    Simply stunning graphics, addictive gameplay, and intense plotline folded into one of the best pc games ever made. In my country of Ceylon, there was been petitions to even glorify this stunning game to sainthood. I already worship and make sacrifices to Big Rigs. A bit of goats blood, cinnamon, and dewdrops make it happy.

    This is quite possibly the best game ever made, your like a truck and you have to beat another truck, in which the driver is too scared to drive. You have to out run the cops which are somewear in the game. oh yea one more thing terrorists but a trap on you truck, if you back up you get sucked into a vortex you cant get out of so watch out!

    I absolutely love this game. Where to even begin..... the graphics are stunning and the sound is breath-taking. The gameplay itself? is so fun and realistic, that I feel like I am actually behind the wheel of the truck. The AI in this game is far more advanced than most AI in new-gen games and I feel that the game actually interacts with you as a player. For those of you that have heard I absolutely love this game.

    way ahead of its time, big rigs revolutionized what racing is all about. its is so mesmerizing that even the AI is unable to begin the race because its in awe of the visual backgrounds presented in this game. Please buy this game and hope stellar stone releases a sequel to this amazing off road rampage!

    Purely, one of the single best games to ever be created.

A tear came to my eye the first time I saw "You're winner" across the screen. My parents we're so proud! Oh, and one more thing; watch out for the invisible police! They've set traps around so that you can drive through the map and into an infinate plane. Its shuch a Challenge!… Expand

    This game is the best! You get to drive all around and carry cargo, a man's dream! Seriously though the graphics are incredible and the audio is unbelievable. When you think you've won the race, the superb AI is always there right down to the finish line. It's worth every penny.

    The developers are geniuses. They made just enough of a game so that they couldn't be sued for fraud and made it so bad that all the free publicity would sell millions of copies to people who wanted to play the worst game ever.

    Like the writing of Peter Chimaera, or the art of Tori Sue Heck, Big Rigs is at the pinnacle of video games everywhere. WIth the greatest physics and AI created in history (which was later STOLEN by GTA), Big Rigs will leave you both satisfied and hungry for more as it plunders your mind of all your endorphins. I GUARANTEE IT.

    I have to say, Big Rigs is definetly the best game ever made. The special effects are amazing, the controls make you feel like you drive a real "Big Rig", the music is a masterpiece and the "You're Winner" phrase is hilarious, it's so perfect. I can't understand all the hate, you people probably didn't even play it.

    By far, one of the best games on the market. Still holds its own with the "next-gen" racing games, really, it puts them all to shame in my opinion. The graphics are unbeatable, very realistic. The AI can get quite challenging, you really don't see that anymore. The music score is great, really puts you in the mood of the game.

    The best game EVER. Even though you do need a pretty good computer to play this bad boy it's all worth it with it's good driving physics and those graphics.... WOW.... Even better than Crysis'. But what else really made this game perfect is when it tells you "YOU'RE WINNER" that really cheers me up.

    Simply the best video game of all time, you can combine The Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time with Grand Theft Auto IV and Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare and it won't even come close to what this game is. Big Rigs: Over The Road Racing is truly the best video game to date and will always be.

    Imagine a game that would make "Smokey and the Bandit" look like Gilbert and Sullivan. I know it's difficult to imagine but Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing is so pathetic it makes a sandpaper-and-vinegar enema sound positively delightful. Not that I would know.
