Ubisoft’s POD — aka Planet of Death — a surreal and hella difficult racing game from the 90s. It came with my parents’ old Pentium MMX computer, and I remember playing it a lot even though I was no good at it at all, haha. And being enamored with the opening cinematic in all of its needless yet awesome go-hard glory, with arguably the most epic excuse plot in video game history up until that point. Truly a game of a bygone era, for better or worse. It’s been ported to modern Windows if you want to check it out.
As a video game music fan, I’d be remiss if I didn’t also recommend everyone to check out its soundtrack, which happens to just be a single epic suite of music in the form of a 14-minute CD track because it’s just that kind of game. And like said game, it’s the kind of thing that could only have been made in the 90s, I think. YouTube is your friend if you want to experience it for yourself!
