    It's one of those games that many didn't like, and to general knowledge it is quite buggy at times.

    Nevertheless I enjoyed it very much!

    On the question now.

    On the gamepak's box it doesn't say "Only for N64" as exclusive N64 games do, implying a release for another format perhaps.

    Was there a planned version for the PC? or PSX?

    The same is true with Top Gear Rally, no "only for" sign.

    UPDATE:

    I m very surprised at this image. My gamepak's box does not have the "only for" sign. The depicted is an NTSC US release, whereas mine is a PAL. Can anyone else with a PAL ver. of the game confirm this?or have I struck gold?

    HOWEVER: Factor 5's rogue squadron, that was eventually released for the PC, DID have the "Only For" sign!

    Very confusing:D

    PAL version:

    There were quite a lot of N64 exclusives with no only for sign in PAL. I don't think you've hit the jackpot quite yet. In fact, I think it may have been every/most 3rd party title didn't have it in PAL.

    I think the game was released for the PC, but under a different name.

    Just found some info on it on Wikipedia.

    " This version of Top Gear Rally was also released as a PC title called Boss Rally. "

    I m after it! Although to be honest I d be much happier if I could find Overdrive for the PC. I miss that game, and not having it here with me, plus emulators don't seem to like it at all.
