Item Description

San Francisco Rush is a racing game about leaving the ground. Atari Games' 1996 arcade hit sent cars flying off hilltops, broken freeways and rooftops at speeds no city street could survive, and the Nintendo 64 version, brought home by Midway in late 1997, keeps those absurd jumps front and center. GamePro put it best: the death-defying leaps will make you leave your stomach in San Francisco.

The real addiction is in the hidden routes. The tracks are threaded with secret paths, and figuring out which ramp leads to a shortcut and which one leads to a fiery wreck is half the game. Crash hard or land on your roof and the car explodes in spectacular fashion before dropping you back onto the course, which only encourages you to keep testing just how far a jump can go. Critics were nearly unanimous that the shortcuts and jumps were the star of the show.

The N64 version is more than a straight conversion. The arcade original had three tracks; the port expands that to six, plus hidden extras, and every course can be run in reverse or mirrored. Keys hidden around the tracks unlock secret cars, a Circuit Mode gives you a season-style series of races, and Death Race mode ends your run with a single crash while the wrecks pile up on the course. Split-screen racing brings a friend along for the ride.

IGN scored it an 8.9 and Next Generation called it just short of brilliant, though the controls and soundtrack drew criticism. More important, this is where the Rush series began, before Rush 2 and San Francisco Rush 2049 carried the formula forward on the same console. If you love racers that reward exploration as much as a clean line, the first Rush is the place to learn its hills, its hidden tunnels and the feeling of hanging in the air above them.
