Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing (PC) - Angry Video Game Nerd (AVGN) 

I remember asking my dad if he'd buy this for me during a trip to Walmart. Thanks dad. For saying no.

Today I learned that in Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing, the maximum speed that a truck going in reverse can attain is 12.3 Undecillion miles per hour. That's 10^36 MPH, or 18.3 Octillion times the speed of light. At a certain point, the distance traveled as noted by the odometer changes to 1.$ and upon reaching 12.3 Undecillion MPH, the speed also changes to 1.$ and all checkpoints turn green, instantly winning the race. Assuming the observable universe as a sphere with diameter of 92 billion lightyears, that means that this truck travelling at maximum speed could traverse the diameter of the observable universe in under 160 picoseconds. At that point, the kinetic energy contained within the truck would be equivalent to the energy released by a quasar if compressed over one hundred Nonillion years (10^32 years) of uniform production. That means that if you were hit by this truck, it would be like every atom in your body being shot with an individual supermassive black hole cannon fourteen thousand times over (fuzzy calculations there due to probable failure to transmit 100% of the energy to your body, but I have an unknown number of orders in leeway due to calculating energy by the fucking year). I think I have a new favorite godkiller scenario. Hell, at this point I think that this truck is my new favorite superhero. Think about it: in the canon of Big Rigs, the truck (who I will from now on refer to as an anthropomorphous vehicle-themed superhero named Big Rig) has feats rivaling top-tier superheroes: - phasing through literally any obstacle, no matter the density or size. Nothing physical can harm him. - extreme kinetic manipulation, retaining speed no matter how quickly he alters direction, which is instantly. - able to travel so fast that he ascends to godhood and becomes the entire universe, being everywhere and nowhere at the same time. - able to easily withstand the forces of travel at speeds many -illions of times the speed of light and the accretion of the mass of many -illions of times the mass of supermassive black holes - if he were to hit something, he would likely explode the entire universe out of existence I am now officially in the Big Rig fandom. I want to read a Big Rig comic series. I would go out and buy those fucking comics. Thank you based Big Rig.

Fun fact: the fastest speed you can obtain in reverse in this game is 10^36 miles per hour, or 18.3 octillion times the speed of light.

Fun Fact - If you drive in reverse long enough you just auto win the race because your truck is going SO FAST that you exist on every point of the map simultaneously!

"Usain bolt is the fastest" "Sonic the hedgehog is the fastest" "The flash is the fastest" Big rigs:

The game is literally “let’s make some 3D models and then we’re done.”

I'm glad Alex Burton is credited as "Sound". Not the sound designer or sound engineer, no, he is responsible for the sound. The only sound in the game. It's all him.

Even in the best Triple A Open World Videogames you will reach a point where you can't get further. But this... you can literally drive to infinity. Big Rigs is the only REAL Open World videogame to date.

"Alright, lets go in reverse." Famous last words

"You'll be hauling loads and trying to stay one step ahead of the law." Technically, they weren't lying; when they said 'the law', they meant 'the laws of physics'.

How is this episode two years away from being a decade old? This episode still feels somewhat recent. It's insane.

"You can't release something that's not finished!" Literally every AAA game company after 2020: *"Watch me."*

Some people think this is the worst game ever made. Some think it’s one of the funniest. But deep inside, we’re all winner.

Basically this game's code: else if end

AVGN, the only series on YT where you see an episode from eight years ago and say “Ah, one of the more recent ones”.

"You can't release a game that's not finished!" Oh boy, if only 2014 nerd could see us now

Rated E for everyone? No, it should be rated N for Nobody.

Big Rigs saved my life. There was a time where I thought there was no point to going on. I was such a loser. I would have ended it all. But then one day, I found this game. I started playing. When that "You're winner" screen came up, it made me stop and think... "I'm winner? How can that be?" It completely turned my self image around. I wasn't a loser... I was winner! This game gave me the self-esteem to keep going, and now years after I played it, I still have fond memories. Without Big Rigs, I would not be around today. I would gladly pay $90 for this game. To me, it's worth much more than that. To me, it is priceless.

