I spent hours, HOURS, with that game. Playing it, modding it, taking leisurely drives through it. I saw that screenshot and had instant flashback. Man, I could recognize those trees and that road anywhere.
I played that more than any other driving game and had a racing wheel to go with it. The career mode was just too fun. I really liked how you'd start with all the older Porsches which were slower and easier to deal with and then things would just get progressively harder as you worked through the years and got to the faster cars.
My favorite car was the 1971 911S. At least, I think it was 1971. It was right in the sweet spot where it looked great, was fast but not too fast, and had the best sounding engine of them all.

That game made me fall in love with 944s :). I was no good with the older ones though, those things spun out like crazy. I remember, I think in that same course, just stopping in front of the farm house to see the people sitting on the porch. Good times.
I have a soft spot for NFS:PU. I never made it to the modern cars... I was playing it on one system right before it died, and when I built it's replacement (some time later, funds were low at the time) I also upgraded from Win98 to WinXP I think and it didn't run well after that. But the driving in that game was just so smooth, and fluid, and even the slower/older cars were a joy to race.
I have fond memories of Destruction Derby.
Was that the guess? If so, you're up!
Die Hard 2
Oh, wait that's a train? I wasn't serious but thought I'd take a stab in the dark.
Throw Mama from the Train, the video game.
This better not be another educational game...
YES! Agent USA. Years ago I played just to get a screencap of a train going to Cleveland (for P&C purposes) but the texture on the ground was a real strain on the eyes so I got some flack for that.
Something from Sega, but I can't remember what it is.
Sword of Vermilion! I actually paid to call the help line for that game.
Castlevania Wannabe
Ex-Mutants... So, The X-men wannabe.
They made am ExMutants game? Wooooow
Guess the license was cheap.
Well, it was on the Genesis, and let's face it, there were a lot of games during that time that could fall into the "throw enough shit at the wall and see what sticks" category.
PurEvil gets the nod for Ex Mutants. I bought that one on the cheap.
Uhh... looks a lot like Dune 2 but I know it's not.
Wow, Outpost 2. Haven't seen that one in a while.
Maybe I should sit out the next few rounds

Ding ding ding. You're up.
Oh man my guess was going to be Outpost! I would have been off, but not by much. Outpost was such a great game. Brings back some good memories.
Go ahead d4mo. I got nothing for now.
Thanks Running Man! Here's mine.
Phantasmagoria!
CptDomano, correct! What a game that was. I played it when I was 14 and my parents probably would have been horrified if they knew what was in it.
