Mini Desktop Racing , released on November 24, 2000 for the PlayStation 2, is a unique racing game that combines high-speed action with miniature car models. Players take control of their own car, each no larger than a real-life matchbox, and navigate through intricate tracks filled with obstacles and challenges.
The gameplay in Mini Desktop Racing focuses on precision and strategy as players aim to cross the finish line first. With its compact scale, even the slightest miscalculation can lead to a devastating crash or loss of momentum. To succeed, drivers must master the art of speed control, braking, and cornering while avoiding hazards like spikes, oil slicks, and other opponents' cars.

Extracted from the original game manual
This is an extreme sports racing game where players compete in downhill biking events across diverse, hazardous global environments. Players must navigate treacherous terrain, avoid obstacles, and utilize tricks to achieve victory.
Story
The Mountains
Mt. MiDoule, Italy
Irate mountain goats can send you hucking over a cliff. You could even get hit by lightning.
The beauty of the Alps is breathtaking even while skidding down the trail on your face. Take the time to explore this vast paradise, but just make sure you finish in first place.
Red Pass, U.S.A.
The Red Pass is Ground Zero in the U.S. for the Downhill Biking sport. Blast through this red desert while leaping gigantic chasms and sandstone cliffs.
Get incredible speed on this long, slick-rock freeway.
Mt. Konawaki, U.S.A.
Battle your way down the mountain over searing lava flows and tubes. Look out for crazed herds of wild wrong-way porkers running for their lives.
Huge cliff jumps and an almost vertical ride make Konawaki a breakneck tropical trip.
Mt. Quintanaroo, Peru
This could be the straightest downhill of all the mountains. The village passage is a no-brainer if you stay on the rooftops, but the run through the ruins is a technical headache.
Don't get your head kicked off by an escaping llama.
Mt. Zorkovaska, Russia
Feel the freezer burn while dodging ice chasms, polar bears and bicycle-crushing icicles. The weather is abominable and so are some of the locals.
Keep your Bunny Hop charged for leaping. Due to a scheduling error, you're sharing the mountain with the Russian military.
Mt. Liddellroch, Scotland
Scream along ancient crumbling parapets and try not to splatter yourself on a castle wall in this historic descent through medieval ruins.
Narrow passages, tons of trees, and surprise drop-offs make this one of the toughest rides around.
Mt. Imasaki, Japan
Tight, technical stretches, lousy weather, and tons of tourists make the flight down Mt. Imasaki a tough challenge.
Crash through office buildings and terrify steam bath patrons on this fierce descent.
Salt City, U.S.A.
This is hardcore urban asphalt riding under a fat and full moon. Dart through darkened streets, dodge dogs and look for parking garage shortcuts.
High-rise Bunny Hopping can stick you some huge trick air. The MX and TDH courses are daytime versions and include different themes.
•
The MX starts in the Capital building.
•
The TDH takes place on a college campus.
Mt. McSchley, Canada
You might scare the hell out of the deer, but the Grizzly bears will stomp you into the dirt on this craggy Canadian descent.
Illegal ladder bridges and old stump infested lumbering sites make for some hair-raising technical sections. But you can steal back some time burning through the golf course.
