Same! It was pretty much the reason I joined Roblox when I saw the ad for it! I was like "Lego Racers but you don't only have to build cars? Sign me up!"
It's amazing how many people are commenting that this was their childhood as well. I miss when games were this simple, yet still stand out as some of the best experiences of our lives.
the nostalgia is strong, but looking back this game is actually super solid. Where else can you build your own car and then race it? When I look back at some other games from my childhood i can tell they weren't nearly this good
Bro the other day i was thinking about this game from my childhood. It came to mind that i have never been a mario kart guy and this was my alternative.
Crash team racing is way better with its powersliding system. This one doesn't have anything else than "go for green brick and use tunnel" there is nothing but a boring straight forward driving.
@@rebelfleettrooper9881 Same here, although Gypsy Moth was always a bitch to defeat, but I beat her in the end. Even so, I technically think she should've been the final boss tbh instead of Rocket Racer since he was always so piss easy to defeat, especially since there's so many white and green bricks littered throughout Rocket Racer Run, meaning you always get plenty of chances to use the Doctor Who feature (I.e. time vortex), and plus there's obviously the hidden vortex behind the door.
@Ozzy Beard Spaghetti yeah I mean its harder when you're 7 years old. I remember coming home from school and booting up the old windows 98 in my parent's room and watching that Gypsy Moth challenge video a lot of times, I got stuck on her for a while. Great times
I don't think it's possible to beat him by just conventional racing. You have to collect the green go-fast powerups, and have them maxed by collecting the white bricks which allows you to warp ahead. Keep doing that and it's easy.
honestly reading all these comments knowing all these people felt what you felt when you played this game , fucking great man , i almost feel all sensible and real people played it lmao, and they took the time to remember it sometime . GREAT GAME 10/10 we are all getting older and wish we could get the enjoyment we got out of this game in life now ! can gaming bring true happiness ? great community people drunk commenting right now lol . If someone could give me a link i could either download or buy this in Canada and play it would be much appreciated !
I feel so nostaligic right now, i played this when i was little child and it brings so many memories, not only in-game but in context of my childhood in general, so awesome what one “stupid” game can do :))
This game was my childhood man, imo the older lego sets were better than the ones we have today maybe it's just nostalgia but they did seem a lot more original and awesome. Damn I miss the 90's, the days where I could just play with my lego's all day and not have a care in the world
me too, I was stuck on the first level a lot and then one day I beat that level and when on beating all the levels and for the most part, beating the game.
I remember as a kid I had a personal goal of making sure the governor Lego guy would always come in second place in the standings with me in first place.Which meant sabotaging the race for whoever the frontrunner was... Goodtimes. goodtimes
When I go back and play this game I always try and make it so Governor or one of the other non-hosting drivers wins the championship, since beating the game myself is so easy now
@@xAxeI The voices for the AI controlled versions of the characters are actually all mixed up and wrong. The player controlled versions actually use the correct voices.
I recently heard an essay about movies, that if you feel that something happens outside of that you see in the movie, then it has great world building. I don't know how, but Lego Racers has always given me that feeling, even now 20 years later.
i was addict to this game when i was little XD, my favorite car and character is design Johnny thunder and Barron von baron, also the music from this game also catchy and memorable
I miss this game sooo much. Was one of my favourites as a kid. I remember my heart racing when getting closer to the finish line and trying to keep or fight for rank 1
I was so young playing this game that every single frame from the intro is like a movie to me, so integral to my life. Honestly kind of crazy how much I love this game. It doesn't feel like im looking at legos, it feels like real life.
***** voice [vois] noun 1. the *sound* or sounds uttered through the mouth of living creatures, especially of human beings in speaking, *shouting*, singing, etc. So...your point was?
@@stareye_1062 Sorry, i made mistake. I meant " I played this game every day when I was like 12 or 13 yo". Now I'm 20, but I still play from time to time, and still like it.
This game! It was the only racing video game I played before discovering Mario Kart. Every music composition, every sound, every voice... This brings many memories from many years ago. I remember the times when I used to be first place in a race and not. It has possibly been 13 years.
I played a lot of kart racing games as a kid, but this really was something different. It was so fast paced didn't make you feel frustrated and it was just such a fun time.
This is the absolute first main memory I have from my childhood, I played this game when I was 4, and I loved it. I remember the music, the maps, and the characters (especially the pirate). I'm glad the memory of this game stayed with me! 😊
That intro man... i used to play this with gaspedals and steeringwheel. I think i came in last every single race i ever did but i just liked driving around.
Looking at the first 3 seconds of this game is like receiving a surprise punch tothe stomach. I wasn't ready for this and now I wanna cry. I used to love this game so much as a little kid. Like, so SO much.
I noticed that in each Circuit, each of the bosses swaps voices to their mirror counterparts. If this doesn't make sense to you, here: Captain Redbeard = Johnny Thunder King Kahuta = Baron Von Barron Basil the Batlord = Gypsy Moth Johnny Thunder = Captain Redbeard Baron Von Barron = King Kahuta Gypsy Moth = Basil the Batlord Tip: Johnny Thunder, Baron Von Barron and Gypsy Moth are pretty much Captain Redbeard, King Kahuta and Basil the Batlord all over again, but tougher or weaker and the tracks are MIRRORED and in REVERSE order.
Installed this and Lego Racers 2 along with Polaris Snocross on my PC. Now on the new Windows it won't let me run these games anymore. Finally time to put the nostalgia away, but these games by far provided so much more fun than any game nowadays. Thanks for the upload
would be amazing if they made a remake of this this is really awesome game for its time and personally for me it's one of the best racing games i've ever played as a kid
1. If I went for three whites, all you would ever see me do is warp. It makes the game really boring to watch. 2. I used green plenty of times throughout this video. I just wanted to mix it up.
just did a full playthrough of this yesterday. honestly it's still insanely good. the last 2 circuits are honestly pretty challenging. took me a handful of tries to ace em.
1. For the last time, I addressed the warp thing in the description. 2. I picked them up a lot in the second circuit because I like to tease King Kahuka.
Hands down, Pirate Skull Pass and Ice Planet Pathway are the HARDEST time trials. I noticed you cut it so close at 1:33:55 that Veronica actually disappeared at the end of the race, but you still won.
I for one appreciated that you used the warp sparingly. Not only would abusing it make the gameplay incredibly boring, but it feels a lot closer to how I played as a kid. Twelve years on CZcams and this video is still drawing people in!
This game will be lost to time, sadly. This game was SO good, especially for its day. As a kid, each level offered such a unique adventure, with the different classic lego themes, with different secrets to explore, different random gems to find. The car creator tool was incredible.. I spent hours and hours on this. Graphics were great for the time too.
OMG WINDOWS XP NOSTALGIA OMFG WHY DID WE GET RID OF ITTTT WHYYYYY WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I GOT RID OF THE GAME ASWELL I LOVED THIS GAME WHEN I WAS LIKE 6
Господи спустя столько лет я все таки смог найти эту игру! Мне было в районе 5-6 лет когда папа посадил меня за компьютер и установил эти гонки, это была моя первая компьютерная игра! Слёзы наворачиваются…
This game just suddenly appeared in my mind and I needed to make sure it wasn't just a fever dream from my childhood

