or fluidsynth). See install will not work on recent versions of Wine (maybe due to the dropping of Win9x support). It is reported to also fail on Windows 7 64-bit. However it is enough to copy the 'roadrash' folder from the CD and to add some reg entries:REGEDIT4[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Electronic Arts\RoadRash 95]@="""Path"="X:\\1""CheckDialup"=hex:00"ChatState"=hex:02"MiniDash"=hex:00"OpponentList"=hex:01Set your path to your CD drive (e.g. "D:\\1") or to your game folder (e.g. "C:\\Games\\RoadRash") if you are using a NoCD.
Our 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray has some of the most technologically advanced performance feature available on, well, any car. The Magnetorheological shocks go from super comfy to super stiff and are essentially magic. The Performance Traction Management reduces the risk of catastrophic crashing AND makes you faster around a road course. It's also magic. And then there's the variable exhaust. Not as fancy as the other stuff, but it sure does work.
