[@RZAJW]

One of the best fps games ive ever played

[@justindloski9129]

Wow you are so cool. Not.

[@fadedace1342]

Agreed

[@rickdff62]

I don't understand the hate for this game. I like it, a lot.

[@MrPink-fx3xw]

I love it to the world is very interesting

No I thought it was very good and looks lovely with my very average gpu (gtx950)

[@shottybeatssword]

the first 30 second is the best game montage i've seen in VERY long time, amazing editing. gives me chills every time i see it

[@NewCanadianTurtle]

Reminds me so much of mad max fury road. Can't wait to play it

[@123mammals]

This game looks like a realistic borderlands AWESOME

[@Tater_Toot]

Just wait until Destiny comes out ;D

[@ImJustBacon]

xFireGatezx and look what happened lol same issues aside from better multiplayer.

[@amk68sco]

would love a rage 2 on ps4

[@amk68sco]

+Hayden Onion I know.quite a while ago as well.id still love a rage 2.

[@drosvnchx9535]

+Alex Mackay Bethesda announced they sold enough copies to make a sequel.

[@DoktorVitek]

It's happening right now.

[@bounceycake1]

Funny, this comment was posted 2 years ago, and they just revealed the trailer for Rage 2 with gameplay coming out tomorrow

[@TimeMakerMan]

Alex Mackay 2yrs later, your wish came true

[@BacteriumsBud]

hey, do you guys think I should buy this or Resistance 3? I've been a fan of post apocalyptic shooters for a while now, and these two are kinda similar IMO

[@meitsi455]

@Delta2357 which i should get: RAGE which does have multiplayer and openworld, or ARKHAM CITY which doesnt have multiplayer but so many and many side quests and hours to play, or UNCHARTED 3 with short but interesting campaign with multiplayer?

[@simple-commentator-not-rea7345]

RAGE and Fallout should unite

[@piercebrockdorf8198]

The ending of this game sucked

[@VideoGameAF]

should i get for pc?

[@pepijagarzekje]

@Delta105RUS what system are you currently running? what are the specs?

[@LinkMarioSamus]

This game looks good but not particularly good, not like Half-Life 2 level or anything. What irks me most of all is, what's the point of spending on shiny graphics when the game itself looks so generic?

[@92Garrus]

I don't see how it looks generic at all lol

[@alextownley9388]

LinkMarioSamus how is a game with first-person shooting and vehicular combat generic? 😂

[@margesimpson1337]

What a terrible review, there is nothing to explore here, you walk through the SAME dungeons over and over. They may be visually diverse but you'd be hard pressed to play this game for than a few hours straight as you retread the same boring tasks that have been in the genre since doom. Walk or sneak into a room and kill everything. That's it. The racing was so ho-hum, not to say it was terrible there is definitely a lot of polish on the controls and "mega-textured" environments. But trust me, by the time u reach the second disc it will start to feel like a chore. Did I mention I only spent $7 on it and im still pissed. I got deus ex for only $5 and holy shit is that game way better.

[@adampalma3765]

marge simpson opinion respected but fuck me I strongly disagree with you

[@oddnomad8010]

@Qorumz i played and ended U2 and it was awesome experience.....does U3 match it in intensity or even surpass it?

[@RakerR22]

Does anybody know the length of the "Making of" DVD that comes with the Anarchy edition of Rage?

[@ImRickyIWin]

Also how is the replay value?

[@ImRickyIWin]

I'm thinking about buying this game but I was wondering how the texture loading is and if it is really buggy without installing? I really wish the rental place had this game so I could just rent it instead.

[@212TINYCAT4]

ok thanks i have an xbox but is there another version of this game? like an epic edition?

[@212TINYCAT4]

Is this game worth getting for xbox 360? cause im on the border of getting it and if i do get it is there more than 1 version??

[@Prototype136]

where did u find crazy joe? i cant find him

[@Personaboutspeed]

What's the song in the background??

[@RobloxLambo2011]

@SpadeAce90 : I found a copy of it for €30. Is that amount worth RAGE? I want to know because I'm considering on buying it. I've seen gameplay but I'm still agnostic about it.

[@Izak80]

Wonder if my rig will be enough for this game (q9550, gtx275, 4gb ram and still on xp)?

[@killervenom2478]

Hay u tube I got a question shoud I buy this or just cause 2 n is rage worth buying n is it co'op not over xbox live

[@Jornalator]

Hi just want to ask I was planing to buy this game but my pc isn't that good and a 21 gig game is it worth it ???

[@nicknachos1]

@Evilcrushing is multiplayer fun? i've never tried it im bust playing the campaign on nightmare it's a lot of fun

[@Izak80]

Wonder if my rig (q9550, gtx275, 4gb ram and still on Xp) will be enough for this game?

