RAGE

All you would expect from an Id game, but for being so large, it's a short game.

As you would expect from an Id game, this game plays and controls well and is more graphically advanced than anything else. Other than that, there's not much to it, there's no competitive Deathmatch from the creators of the first-person shooter genre and deathmatch. The game is rather short, being only 6 hours unless you really have the need to explore and meet new people. Talk to everyone and drive around the entire landscape if you want this game to last.

Presentation: A story that reminds one of the Fallout games and a beginning similar to the film, Pandorum. It's interesting and you keep wanting to know what happens next. Plus: John Goodman.

Gameplay: As you play it, you know it's an Id game but you drive and you wonder what you're really playing. It's fun to drive and race but the rallies are rather annoying, especially on harder difficulties. But as you shoot a guy in the face 3 times with a pistol, you find yourself wondering how these guys survive, then you say to yourself "Id."

Graphics: Best looking game on console, better than Crysis 2 and that says a lot. This game looks beautiful but as you look around, the textures take a second to load.

Sound: The voice acting is great, it's fun to hear your opponents swear after annihilating their allies. The sound effects are great, and there's a soundtrack that's pretty good if you pay attention. Also: John Goodman.

Lasting appeal: There's trophies, co-op multiplayer missions that aren't really that special, and vehicular combat and racing competitive multiplayer. Other than that, there's not much to keep this game appealing.

  Though lacking originality, Rage still offers enough for a satisfying post-apocalyptic shooter experience.

  Rage's wasteland is a desolate and unforgiving place, marked by a patchwork of canyons and gullies and dotted with the rusted out remains of mankind's dominion over planet earth. The rubble of centuries old highway overp... Read Full Review
