ESPN Extreme Games
A LEGAL WAY TO PUNCH CYCLISTS
» PLAYSTATION » 1995 » SONY INTERACTIVE STUDIOS AMERICA When ESPN first held the Extreme Games event in 1995, the likes of Tony Hawk, Mat Hoffman and Dave Mirra were among the medal winners – names that would later pop up on the covers of PlayStation games. You know what their extreme sports games are like, so it’s easy to assume that a licensed game based on that event would play similarly, maybe in a California Games multi-sport style. You’d be wrong, though. ESPN Extreme Games is a delightfully mid-Nineties racing game with attitude, in the tradition of games like Skitchin’ and Road Rash.