[@oddnomad8010]

@Mr4pp what do you mean it did a poor job on making it "feel" like an open world game? does it restrict your freedom in any way? does it have barriers sorta like fallout new vegas had(invisible walls)?

[@VoteSkipper]

@au25 would you give this game more and lower then a 8?

[@edgecutionha]

@JukemDrawles89 how far are you in rage

[@spunkflunk]

if i found borderlands boring, wil i find this game boring?

[@Azzabor]

So, is this game worth it? i've heard mixed reviews from different people

[@shumworld]

is the campaign open to co-op online.

[@Gggmanlives]

did he purposely not mention the texture pop-in for a reason?

[@HuffDaddyYT]

This game had so much potential. It didn't live true to it's hype. I just bought this game for 5 dollars though so i'm gonna give it a try.

[@jacob2934]

in the beginning of the game there is a popup that recommends that you save early and often because it doesnt autosave often

[@Geolas88]

How Can I make The wingsticks explode?

[@3p1cBlu3]

@GreeneAppleGeek My console wont get driver errors or compatibility issues

[@EnricoZulu]

Game looks stunning ,but is it worth the coin? Wich game should I buy instead of this then?

[@xmiggs93x]

whats steam sale??

[@rayados6]

has anyone beat this game? if so how many days? i just rented mine and i have to return it in 7 days, think ill beat it?

[@Matty1800]

Does this have story co-op!?

[@Port69420]

If I Install this game on my hard drive then play through it and get achievements will I be able to delete Rage from the hard drive without losing any achievements, basically to get my 21/22 gigs of memory back ?

[@dennidodo]

@SpaceRazzer so you're saying it's worth $60? i dont know wheter to buy it or not, 20 hours of gameplay seems a little short.

[@OuterHeavenNET]

Am i wrong in saying the campaign was very short?

[@VETRIS84]

0:25 isnt that the sound from MW2 when you level up?

[@magnesm122]

At 0:26, is this the sound of the "Academy" from StarCraft 1?

[@TheGam3ingCow]

Should I get this or Borderlands 1?

[@LiangHuBBB]

@austinpowers1124 Wait,why do you think Borderland was better?I have only played Borderland and the game was ok,but got kinda boring after a while since many missions are quite the same.What's so bad in Rage compared to Borderland?I have seen Rage today for 30 Euro at my local shop and I was considering in getting this game.

[@Jex516]

so is gamespot and ign the same?

[@kaushikpaddy]

@Delta2357 yea now the only way we can do that is through dlc :\ but im not into paying extra for a few hours of gameplay

[@Heavysweating]

i have chance get this on 10€, should i get it?

[@Picnicl]

and Fallout 3 and Borderlands apparently although I haven't played those)- oh and the remote control car idea that I personally first saw in James Bond: Everything or Nothing. Its segments will seem familiar in isolation but the high frame rate (on PS3 anyway), the challenge of not always having enough ammunition and the subtle artistry of the environments (an interesting graphics engine that has some flat looking images as well as shiny looking ones) manages to make it a intriguing package.

[@TheAtheistAussie]

Far out! Someone help me please i can't type messages in the Gamespot forums it says "Messages cannot be blank. Ensure your post contains non-whitespace characters and does not consist solely of formatted or quoted text." This has been happening for like 4 months now and i can't ask for help on the site since i can't fkn write messages to anyone!

[@SpaceRazzer]

I've been playing this game for over 10 hours now, and I can't stop playing. :) The mechanics remind me of Bioshock, and the visuals are just amazing, as well as the facial animations, voice acting, gameplay and story. So far this game has been worth its price. Totally.

[@brushstroke7190]

I prefer the art style of Rage 2011 to Rage 2. Despite a more grounded and drab colour palate, characters had more… character. Rage 2 barely even feels like an apocalypse ever happened.

[@Mezzo396]

@2797DANIEL Have you played the game?

[@gyarreto]

so do i just go around completing jobs ?? or do i actually have choices like in Fallouts ..??

[@TheDragonrage25]

@alexwolff1990 I'm guessing you didn't play it on the pc..

[@nick42701]

@Petey0707 Yes it is, rage has a competitive co-op option, which is similar to Uncharted 2's co-op if you have ever played that game, along with the online multiplayer function.

[@georgepatton8693]

get the "anarchy" edition, it comes with dlc and extras on paper redeem codes

[@ForgetfulPatriot2]

@totetoBT It is but it is very fast paced like Call of Duty, Homefront, and Battlefield. Plus the driving is like Motorstorm with guns on the cars.

[@ovidiu92]

Steam sale ?

