Looks like Virtua Racing (side note - the 32x version of this game was actually kind of good). I think Donkey Kong Country Competition Edition thing was the second one.

This is a hilarious photo I found of him while searching for it. Apparently there is a Tetris doc coming out about the game's competitive side that has him in it. I'm pretty psyched for that, there are at least 3 good looking video game competition docs supposedly coming out this year. edit: I watched the trailer and it looks awesome, link. Looks like it covers a lot of NWC stuff which is great because this wiki article leaves a lot of unanswered questions. The more stuff I read on Thor the crazier it gets. "I never really thought about it. It was very surreal at the time, but the contest followed a period in my life that was really hard, our house in The Colony, TX burned down the year before, and my mother had an attack of ventricular tachycardia that left her very lucky to be alive and a very long hospital stay and rehabilitation period," Aackerlund recalled. "In the end it was a small bright spot in the midst of a lot of hardship and transition." (from the article that pic is in) | ||

I take offense to this because I had one of those cool hair styles back in those days just like the announcer. People see pictures of me from back then and think it looks dumb and nobody believes me it was once a sweet ass hairstyle. Maybe some day it will come back and get the revenge it deserves... | ||
