There was a PS2 game (can't remember name) where you are a car, and you travel from town to town unlocking upgrades and competing in races. There are many fetch side quests to get you more money for upgrades, and it just takes an enormous amount of time to unlock everything. It's very cartooney and has essentially no story besides "beat the races". Terrible racing physics, terrible dialogue, no story to speak of, obviously meant for 5-8 year olds.

Well, I paid $20, and I'm not wasting it. I beat it over the course of about 2 months. Unlocked everything, fully explored every area, completed all quests, and purchased every upgrade. I still don't know why.

Road Trip Adventure is a fantastic game.

Wash your mouth out!

Also I replayed that game last year and beat it in one weekend so definitely didn’t take an enormous amount of time to unlock things

THAT'S IT! It took me a long time because I wasn't playing it constantly. I was primarily playing Street Fighter Alpha 3 trying to get perfects on every fight with Shin Akuma in world tour mode. When I'd get frustrated with that, I'd switch.

Definitely doesn’t deserve to be called a terrible game, I thought it was brilliant and have replayed it countless times over the years.

I’d genuinely pay money for remastered version but I can’t see it ever happening

Well, whether or not something is good or terrible is subjective. I guess I shouldn't necessarily say it's terrible, I mean I did beat the thing after all, but it's far from the best game I've ever played. I guess I don't play too many different kinds of games to be exposed to the worst ones. I don't play any of the sports games for example, and I'm pretty careful about not purchasing games that don't have good reviews.