[@gescomAE]

I can't decide what to get first. This or dead island. Someone please decide for me.

[@Extrematron]

Did I hear the classic starcraft academy sound effect in there?

[@razorback61]

I loved Rage, and am still hoping for some kind of followup from the same team, perhaps next time without the texture pop-in? I know it's a minor niggle, but it was something that at times really did muddy the stellar presentation.

[@Alacazam777]

@Delta105RUS Controls? If you're talking about the keyboard then I don't follow. Every game has different keyboard controls, and it takes a few hours to get used to a specific game's controls. But then if you play for a while your hands and fingers start cramping up and stuff. And yeah, the graphics and stuff are usually better, but at what price?

[@SpaceRazzer]

@Jahkillian I'm playing it on the PC. Whatever you play it on, it has thesame graphics, gameplay and story. So it's still a brilliant game. The only thing that could get improvement is the texture loading for things close by. You just turn around and you see the textures loading. :p

[@JosephGrutt]

@NifE4HD He just said it doesn't auto save very often. He also implied you can manually save at any time you want, which is fine with me.

[@Khelah10]

@BlackMamba246 it took me 12 hours but I may have missed some stuff. If you are extremely determined to find and do every little thing it would probably take 15.

[@klsx2010]

This game is cheap on PS3 now. Should I get it?

[@artemis7525]

@Delta2357 I'm sure they'll add a lot of DLC.

[@Tapedoniphone]

@Tapedoniphone nv world is a bit smaller but the faction system makes up for it and goes beound

[@TrueGamerLGT]

is it just for PS3 ?

[@MRJxPmosh]

Had this game forever , grinded through the first hour and its picking up , fun stuff

[@Killerknast88]

Is it the money worth buying? :)

[@MTGoddardIOM]

I had a major issue with texture popping and HUD flashing on my AMD graphics card with this game, apparently lots of people had the same issue, and it does make you wonder how much testing the developers really did...

[@CrimzonXDevil]

Wait, so you bag the save system, but you also say that you can save manually. What more could you want than the ability to save manually???

[@CarbonH20Unit]

This review is great but it didn't explain the console differences. PS3 8gig install 1 disc noticeable texture pop in. 360 22gig install 3 discs nearly no pop in but you have to change discs.

[@PAVI259]

@tontsa911 after a patch that released yesterday, the bugs and brokenness of the pc version has been fixed for most, but a small amount of people still find it broken..

[@Absolynth]

Im noticing the textures aren't popping up in these clips.. lucky! :(

[@17thSHIT]

I hope they do a PC only review, they do sometimes.

[@jacob2934]

@ZigZagRunner yeah ik, the melee enemies are always jumpin around evading you bullets and slowly getting closer to you so they can hit you.

[@TheWatzitooya]

I've not finished this game yet, but I'm really impressed with the facial animations...

[@MrJamieb147]

@RCNano Yes I know that id software developed this game but what i'm saying is that rage needed a little bit of bethesda magic to make this great you think they would offer some help being the publisher and all.

[@stevovimy]

Disapointed with dead island, playing deus sex human revolution now. Is this worth getting?

[@SakraRO]

Should I buy Rage or Borderland GOTY ? :\

[@3973555]

@Solitude075 you were talking about how the graphics for rage were better than battlefield 3. I was only commenting on that.

[@walidb123]

i think it would have deserved a 9 with a deeper story to suck you in and maybe some kind of campaign co-op. the characters in it which I've come across were very unique compared to other games in that you can tell alot of work was put into their design and animation. enemy AI was kind of unpredictable at times on the higher difficulty, which is a good thing.

[@DreamSeeker01]

@3973555 How?

[@ChevyJP86]

Thats definitely Michale Ironsides voice for that character at 1:40 looks like an awesome game!

[@ch121no]

@colin8696908 Maybe because they didnt install the game into their system. Its manditory 8gb for the ps3 but optional for the 360. I cant blame them tho because the installation takes up 22gb for the 360.

[@dejasper24]

Yeah i think so to, but ign already confirmed there's going to be a sequel. That makes me happy =D

[@micjellin]

@MrShotgun175 I think that statement only applies to Mac owners.

[@zenznsama]

those clouds are amazing for a game

[@Co11ider]

@MajorRocker1974 But this been in Development for 6 years.

[@MagnusIngemann]

What did he say about the save system? You can save ANYWHERE and anytime you like, Quit the game and start right where you left? What more can you ask for!

[@HumbertoGta]

meu carro desapareceu como faço para ter de volta no jogo rage

[@TheRogueMonk]

@FoodStampBarry the graphic is still same on pc .. there is no secret texture hack... this is a console port period.. i tried all fixes and so on.. and have high end pc
