Vette! is a racing game originally published by Spectrum Holobyte for the IBM PC in 1989. A version for the Sega Mega Drive was reportedly announced at Winter CES 1990, and would have made use of the TeleGenesis add-on[1] (which itself was only released in Japan as the Sega Mega Modem). It was still in development a year later, according to the February 1991 issue of Raze magazine.[2] The game was cancelled for reasons unknown.
As the name may suggest, Vette! is a racing game in which you drive a Chevrolet Corvette (C4) around an open-world depiction of San Francisco. It is considered by many to be a pioneering game, both in its use of 3D models to render its world, but also in its accurate representation of the city's layout, acting as a precursor to Grand Theft Auto III-style sandbox games that are common today.
Macintosh and PC-9801 ports were released in 1991 and 1993, respectively. No console ports were ever released (although an updated sequel was at one point planned for the PlayStation in 1996).
