Oddly enough, much like Jade Champion in the opening sequence to Interstate '76, the Interstate series of games died on Interstate '82.

At the Activision I '76 Homepage, look on top of the 8-track player.  See that book labeled 'Auto-Vigilante's Guide to Multi-melee Combat'?  It used to actually go to a page with the I '76 map builder and other multiplayer stories and tips on it.

Originally, there were going to be more hand-held weapons than just the pistol.  Also planned were a sawed-off shotgun, grenade launcher, and a Molotov slingshot.  You can still see the weapons in the parts catalog.

If you have a copy of Mechwarrior 2: Mercenaries, pop it into your computer and check under the avi directory.  You'll find an old preview for Interstate '76.