The one and only game that prioritizes true player freedom 10/10

the fastest speed is 12.3 undecillion before the game just gives you the win by default. Note that this makes these trucks the fastest thing in all of media even faster than sonic or the flash

"Why does the truck go faster in reverse" Because games can have speed limits, but going in reverse makes your speed negative, and the developer forgot to make a negative speed limit.

I like how James is trying to get mad at the game but it’s so bad that he can’t stop laughing

If you think about it, the camera holding up above the bridge while breaking the lock it has onto your truck as it goes under the bridge is probably the most impressive feature this game has to offer

The fact that he broke character and couldn't stop laughing at the win screen gets me every time

10:55 "Trying to stay one step ahead of the law.... OF PHYSICS"

" You'll be hauling loads and trying to stay one step ahead of the law" *Yea, the physic laws*

"You can't release something that's not finished!" Cyberpunk 2077 devs: *I'm gonna pretend I didn't see that.*

Version 1: "YOUR WIN !" Version 2: "YOU'RE WINNER !" Version 3: "YOU'RE A WINNER!"

"You're winner" James.exe has stopped working

"You can't release something that isn't finished."~ AVGN "Hold my beer." ~ EA

As a programmer myself, the reason it’s faster in reverse is most likely because the programmers implemented a positive speed cap… But not a negative one.

AVGN: "Have you ever heard of a video game where you can't lose?!" Action 52 Tanks: *Am I a joke to you?*

"What were they thinking?" *They weren't thinking.*

you'll be hauling loads and trying to stay ahead of the law ....of physics

The fact that this game managed to make him break character is just amazing. This is totally one of the funniest videos I've ever watched

The Nerd’s unabashed joy over how hilariously awful this is will always be funny

According to Wikipedia, the truck moves so fast when in reverse it moves faster than light and instantly win the race because the truck is everywhere at the same time.

“You can’t release something, this unfinished!” Ubisoft: That’s where you’re wrong kiddo

Game Mill is somehow still in operation to this day.

Nerd: you can’t release something that’s not finished Modern AAA publishers: allow us to introduce ourselves

12:44 "somebody from the ESRB looked at this game and said "YOU'RE WINNER! 🏆""

The incoherent film *The Room* and *Big Rigs* were released in the same year, 2003. I heard that if you watch The Room and play Big Rigs at the same time the secrets to existence will be unlocked to you, the only problem is that you won't be able to tell anyone after due to the extensive brain damage. You've been warned.

"it just happen that the whole game is the glicth" Cyberpunk 2077: I think you got the wrong guy

14:49 him looking upwards was a brilliant touch 😂

It's impossible to get angry at this game... you just feel sorry for it.

"You can't release a game that's not finished!" Bethesda: "Hold my beer"

Finally! The glitch gremlin is a playable character in a video game, he’s inside the truck

The truck in reverse be like: "I'm speed"

There ought to be a Big Rigs MMO. Same exact game, just with multiple players driving around trucks. Mayhem. Physics Fingering. Accelerating backwards races. Imagine a map with over a hundred trucks everywhere.

So can we talk for a second about the fact that this is a boundless world? And reverse driving actually gives you the ability to traverse it? You know what's crazy, there's another video about this game where they see the limits of speed they can go. When they crossed a certain threshold, the game ended because the RIG moved so fast that it was everywhere in the universe at once and crossed the finish line. In all honesty, scientist could craft theories and do experiments using this 'engine'.

"You can't release something that's not finished!" *That aged well.*

Dear goodness I am still surprise GameMill still publishing games after all these years. And looks like they never learn their lesson after releasing Skull Island Rise of Kong!

"Its my way or the highway, and the highway ain't got shit."

This will forever be the funniest episode of AVGN, the pure disbelief on nerds face kills me every time

Ah yes, Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing. Prequel story to 2001: A Space Odyssey.

