Template:Current-GCOTW Re-Volt is a remote control car racing game creating by game developers Acclaim Entertainment in the year 1999. It made appearances on the PC, Nintendo 64, DreamCast and Playstation with a sequel RC Revenge Pro released later.

The game featured 28 stock cars and 14 tracks including a stunt arena for free roaming. Cars come in two varients; electric and glow. As well as this, their driving ability places them into various categories so that they race against other cars of similar capabilities. These categories are: Rookie, Amateur, Advanced, Semi-Pro and Pro. Tracks are also categorised depending on their difficulty to master and win. These categories are: Easy, Medium, Hard and Extreme. Cars and tracks are both unlocked through success in the game's tournament modes.

However it was soon discovered by racers that the game was highly customisable and this led a large and thriving community at several websites across the web. As interest grew, people eventually discovered the ability to match the standard set by Acclaim. New cars and tracks are still being released giving the game a huge lifespan and the community is still seeing new innovations and developments in the game's editability.

Trivia

  • Look closely at some of these RCs. "Toyeca" resembles Toyota is the only RC that can resemble a car company name.
