Welcome to the first Complete In Box Sunday here at Time Extension. We'll be digging through our collections each week to showcase interesting games from yester-year. Along with the post on the website, we'll be posting photos via @timeextension on Instagram.
First up is SEGA Rally Championship for Windows/PC (just to prove that we aren't all about consoles). This release featured a somewhat unique big-box design with a suspended CD-ROM jewel case.
Obsessed with the Arcade version and unable to afford a SEGA Saturn at the time, this PC version gave me my rally fix. Running surprisingly well with a good enough machine, it was still a good time at home with this arcade classic.
The SEGAPC label went on to release a bunch of other SEGA classics over the years. I haven't played this version in quite a long time, as a couple of years back, I finally got my hands on a Saturn.
Do you remember SEGA Rally? Did you have it on another format? Let us know in the comments below:

Super cool box variant. Is the PC version better than the Japanese PS2 port?
Great idea for an article series! I wasn't around for the box era (NES-N64/PC, GB-GBA, etc) myself but seeing how neatly folded and carefully preserved this one is gives me nostalgia for a time I never even knew about until recently. I'd say the video game boxes that give me the most nostalgia would be old DS cases. Something about all that chunky plastic holding a tiny game cartridge endeared me to them from the moment I saw them and it's stayed that way ever since. I suppose it is just a matter of what ones you saw everywhere growing up.
Interesting stuff. That flimsy-arse box was my only problem with the Saturn version
Great idea for an article Anthony! and really appreciate all those photos. There is something about boxed games that bring a whole world of nostalgic joy to me. They just felt so complete.
I will be looking forward to future articles.
