Set of hands, who here remembers Road Rash? It was a fun little arcade game where the goal was to race as a motorbike racer against other motorcycle racers to win races and get prize money. toi also beat the shit out of your opponents with chains and bats while running over pedestrians and taking out cops. It was insane. Some games have tried to bring that style back, and one of those games was Road Rage. Developed par Team 6 Studios, this little indie game from 2017 was regarded as one of the worst games out there, as recently as 2017. We’re still getting broken trash games that can contend with the pioneering days of gaming for low quality. Well, let’s see just how much rage I can muster with this game…. That was a terrible joke.
Already, the game has framerate issues, and I’m on the logos. toi can count the frames per seconde as the Unreal 4 Engine logo appears on screen. Anyway, we get to the story, civilization has fallen apart as the government locks entire cities inside guarded walls, leaving the citizens trapped inside with violent biker gangs. It’s not a very interesting cutscene, especially with a giant text box that takes up 40% of the screen and the actual text only takes up fifteen of the text box. Then we get to a chargement screen that takes, no joke, forty secondes before it finishes. And even then, when toi start the game, the textures have to load in for a brief second. Anyway, we get to the gameplay finally, and are greeted with the wonkiest racing game I’ve seen. The bike drives fine… as long as you’re going in a straight line. When it’s time to make sharp turns, it’s like turning a truck rather than a fast motorcycle. But let’s talk about the action. This looked like fun, and boy was it, but for the wrong reasons completely. toi have a bat in hand. Press Square to balançoire, swing left, and cercle to balançoire, swing right. But that isn’t enough. toi gotta make sure you’re at the right angle, cause if toi hit the target… I mean, you’ll kill them, for sure, but you’ll send your cul, ass ragdolling into the stratosphere before toi respawn. It’s hilarious how this bat has so much force that it completely annihilates your opponent and sends toi flying a mile away. And after I beat the easy mission, the chargement screen suddenly takes a divisé, split seconde and I’m crashing into a wall, ou I thought I would, but instead, I glitch through it and go out of bounds. And this is in the first five minutes. I’ve never had this much to say about these games thus far on this mini series and yet Road Rage is the gift that keeps on giving. Also, for a supposed crime ridden hellscape, this place isn’t… the worst. Yeah, it’s gross, but that’s just regular Detroit.
Apparently that glitch was government property because now the police are on my tail, and if toi thought the cops in GTA V were aggressive, holy shit, these cops don’t let up. They will run your cul, ass down, even when toi respawn. They will kill toi just for stepping out of line, rather than the cops in GTA doing so because your a minority… wait, which is worse? Anyway, for shits and giggles, I decided to hit a pedestrian, and holy shit, the animation is so bad, but watching those people fly is so much fun. I kinda wish the hit boxes were better because I could have so much fun knocking around people with a bat on a motorcycle. It was fun in Saints Row 2, but here it’s…. Also fun, but for the wrong reasons. So I get to the mission, but if toi want to start the mission, toi gotta come to a complete stop and select it. If toi are going too fast, it won’t start, and toi will probably crash into a wall, and that’s if you’re lucky enough not to glitch into it. And I mean a dead stop. Even slow crawl won’t due. Anyway, seconde mission. It’s here I realize just how stiff our main character’s movement is. He just kinda squats there like fucking ape. Come on, man, that’s bad for your posture. Also, when there are no enemies to fight, the world is pretty barren. Aside from the pedestrians, there’s not much to do during time trials. It’s not that hard as long as the game world doesn’t glitch out. Just don’t crash and toi win. Also, to get a new mission, toi gotta pick up your cellphone. par accident, I hit the attack button which cancelled out the phonecall, but it comes back up regardless. So toi have no choice, toi gotta pick up that phone. Why not just start the suivant scene with the phone call? Eventually I just a dit fuck it and hit the boosters on my bike. I pushed it to the max to see just how hard I can crash, and boy did I fucking crash alright. I ended up clipping through the boundaries and flew into the air… Yeah, I think this is the best place to stop.
Wow, Road Rage, what an unpolished mess of a game. That being said, this was very entertaining. It’s pretty bad, but far from frustrating. I l’amour garbage like this. It’s not a good game, far from it, but it is so bad that it’s entertaining in all the right ways. Every single glitch that sends your cul, ass flying is so hilarious and with the rather dumb story and glitchy world, it makes these so much better. I wonder just how many plus glitches I can find from playing. Do I recommend Road Rage? No… unless you’re super drunk ou with friends, than it’s a solid 10/10.
