Classic Game Room - ROAD RASH 3 for Sega Genesis review

[@mistertitanic]

The music is awesome.

[@mdejajulislam2818]

Mistertitanic xxxccc

[@michaelhulcy6680]

That fucking music though! Fucking AWESOME! But the bike engine wining and skid sounds, he ain't kidding, very grating to the ears.

[@GameSack]

The Road Rash on the 3DO (also ported to the PS and Saturn) was my favorite of the bunch. Road Rash 3 looks like it was based on the graphics digitized for that game which was later ported to the Sega CD. The graphics were simply shoveled over in to this game. Also, I am a bit glad they haven't tried to redo Road rash because they'd just screw it up. Only Criterion Games could do it justice!

[@martinsennitis670]

Audio was perfect- music was so damn awesome, i ussually hummed the melodies long after plaiing it!!!!!

[@Relkin109]

i did the exact opposite for the sound. I left the amazing music on and turned the bike engine off. Absolutely hated the engine noise.

[@Tclbmx_]

when you turn on the music, the engines are automatically off though.

[@andyappleton3353]

What, you don't like the sound of a freak'in bumblebee buzzing directly next to your ear much?

[@sem9077]

Where is fuckin music, which was amazing!

[@L1011Widebody]

I don't often flat-out disagree with you, but you're totally wrong about the music. 1 and 2 had a great soundtrack, 3 was decent (the digitized guitar and very flat bass drum got grating after a while) but it was all great.

[@zanegandini5350]

I really blame the instruments more than anything, compare the original Road Rash's soundtrack from the Genesis version vs the Game Gear/Master System version and you'll see what I mean. Yeah sure, Rob Hubbard's compositions sound okay on the Genesis, but they're absolutely outstanding on the GG/MS thanks to Matt Furniss utilizing the Krisalis sound driver.

[@retro16bit72]

The music is one of the best things about Road Rash!

[@ClaudioFirsoff]

The music is way better than just listenning to the bike engine... My favorite Road Rash is this one!

[@OneCrayGuy89]

I actually love the music in Road Rash- especially the track for the U.K. and Italy. Good stuff! One of my favorite Genesis games :)

[@TitanzDude]

Ah the memories, as an early 80's baby I love these classic reviews!

[@Mjjohnson-df6fi]

I would buy a ps3 or ps4 just to play this online multiplayer. That would be amazing fun

[@thegreathadoken6808]

Hey there. 4 years on from your comment, so I'm certifiably insane for replying to you, really, but check out a game called Road Redemption. It's hardly a great game or anything but it IS heavily influenced by Road Rash, with modern gwafix and no doubt online multiplayer.

[@beccal58]

The music is brilliant in Road Rash, I think. Metal! \m/(>.

[@dawndavenport]

i love the "cut scenes". Lots of laughs at the strong guy throwing your bike in the back of your ride as it speeds away.

[@rodzor]

Epic game, rented it sofaking much back in the day. Skitchen' too.

[@GaigeGrosskreutzsMissingBicep]

god i used to LOVE the road rash games growing up. i must have played all the road rashes and all of the mortal kombats for years when i was younger. one of my favorite things to do in road rash was hitting the jumps and knocking somebody off of their bike while in mid air. good times

[@chrisleinhart]

RR3 music is the ultimate you philistine

[@SMATF5]

What are you talking about? This game had awesome music! ...Although maybe that's at least partly the nostalgia talking.

[@Cerbera82]

3:49 that guy totalling himself into the bull is actually hilarious!, I still play road rash in 2020. best game series ever

[@HotstopKid_RugbyGameplays]

whoaaa never thought id see this game ever again

[@JazzzRockFuzion]

This truly makes my day...this is my ALL-TIME FAVORITE video game!! Thanks so much for this!!

[@xdoomsdaydevicex]

I can't tell you how much nostalgia this video gave me.

[@spiderjerusalem100]

Yay! More Mega drive reviews. This game was so badass back in the day but it was annoying having to run 5 miles back to your bike after you crash.

[@SockyNoob]

This was like the first game I ever played as a kid.

[@thx1974eb]

Just unpacked my original genesis I bought when I was 17 back in 1991, still have about 20 games and got lucky a still have road rash 3. played it last night and it still rocks. now my genesis is back in action, I play it more now than ps3. mutant league football is another great one.

[@ProtoMario]

The PC version has the old CD cut scenes but they are Hillarious, especially when you get arrested and are thrown in the trunk. Classic

[@neevsmazda07]

i have road rash for the sega saturn. simple, yet great. the music with this game was the icing on the cake with music from bands like sound garden.

[@GtheMVP]

Punching sound effects when they land, coupled with opponents crashing, were the best sound pieces of the 16/8 bit era.