The same to me also man.. and i have 21 but i remember clearly how good was this game

This is the only karting game i would consider to be better than mario kart
Bro the other day i was thinking about this game from my childhood. It came to mind that i have never been a mario kart guy and this was my alternative.
Diddy Kong Racing was great too
true
What about Dethkarz?! That was lit as fuck!
Crash team racing is way better with its powersliding system. This one doesn't have anything else than "go for green brick and use tunnel" there is nothing but a boring straight forward driving.
That intro is so gold. Lots of little details in the race, the drivers, the podium.
it really is incredible.
Soo Truee.
This game was so much fun! Pretty hard too honestly
When I first played it I didn't have a chance. Went back to it a few years later and it was a blast.
I’m 30 years old now….i remember all of this…the sounds…the graphics..my goddddd what memories
Im 34 and same

Nostalgic childhood :) :D
The Nostalgia is real
I remember being annoyed with the bat guy because “he was fast”
When I was a child, I asked my parents to have a party inspired on Basil 😹 I got a finding nemo instead
When I was a kid I was so pissed at Rocket Racer during the final race because it's so damn difficult.
I beat him no biggie a lot of times.

Liam Gurney i agree
pirate the game online

I used to play this game all the time. Looking back on it, it's so much different than I remembered! Wow.
Same! Lol
me too, I was stuck on the first level a lot and then one day I beat that level and when on beating all the levels and for the most part, beating the game.
it's exactly the same for me. pure magic with places in the tracks I want to explore and hear the sounds and see the sights lol
Lego Racers was the first game I ever 100% completed I was so proud of my 6 year old self back in 2006.
I like that the graphics actually looks pretty good, just because it's LEGO
i cant believe i played this more than 15 years ago and still remember most of the shortcuts and abilities
The nostalgia is literally bringing me to tears.

I loved the Governor too. His voice was my favourite. But then if you built his character the voice would be different :(
martin austin ahahah, I did the same. Once I'd beaten circuit a few times I'd set myself challenges like this.

good memory, those were the hardest.
I have to admit that was the worst part of the game
I did it a few times. For heaven's sake, I addressed this in the description!
It has been decades since I even saw this but I still find myself singing the menu theme far too often. Funny how things stick with you.
I love how the first custom racer's name is "Some Guy"!
"Some f-" lol
would be amazing if they made a remake of this
this is really awesome game for its time
and personally for me it's one of the best racing games i've ever played as a kid
They should release the N64 version on the switch
i remember when this was my only game on my Windows XP pc...2009 man
1. If I went for three whites, all you would ever see me do is warp. It makes the game really boring to watch.
2. I used green plenty of times throughout this video. I just wanted to mix it up.
This game holds some of the best nostalgia for me. So many friends came over and time well spent as a kid on this game. Remember it clear as day😭
I was so small when i played this. (never acctually beat the game xD) I was born 2001

My childhood. The nostalgia.
I remember i played more than two weeks to sucess the first race in the second level.
1. For the last time, I addressed the warp thing in the description.
2. I picked them up a lot in the second circuit because I like to tease King Kahuka.
Every time I see this intro and hear main theme I have tears in eyes, such a beautiful memories...
Memories...Are coming
Hands down, Pirate Skull Pass and Ice Planet Pathway are the HARDEST time trials. I noticed you cut it so close at 1:33:55 that Veronica actually disappeared at the end of the race, but you still won.
The Ice Planet was BS with that last part. She did it 100% perfectly and it was very hard to do
I for one appreciated that you used the warp sparingly. Not only would abusing it make the gameplay incredibly boring, but it feels a lot closer to how I played as a kid. Twelve years on CZcams and this video is still drawing people in!
I'm just sitting on my couch. Suddenly remembering a lego racing game. Huuuge nostalgia hit
Also, I usually pick up shields when I'm in the middle of everything so I don't get hit by the million incoming cannonballs.
