The great soundtrack that comes with the game is also notable, with sounds from Snoop Dogg and Queens of The Stone Age to get you going.

A multiplayer component and amazing race tracks through the urban streets helped to make this one of the top racing games out there!
5. F-Zero GX
The rich graphics, unbeatable frame rate and deep customization really hold this game up to the test of time.

6. Big Red Racing
What makes this game so unique is that it puts fun and ridiculous racing above all else and is also the only racing game to feature the kind of diverse, multi-terrain vehicles in the history of racing games. Big Red Racing is a throwback to the ingenuity that gamers could only wish big game companies still produced. Unfortunately, due to the game’s abandonware, it’s hard to find this game. But if you do, it’ll be massive loads of fun!
7. Fatal Racing
One of the best racing games ever made. Fatal Racing came out during the age of big PC retail boxes. What makes the game so awesome is because it’s sported with unlockable cheats that could radically change the game, like Dead Race Mode, where other NPC racers tried to kill you, or Ice Man, which enabled the tracks to turn into ice. Split-screen co-op and competitive modes made it a blast for local play, and up to 16 players either online or via LAN made it great for LAN-parties. The gameplay was fast and furious and sported 16 tracks plus 8 additional bonus tracks you unlocked while playing the game!
8. Road Rash 3
One of the games that were out during the surge of rebellious 90s video games, this game has the best graphics on the Sega Genesis, even though the frame-rate somewhat suffers compared to the original Road Rash. The game also has awesome melee weapons you can use to subdue and beat the hoot out of opponents on the race track. Badassery is in place!

If you’ve been to the arcade and have never played Daytona, what are you doing with your life?! This golden number has helped shape the concept of competitive multiplayer racing at arcades across the world. A loud, bombastic, explosive racing game with awesome retro music, four-player competitive racing, full pit crews, light damage models and full 3D racing, makes this game one of the best racing titles out there.
10. Mario Kart
A popular franchise worldwide that HAS to be on the list. The games are timeless classics that picking a version to play is almost like asking you if you want to eat the blue pill or the red pill. Each version of Mario Kart has its own quality that Nintendo puts into each outing and there’s no denying that this is one of the best out there, easily worth the time and investment if you can afford to.
