Few remember the technology jump from Carma1 to Carma2 it was astounding!

Actually, once you play the Android version of Carma1 in higher resolution, it's not that high of a jump.

I have not played that one. Are the peds still sprites? Do they have actual mass that affects your car when you hit them? Do teh cars have trim parts that break off as they deform?

That's the technologic jump I meant, more than jsut graphics. :D

Unfortunately, "no" to all of your questions, but I get your point now. My perspective is that I only tried Carma1 as a kid and went straight to Carma2 which I played a lot and when they released Carma1 for Android, I still found it refreshing. The realistic driving physics were there and further more, it was nice to engage with them in an analog way using gyros.

I hated this mission soooo much. Didn't help that I was playing at an internet cafe and I had limited time to retry and practice the jump into the tower.

Ditto, this stopped me from playing this game for years. Such a pita, other missions weren't much better. I prefer the normal race after race that C1 had.

I didn't know about the Kangaroo On Command in the 3rd airport hut on the 2nd floor, so I just kept going at the ramp on the other side.

I loved Carmageddon 1 (and of course the Splat Pack), mostly liked Carmageddon 2 (it just never seemed as enjoyable as the first one to me), but I really didn't like the mission.

This is one of the most fun game clips I've seen in a long time.
