Another Great Shooter From ID
PostedApril 13, 2012
Rage is the newest first-person shooter from ID, and is an excellent one at that...but it fails to truly add anything revolutionary to the genre beyond the implementation of vehicle combat. The post-apocalyptic setting is a bit played-out these days, but everything looks amazing and runs at a good clip (save for some slow texture draw-in on the PS3 version). The controls are spot-on and most of the weapons have two or more types of ammunition to keep things interesting--plus the craftable items are a fun element. The voice acting and sound effects are about the best you could ask for as well. So why not a perfect score? The problem is all of this has been done before by other open-world, dystopian shooters like Fallout and Borderlands. I'm also not too fond of the long load times between areas. And while the environments are beautiful, they interact poorly with the player; there's a lot of boxes and junk sitting around...but they don't explode or take damage when shot at. However, Rage is still a superb game--and a lengthy one as long as you opt to complete all of the available races and side quests. As is expected from ID, Rage's vague story and lack of cinematics leaves something to be desired...so don't expect a narrative on the same level as say, Mass Effect. If you enjoyed ID's other FPS games from the past, you'll definitely love Rage. If not, you may want to pass this one up.

BEST GAME I PLAYD FOR PS3
PostedApril 6, 2012
This game is so cool, the guns are really cool story mode is so intense once you go to the mission dead city youd be so relieved u passed and made out alive from dead city. This game is really bloody and intense I would recommend it if u like bloody intense shooting action games. Can't wait for rage 2 , if they make it

Excellent Idea and Mechanics, But Too Short
PostedMarch 29, 2012
This game was not a bad purchase for $16 but I wish that id and Bethesda would have made the main campaign longer. It took me about 10 hours to see and do everything in Rage. Granted, I was playing on normal difficulty, but still. Amazing graphics, tight gunplay, and great setting, but it was all over too soon. A real letdown considering the caliber of both the developer and publisher.

Very Nice
PostedMarch 16, 2012
I thought it was gonna be a boring game, but it turned out to be so tempting that I couldnt put it down. Upgrading ur character doesnt seem to be optional. But overall I would strongly suggest you try this game. I would say that this is like Jak 3, a lil bit of racing n driving, no magic, but gory action. Maybe a gory version of Jak 3. Try it. You wont regret it.
