The sequel was one of the first games I ever played that took advantage of those "new fangled" 3d-accelerated graphics, and I still gleefully recount stories of messing with the damage model and dynamic repair system - pressing a button and watching your crumpled fenders magically smooth themselves back out was a blast. A new Carmageddon game would be freaking awesome, it was pretty much the only racing game that ever interested me, because racing was mostly optional (violence, not so much, ha ha!).
I will be very disappointed if this turns out to be some lame iOS app.
