Vigilante 8: 2nd Offense is the sequel to Vigilante 8 released in 1999.Slick Clyde, one of the original Vigilantes, has turned evil and gone to work for OMAR. Over the years, he rises through the ranks until he becomes CEO of the company, becoming known as Lord Clyde. However, the U.S is still out of OMAR's reach, which annoys Clyde to no end. So he steals an experimental time machine from Stanford and, along with two subordinates of his, travels back to the '70s to change history, starting with trying to off Convoy. The attack seemingly succeeds, and the Coyotes are re-created again. Convoy's niece Sheila and his widow Houston take up the mantle as the Vigilantes' new leaders to combat them. In the midst of this are the Drifters, who aren't affiliated with either side and just out for themselves.Included more new areas (as well as the originals you can unlock), characters, cars and weapons, as well as modification pick ups which allow you fly, float on water or add skis for more traction. | |

Deflector Shield: The green shield power-ups from the original have returned. In this game, Dallas, Obake and Clyde gain these for their default chassis by maxing out their Defense stats. | |

Glass Cannon | |
| Vigilante 8: 2nd Offense (Video Game) / int_2f253c94 | comment |
Glass Cannon: The Flying All-Star team arguably has the strongest special attack in the second game. Too bad their car loses health if it is so much as rammed. Obake's vehicle is very similar, given how tiny it is. Just like the Flying All-Star team, her weapon can do quick damage if it connects. | |

Brown Note | |
| Vigilante 8: 2nd Offense (Video Game) / int_5db59a03 | comment |
Convoy's special attack is "Rolling Thunder", essentially the blasting of the truck's air horns to knock enemies back. However, it can disable the hover pods, skis, and propellers, and it knocks enemies very far back into other hazards - if you're unlucky, light cars will be thrown nearly clear of the map. In the first game, his special is an improvised explosive device called the Steel Belter, a spare tire laced with TNT that somehow also has homing capabilities. | |

And Your Reward Is Clothes | |
| Vigilante 8: 2nd Offense (Video Game) / int_6ac6a56a | comment |
And Your Reward Is Clothes: In Second Offense, as you upgrade your character's stats using Salvage points, their car will gain extra parts and equipment depending on the stat you upgrade. (Upgrading acceleration outfits the cars with spoilers and/or a beefier engine, upgrading shield gives them Deflector Shields and/or more intimidating bumper grills and covers, ETC.) Once you upgrade them all to 100, their entire car will be replaced with a tricked out Hot Rod version. Unfortunately the player is unable to revert back to their original chassis once they've upgraded to the hot-rod without ether starting a new save or intentionally losing matches so that they'll lose enough Salvage points to revert back. So if you prefer their default chassis with the extra parts, you have to select one stat to ignore. (Top Speed would be the best choice in this case as it's not only is it a Rare Random Drop, but the only thing it adds to the car is a a new set of tires) | |

Chassey's ending shows her and Chase driving away with a squad of Time Police cars chasing after them...and then that's the last we see of them. | |

Mundane Made Awesome: In Second Offense, Agent Chase (a time-traveling cop from the future) is fascinated by all-beef burgers in the 1970's. Then again, this could be seen as a subtle (and sad) reference to the dark and dismal future he hails from. | |

In the first game, his special is an improvised explosive device called the Steel Belter, a spare tire laced with TNT that somehow also has homing capabilities. The Garbage Man, who uses the truck's compactor; doesn't have great range, but if it connects, it will do some serious damage, especially for compact cars, which get sent into the back of the truck to be smashed even more by the internal compactor. Molo's special attack returns. Not only does it function the same way with a similar comical fart sound, but its ability to chew through someone's health bar is just as effective. Houston's special attack, which involves using the towing hook on her tow truck to...Well, tow your opponent's car around. In order to set it up, you have to get fairly close to your target, within Flamethrower distance, and then drive off, with the damage dealt depending on the tension put on the rope along with Collision Damage from towing them through parts of the environment and into traps. While it's pretty dangerous to set up, a well executed hit and run can chew up your opponent's lifebar. Especially if you incorporate the Hover Pods and land mines into the mix and ESPECIALLY if they end up getting snagged on a wall along the way. With the cheat code for multiple players to use the same character, having two Houstons tow the same opponent in different directions is an instant Total. | |

Never Say "Die": Convoy's in-game bio glosses over the fates of the Coyotes from the first game. Among those, Beeswax and Sid Burn are simply stated as "gone". Also, John Torque's in-game bio vaguely mentions the fate of Sid Burn in this fashion. Once again, Molo's in-game bio mentions him discovering Sid's abandoned car in the desert. And once again, the word "gone" is used for Sid's fate. | |
