Steam users ironically love the re-released, flawed game

The infamously bad racing game "Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing" from 2003, previously scoring only 8/100 on Metacritic, has been re-released on Steam. Its initial release was marked by extreme glitches and unplayable gameplay. Despite its negative past reputation, the Steam version has received 80% positive reviews within a day, far exceeding initial expectations. It also saw a peak of 70 concurrent players. Players are responding with ironic praise and nostalgia. The re-release's popularity suggests its notorious reputation as a flawed game is a primary factor in its current reception.
