You may even tussle with the snitches who landed you in jail along the way too, not to mention scores of cops. The game takes place in what the team calls a 'nightmare vision of the American mid-west', and your rider is a paroled felon who - after eight years in prison - has to work their way back up the ranks of their old biker gang.ДЄlong the way you need to compete in races to win back territory from other gangs, and eventually you'll earn enough kudos to start your own crew, controlling drug distribution and ruling the highway with an iron fist.

You might think that Criterion is the likeliest candidate for the job, but it seems to be tied up in Need for Speed at the moment. There's clearly a lot of love out there for the classic Mega Drive originals, but the publisher isn't biting.
