Vette! is a {{vgy|1989}} racing video game where the object is racing a Chevrolet Corvette through the streets of San Francisco. The game was notable for its (at the time) detailed un-shaded polygon rendering of San Francisco streets. It was released on three floppy disks with a Black & White or Color version available. It was also released with a large instruction manual that gave detailed specs about the cars and details about various areas in the city.

The game features a 3D rendered San Francisco, including the Golden Gate Bridge, the San Francisco Bay Bridge,{{r|scisco198911}} and Lombard Street, known as the "Crookedest Street In The U.S."

  • The ability to drive anywhere within the accurately modeled city, including highways, tunnels, and bridges
  • Pulling over at the various gas stations repairs the car.

Copy protection

At the beginning of the game, a question from the manual requires a correct answer to prove game ownership. If the question is falsely answered, the game can be played for a limited time before a window popped up claiming, "You are Driving a Stolen Vette" and the game crashes.{{cn|date=April 2017}}

Reception

Compute! favorably reviewed the game, describing it as "Falcon AT on the ground". It praised the game's detail and EGA graphics, only criticizing the lack of sound card support, and concluded that "Vette! surpasses other driving simulations in its scope and realism".[1]
