The premise of the game involves racing in sport cars, including several exotic models and Japanese imports. The game noted for its attempts in realism, and audio and video commentaries. Electronic Arts teamed up with automotive magazine Road & Track to match vehicle behaviour, including the mimicking of the sounds made by the vehicles' gear control levers. The game also contained precise vehicle data with spoken commentary, several "magazine style" images of each cars interior and exterior, and even short video clips highlighting the vehicles set to music. There is also a Special Edition of the game for Windows and a Skyline Memorial version of Over Drivin' for the PlayStation.