[@Lyricoholic]

i remember this game very nice to see it again

[@Xevonarin]

The Music in RR1 on the beach level was amazing. One of the few times RR did music right

[@Ryan3d]

OMG ! this game was my childhood !!! so awesome!

[@richardminor1019]

so many memories! me and my bro would play road rash for hours!

[@sglider]

I love the music and sound in parts 1 and 2, they're classic. The snare drum is awesome, it's more rock sounding than most Genny games. Part 3, as a game, I didn't care for. Didn't like the new visual style. EA became obsessed with the 3DO version and tried to simulate it into other releases for other systems..and despite it's popularity, it was never as playable or as fun as the Genesis originals.

[@mrnicktoyou]

Hehe, those cut scenes really are awesome.

[@мифодийбжерский]

The best game of all times and peoples.

[@Drrck11]

3:44 Hey, why can the car drive thru the cow, but you can't? LOL

[@MikeRoePhonicsMusic]

+Drrck11 F=ma

[@MickeyMouse-mw3me]

the music in road rash games is brilliant!

[@vittau]

As a kid, my main incentive to finish the races were the awesome cut-scenes. =P

[@kadonttreadonme]

this is awesome. i started playing this again this week.

[@kylewilzon8612]

I loved this game. I remember it looking so better lol.

[@mgs19901]

I remember renting all 3 at the same time from a place called movie land then it became a blockbuster now it's a vacant building lol

[@kjorg27]

Funny cut scenes, yet the game has no ending.

[@FoundationsofPause]

Road Rash 3 has one of my fav soundtracks. It was plain rockin.

[@digioverlord]

aww man a new road rash on the 360 would kick ass! with ragdoll physics and destructible enviroments! knocking your fellow riders of thier bikes would never get old!

[@rmsanche]

At 4:43 “don’t turn the audio up too high, it does leave permanent damage”....just like a real motorcycle!

[@katakisLives]

A great reveiw as usual! I though that the Road rash series had some of the best graphics of any racing game on the Genesis! especially this one! a marked improvement on the previous game! the pseudo 3D effect and the stuff at the side of the road!

[@ohhherrohii21]

woah brahh! Probably the best game soundtrack to date.

[@hollowsoul2338]

Aw memories

[@dennett316]

The Road Rash series is awesome. I liked that if you beat the crap out of people enough they'd hold a grudge and go after you in subsequent races, if you leave the guys at the back of the pack alone they generally won't try to murder you....where's the fun in that though? I also loved ramming them into oncoming traffic.....they need to do an HD version of the old-school Road Rash style for PSN or XBLA, that would be sweet!!

[@krystian1333]

Loved this game as a kid.

[@ChalkTeacher]

This is one of my favorites games on the Megadrive. And yes... the game is 1000 times better with the music ON

[@0M9H4X_Neckbeard]

do you have a new mic or did you mix your voice differently or did it change?

[@yakshamo]

What a fantastic review you did.

[@DrocDoc]

I was playing "road redemption" on my PC and it reminded me of this game. memories..............

[@ellispoo44]

Man that reminded me how great that game was

[@coffeemuggs]

i use to have this game when i was 5 or 6 i lovedd it

[@joeholt7765]

Loved this game growing up

[@darkinertia2]

road rash 3d on the psx was possibly my fave road rash....amazing

[@WenzelAudio]

The music is awesome !!

[@W00dland_90]

I actually liked the music in this game. I remember my cousin making fun of me when I read the captions in this game, I was young and couldn't read very well.

[@thecrow9026]

ah lucky luc my nemesis. I almost had difficulty passing through but when i do crushed him with my crowbar or leading him onto oncoming traffic It would feel so good.

[@gozinta82]

Totally true, Mark. The music for the 3do version of Road Rash is way better. :D

[@SufferDYT]

i always loved the music in road rash 1

[@tuberofyou1]

which road rash is the best? you reviewed all three and you never once compared them or told us which one you think is the best... I want to buy one but dont know which one is the most enjoyable

[@anticorncob6]

3:45 Did that car just go through the animal? I like this series. It's neat how the first Road Rash was just in California, then it expanded to the United States, then the whole world.

[@supersaver87]

I liked that expanding thing too. When I was a kid, I actually expected there to be a RR4 that took place across the galaxy and have you race on the moon. I was a weird kid. XD

[@anticorncob6]

supersaver87 When I was younger I only had RR2, so I never noticed the expansion thing. I have recently now that I know about all three road rashes, and I did think about a fourth that took place on various planets in our solar system, none being earth.

[@isorSOT]

It's one of my very, very, VERY!!!!!!!! favorite games on Genesis...

