Off-World Interceptor Extreme (オフワールド・インターセプター エクストリーム) is a 1995 action game by Crystal Dynamics for the Sega Saturn involving using cars with weapons to fight other cars with weapons in a 3D environment that only scrolls forward.

Versions

It is an enhanced port of the company's 3DO release Off-World Interceptor, released a year earlier.

Both the original and Extreme are slightly notable for its cutscenes, featuring two guys making comedic comments on the live-action cutscenes in the style of Mystery Science Theatre 3000. Interestingly, the Japanese versions remove said elements, instead featuring dubbed versions of the original, non-commentated cutscenes, and are the only versions to feature said original footage.
