Eight years after V3, Micro Machines come back to the PC for more crazy, fast, unforgiving arcade racing. In addition to the power-ups and weapons, extensive car collection and multiplayer modes, V4 also features an optional "dynamic" (pursuit) camera besides the old-school, non-rotating top-down view, and an all-new track editor.
Crazy Machines 2 is a contraption builder/puzzle game very similar to good ol' DOS-based The Incredible Machine (1992), although with gorgeous 3D graphics and a sophisticated physics model.
