Hydro Thunder team making spirital sequel

[goh]

"Arcade Heroes is reporting today that the team behind the original Hydro Thunder is developing a spiritual sequel to the Midway arcade classic, set to debut at next week's ATEI show in London.

Arcade game manufacturer Raw Thrills is set to reveal H2Overdrive, a powerboat racing game developed by the original Hydro Thunder team, creators of the best arcade racing game of all time. After two poorly received spin-offs, Arctic Thunder and Off-Road Thunder, Midway allegedly canceled the true sequel to Hydro Thunder in a moment of infinite evilness.

Details are scant, but to hear Raw Thrills tell it, H2Overdrive looks "amazing.""

Re: Hydro Thunder team making spirital sequel

That is great news. I was just thinking about this game the other day. There used to be some great arcade racers out there which I am really missing. It is nice to see something like this come along - the arcade racing genre needs a breath of fresh air.
