          I tried it and thought “what is this basic shit?”

          10 minutes later and I’m at 60% and grinding towards 61%. Highly addictive but in a good way

        Geometry Wars was the one that was playable on the arcade machine, in the garage area, in Project Gotham Racing 2 on the OG Xbox. Got a proper release and sequels after that. I was a PGR addict as a kid. Awesome soundtracks, online play, and my first racer that wasn’t arcade-like or combat oriented (Road Rash, Twisted Metal, etc).

            When they added locations with local radio stations in PGR2, I thought it was coolest thing ever. Growing up in the DMV, “Elliot in the Morning” on DC101 was (still is) the big morning talk radio show. Hearing Elliot introduce tracks by Bif Naked, Trust Co., and such while racing past local monuments was wild.

            I wonder what sort of nightmare it had to be for a game studio to get all the necessary rights. It was after Clear Channel (iHeartRadio) acquired a ton of stations in the US so DC101, Hot 99.5, etc were probably negotiated through a single point of contact. The international stations were mostly independent if I can remember right.
