I had a >Blast< with this game. I actually didn't play it until... maybe 3 years ago. But it was so addicting, I ended up getting all platinum medals. ...twice.
This is hilarious. Same here. As a kid I always concocted a whole bunch of reasons. Old retired repurposed war machine damaged in combat, arm cannon so powerful that it blew up, etc. etc. Now that I know, I am hugely satisfied for some reason.
I've always thought this game needed revisiting on modern hardware. Especially with games like Red Faction Guerilla showing off the environment destruction capabilities we had 8 years ago. Blast Corps 2 on the 20th anniversary, come on guys!
I got the game fairly late. I believe that I already owned a Gamecube when I finally found the game and I had the money and the courage to buy it. I wasn't that keen on the idea of a nuclear vehicle that could destroy the world so I avoided the game for the longest time. I am actually glad I did, because when I was finally mature enough to enjoy the game I LOVED it. The gameplay, the atmosphere and the music this game is brillant
Honestly as a kid I didn't even pay attention to the story, so I didn't know what the wierd red truck was. I was just enjoying the destruction, driving, and the vehicles, especially the whacky ones like the robots and jet buggy. I'm glad you got to enjoy this hidden gem of the N64 era.

Stupid is right concerning the rumble pak. I turn off the rumble feature whenever possible to this day. Really annoying and eats up battery life in wireless controllers.
I never understood that game. Never made it out of the 1st level. In the 90s games were not in Spanish, weird enough other games were also in English but were easy to understand and complete even tough I knew practically no English at all. This game was rented like twice and I considered boring and pointless back in the day.
And that kids is how Rare pioneered 3D destructable environments in video games
You have to destroy everything, or else the nuke destroys everything.. Wait..

ALL THESE YEARS IVE WANTED TO KNOW WHY THUNDERFIST HAD 1 ARM AND NOW I FINALLY KNOW. I CAN DIE HAPPY NOW

It's like everything is alright in the world now
lmfao! damn we ran out of polygons for this model it wont fit now.... meh just delete one arm hahahaha that is classic
The first n64 game I had played and owned. Brilliant game
The carrier truck was so iconic, there's a mod for it on Cities Skylines, and it's great!
It's playable on Rare Replay for those not in the know. A true classic

Insanely addictive game play. "Outa-My WAY"!!
makes me want to play rocket robot on wheels with that music at the end there
Great classic game....i just bought one for me today for my n64 lol!
The Backlash truck would be more lovable if it was faster
I just think the game does a poor job explaining how the controls for the Backlash function. I like the idea of it aside form that.
Right.. I need a remake with all those cut vehicles. And yes the dick cabin one also
Imagine a remaster of this game ;3; I have it on my N64, but I ran into a non-controller or TV issue
Rare is the best home clearly .
Unfortunately the license is now lost to MS D': goodby my love.
It like you mix transformers mix with rampage and get this good gem.
Blast corps is hype

I still have the cartridge lol
What happened to ricky berwick? I tried googling him but i only get the youtube personally
Richard Berwick was his name on Blast Corps, Ricky is kind of a nick name of that I guess.
Happy stalking!!!

What will it take to get a Blast Corps 2 for Xbox One? Will it take my first born!?
Thrillaforilla I don't see modern "Rare" doing it. Playtonic is a better bet.
Playtonic's knockoff of Banjo is Yooka Laylee.
Would a Blast Corps knockoff be Destruction Inc. ?
