Vigilante 8 is a 1998 vehicular combat game developed by Luxoflux and published by Activision for PlayStation, Nintendo 64, and Game Boy Color. V8 began life as a port of Interstate '76, but soon spun off into its own entity. Console versions received favorable reviews, and its sequel, Vigilante 8: 2nd Offense, was quickly commissioned and released just over a year later. A remake, Vigilante 8 Arcade, was released in 2008 exclusively for Xbox 360 through Xbox Live Arcade.