[@raff1021]

That music is.....awesome.

[@orzConqueror]

Once you notice the mechanic of the race being you basically going up in tiers with NPC, changing which ones will be shadowing and teleporting to you as you get ahead, it gets pretty grating. I'm about to give up a run at mid level 3 just because it's too annoying to have the NPC that don't even have the decency of having a portrait and some trashtalk just teleporting beside you and bumping you into the innumerable obstacles you find by then.

[@LJLMETAL]

@3:50; that cow is indestructible.

[@shammy63]

So many memories...

[@SirCaco]

Man I remember when I saw that fake gameplay video for a new Road Rash game a long time ago... I was so pumped. God damnit they gonna make another one! I'm tired of Road Rash 64 already, that's the best one but it's old as hell now!

[@Aidscorn]

I think the music for this game is awesome

[@IceDelight]

I loved the music in these games. I havent heard it for a long time though, to be honest.

[@predaking2wings]

Just note i was only able to beat up to level 3, level 4 and 5 were too hard, the superbike was a bit too fast for me, dig the trash talking great gameplay!

[@AlderDragon]

I used to spend a lot of time as a kid playing Road Rash 2

[@onceuponatimeonearth]

rofl those cutscenes are so freaking awesome

[@Igorsov]

I am pretty sure, this one is the best of the series.

[@marto8520]

Que recuerdos!!! cuanto tiempo abre jugado este juegos, nunca lo pase llegue al nivel 4 sin trucos ni nada. ;(

[@18izzo]

The road rash on the game looks just like the WCW Logo!!

[@SlapHappyJesus]

@katarn109 They announced a supposed remake a while ago, but then dropped the project. There is a pretty cool tech demo here on youtube and other sites. This was my favorite genesis series. I would love to see it return.

[@TrevRman]

man, i remember me and my dad used to pass the controller back and forth when we played road rash 3d

[@benjojo09]

Your commentary is so epic ^^

[@profholt82]

He's right about the audio quality in the Genesis versions; however, Sega CD version has great audio.

[@Cyclon32289]

AGree with the sound ROAD RASH II music -and the game overall- was much better

[@Liv1ngTheDream]

I want the RR soundtrack played at my funeral, and marriage if that ever happens....

[@DaWolfetrax]

@ApocalypseNow012 what? this is his job, reviewing game for us!!! Sega Genesis was one of the best consoles of that time, it isnt that advanced like the Xbox 360, PS3, Wii or PC and the new tablets, handheld consoles etc. but it has a nostalgia that wont be forgotten that easy...

[@Kharnivore2099]

I never cared for the later game, though it did have some awesome tunes. Soundgarden, monster magnet...just amazing.

[@igotyou62darthvat]

road rash on the PC was awesome

[@zhayes01]

Good video I love this game but I haven't played it in forever

[@becomeanolive1637]

Road Rash 2 and the 3D0, Saturn, Ps1 version was the best one's.

[@ClassicTVMan1981X]

Finally! My wish was granted!

[@eastcoasteric315]

I say that you have a Road Rash marathon all week long! The PSone version was the best and I have a guilty pleasure for Road Rash 3D, haha. P.S. Anyone whinging about the generous amount of animal meets tire in this game, should go cry on the shoulder of PETA.

[@predaking2wings]

get this game, great game, the difference from this to road rash 1 and 2 is that your racer are always there to fight you, they even slow down soo you can catch them and knock them off there bike!! and there not as easy to knock off. It feel like a different game trust me!!

[@JamesMorrow07]

1:27 - Holy crap!! Did that big macho man just pick up the dude's bike and tossed it in the of that car?! o__0

[@1shoryuken]

love Road Rash 1 & 2, never played Road Rash 3, im really surpised that they used the digitalized visuals on this one.

[@OhJustCallMeLuke]

I LOVE THIS GAME!! And I have a trick to share with you: buy the 3rd Sport Bike (the one that costs $11000 or something), then go to the Password section, modify the 5th and 6th characters to 16 characters up (For example, if you have ---- aa--, it will become ---- qq--), accept the password and... well, find that out by yourselves ;D

[@Xegethra]

i like in this game how if you wreck a bike, you get the chance to pay it off by wrecking another racers bike. or when you get busted, theyll let you go free if you help them bust another racer

[@nightmathzombieethan]

FINALLY: Mark reviews the best goddamn game ever released on the Genesis....oh wait...Road Rash 2 was the best...... Goddamn!

[@breakingbaz7709]

Road Rash ll holds the title

[@GripAttack777]

Even though you kinda bashed on the music ( which i think is awesome! on road rash 2-3...i don't own 1) i think the review was pretty nice man. Good Job!