For the who don't know the top speed in reverse is 12.3 undecillion MPH. Which is 12.3*10^36 MPH, and also exponentially smokes the speed of light. You're winner.

OH god. They forgot to put a maximum speed on reverse.

The finale of Kirby and the Forgotten Land brought me here.

For me, this is the funniest thing I have ever seen on the internet. It has made me cry laughing many times.

ESRB inspector = "wow this is the most inexcusably unfinished game I've ever played, but hey no bad or suggestive language so E"

"The game was so bad, they programmed a way to escape it" : will always be my favorite AVGN quote.

The fact that most of the money went to hiring someone to make the Box Art is astounding.

If this game came out today, people would accuse the creators of using A.I during development

Flash isn't the fastest man alive, the driver of this truck is. This truck is faster than fucking flash, makes him look like a slow ass compared to this truck. The truck is so fast (12.3 undecillion mph) that not only could you go across the universe in half a second, all matter would be destroyed as a consequence at this speed. This truck is so fast, eventually the game gives up and let's you win, almost as if it's saying "Fine fine you win please stop you're going too fucking fast" The truck is so fast, chin from hong kong 97 worships it.

His reaction to "You're Winner" will forever be the funniest thing in AVGN history to me.

A friend of mine told me this video turned 10 years old yesterday and I didn't believe him... I'm starting to feel old.

8 years later and still my favorite episode

that sales pitch at the end was the greatest thing ever! "engines equipped with quantum phasing molecular mechanics to pass through solid objects so it's not to interfere with the racing experience! rear spinning tires with warp drive velocity for interdimensional exploring! leave the game behind and exceed the boundaries of existence!" i'm sold!

Holy fuck that commercial was awesome XD

Imagine going to the backrooms and finding a big rigs truck that went too fast in reverse

11:50 "You can't release something that's not finished" Bethesda: *Furiously sweating*

“Alright, lets go in reverse...” “Ludicrous speed go!” - Lord Helmet

"You can't realease a game that is not finished!" Meanwhile, in 2018...

The "You're Winner !" part broke me 🤣

The truck going so fast in reverse that the engine starts to sound like a blood-curdling human scream cannot be a coincidence. This game is demonic.

"It's as if the water is trying to exist, but can't."

Big Rigs, one of the worst games of all time. AVGN: "This is awesome."

10 years later this is still the best episode. BIG MOTHA F%CKING RIIIIGS!

7:44 I think this is the most genuine reaction we've ever seen from The Nerd. Absolute disbelief.

"You can't release something that's not finished" *Laughs in EA*

I think the Glitch Gremlin is driving the truck.

"We're not gonna go too far back into the past, only to 2003." 20 years ago. Yowza

This is such a troll game. I love it.

This makes sonic 06 look functional

The fact that there is a 'Sound Guy' in the credits speaks for itself. what a busy man he would have been during production! You're winner

“You can’t release something that’s unfinished” Unfortunately, the gaming industry didn’t listen to his pleas

Going in reverse is the greatest feature in gaming history

"The truck's fucking the ground!"

-What are you doing? -go in reverse -"That's impossible" -"No, it's necesary"

I never thought I would ever hear the sentence: "The trucks f*cking the ground"

13:21 Was absolutely hilarious😂😂😂

Oh shit, this I gotta see

This is Reverse Flash's truck.

Imagine being an alien and you see a truck going reverse outside of your spaceship.

"You can't release something... that's NOT FINISHED!" Developers/Publishers in 2022: "Want to bet?"

imagine going to work at 8 am and seeing cars like this in reverse going ape shit

"You can't release a game that's not finished!" *Electronic Arts, Ubisoft, and Epic Games are typing*

Hearing someone scared screaming WEVE GONE TO PLAD just made my day

"You can't release a game that's unfinished!" I think every AAA studio took this as a challenge.

This looks like something done at a programming class in school and never got finished because the teacher only gave you one class and the next day you had to move on to something else.
