Two years after a surprise debut at The Game Awards, Milestone's anime-inspired reenvisioning of Screamer is here, and the boys each feel some different type of way about it. A narrative-heavy arcade racer oozing ambition with a cohesive art style and unique gameplay, it's the kind of game we at Time Extend always love to support, even if its story is at times nonsensical, and even if it carries a hard learning curve. Will it eventually go down as a classic, or burn up like a shooting star?

Somehow, Genki's Multi Racing Championship has wound up on Time Extend's Mount Rushmore of racing games, and the boys try to once and for all unpack whether or not it's actually a good game. What follows is a random discussion of N64 racers via the Analogue 3D before multiple gaming-related topics that have nothing at all to do with virtually driving cars. We weren't planning for this to be the return of the Free Practice episodes of old, but that's pretty much what happened.

If the hosts of Time Extend Revo could design their own racing games, what would they dream up? This is precisely the question asked and answered in this latest special from the mind of Brendan Rorrison, as the boys pitch projects in a round-robin format, drawing upon games of all genres to sell their ideas. From cross-country rallies to good old-fashioned touring car racing and cars that grind, the results are all over the map, with a few surprising similarities.

Here's a link to the spreadsheet that lists out all the components of each game concept. (Beware, obvious spoilers if you haven't listened yet!)
