ROAD RASH PS1 REVIEW PC
In the PC version of Road Rash, there's an extra feature. So with some alterations, I was able to play the game slightly better. Default keyboard settings were complicated to get used to. On the PC, you can play the game either with a keyboard or joystick. But if you fell when the officer is on your back, game over! The real fun was in stealing the stick from the police! You can beat the police while riding as well. It was more fun back then when we were younger.īut if you hit innocent people, police will try to catch you with their bikes and stay with you like glue. That's sounds pathetic, but let me tell you the truth. You can also hit the general people beside roads and while crossing roads. Grabbing, punching, and kicking the opponents while riding is pure fun.

Though you can win by playing fair, I highly recommend the dirty race. Winning games will allow you to unlock longer tracks. Earn money by winning the race and buy better bikes. Thrash mode is like just press the start button and GO!Īt first, you'll start racing with an old bike. Little touches like chatting with the other racers in the club are pretty cool.Īnd if you don't want to waste time on career mode, you should go for thrash mode. Here you can pick your maniac, qualify to play longer and harder tracks, earn money by winning, and move up the ladder in the rider's billboard. One of my favorite thing on this version of road rash is Big game mode, which is like career style mode. And all riders look like gangsters and obviously ready to start their nasty and violent bike ridings. In big game mode, you can select your favorite riders from the rider list you can check their profile as well. There are three modes in the game - Big game mode, thrash mode, and mano-a-mano. In this game, you have to participate in illegal and very violent street racing. Road Rash is an updated version of the classic first road rash sega mega drive. Because back then it was hard to riding and kicking at the same time using the keyboard! Ah good old days! I remember playing it with my big brother, He used to drive and I controlled the hitting part. So, there's no surprise I am going to praise this game. Maybe this game was first released on the Playstation, but I played this game when I first bought my PC in 2006 - 2008, I guess! And during the holiday, nobody even couldn't get me off this game. A huge disappointment indeed.If I have to describe the Road Rash game just in two words, I have to say - Childhood memories.

This is not what Road Rash is about! Mix this in with some horrible graphics and you have a total stinker of a game.

But where is the fun in this? If you're going faster you have to slow down to their speed and painstakingly attack them while maintaining slowness. The aim is to knock the rashers off their bikes before they reach the finish line. There is also a new feature here in which you can play Marshall Lee on his police bike. There is no counter telling you how far you've come in the racecourse. There is no rear-view mirror or indicators telling you who is behind. There are very few/no opportunities for stunts/jumps. It doesn't really feel like a race anymore and there are 11 less people to beat-up. But you magically reappear on the bike in a second. Falling off only happens (rather unspectacularly) when you're energy hits zero. If you smash into your car you just go right through it. You cannot fall off your bike and run around. Everything that makes Road Rash great has been whittled down to nothing that I ended up wondering why they bothered. It's so weak and pointless and the gameplay is unbelievably crap. Jailbreak is an embarrassment to the Road Rash franchise.
