Rollcage Redux Video Review

[@contrabandresearch8409]

I loved these 90s futuristic racers like Star Wars Episode I: Racer , Extreme-G, and I really enjoy the downbeat vibe of the PS1/PC racer Motorhead.

Hey, I know you've reviews Grid and both Rollcage games, but can you have a look at the PS1 game Firebugs some time? It's another British first party Sony title by the devs, Attention to Detail and it's almost identical to the Rollcage games, just with three wheeled vehicles and a '90s anime vibe. I've only just stumbled across it, but was it Rollcage 3 at some point?

[@asherharmon7217]

I spent countless hours playing rolecage stage 2 with my brothers after purchasing it at a garage sale with a ps1. Highly recommend it! As someone who doesn't like racing games, the fast paced high octane gameplay is addicting.

[@teddyharvester]

This game really makes you feel like you're driving at 400 kph. I find not a lot of racing games do that for me nowadays. Star Wars Racer does the trick too.

[@Ghost_Of_SAS]

I remember when the demo for this game came out on playstation magazine: it was mind-blowing.

[@wbblueye1387]

I still got Rollcage 1 and 2 original for PS1 in my Shelf. I love this Games.

[@Kenshiro3rd]

Own physical copies of both. INCREDIBLE games. 2 had WAY more content.

[@tropixx_xlr1549]

As a big racing game fan myself, I find this game unique and enjoyable!! Redux made it a whole lot better!! I have GRIP for Steam and it is insanely a lot of fun, too bad no one is playing it online!!

[@thatelephant]

I still hope that someone just pops up while looking for other drivers haha

[@ThrdD3gree]

@@thatelephant Grip discord has multiplayer meetups very frequently

[@marko_zaric333]

I played this a long time ago on my ps1. Fun game, good review :)

[@skaruts]

To turn around, just stop the car, turn the wheels and hit the gas. These cars have like a billion horse power. Or if you're in tough terrain, don't panic and don't rush it, just carefully get back on track and then smash the accelerator. If you hate being turned around, play the yellow car (Lenny). It's the strongest, so it resists hits and sticks to the track more easily. You'll still have to master the tracks, and the opponents will still be merciless (especially in the end game in hard), but at least that car gives you a higher chance to keep on track. It's not the fastest (the blue one is), but that doesn't really matter. (EDIT: the yellow car also lands straight more often on jumps.) But if you want a challenge, play the blue car (Tony). It's an amazing car too, as far as I'm concerned. Has like a trillion horse power.

[@skaruts]

I was a massive fan of this game. I didn't know there's a redux, but damn I will get that. The game is quite hard, but it's also really satisfying once you know the tracks. The end game in hard mode can get frustratingly hard, though. GRIP somehow feels kinda lacking to me. I think it has to do with some of the visual effects not being there, like there's no air beams around the car when you get a boost, and the FOV never changes. All of that, in Rollcage, is what gives you a even higher sense of speed. The game seems alright, but...

[@ThrdD3gree]

Wait until you unlock Expert... Holy shit

[@pho3nixinflight]

Reminds me of the old remote controlled car “ricochet”.

[@Kenshiro3rd]

pho3nixinflight yup.

[@BmikroB]

Haven't played it in my childhood, but it sure looks hella fun! Reminds me of another futuristic arcade combat racer, 'Bumper Wars' [2001] (which I spent so much time playing back then, I even skipped the school for it, haha). Oh, the nostalgia :))

[@stirpsromana]

When I discovered this game I was probably less than 10 years old, the first thing I loved from it were the skyboxes, they are epic :)

[@theflipchannel964]

Why in the redux version doesn't play for me the FMV intro game video? 0:01

[@drugon]

Nice review. I wonder if you would like to check and make reviews for such games as VEKTOR 2089 and Blazerush.

[@JopieHaargel]

This shit was my jam on PS1.

[@jeremebp]

This was one of my favourite games as a kid, would play it on my P3 computer with a 4mb video card. I just recently got it running again on a modern computer, and it's still a blast.

[@julianemery718]

It's a pity "grip" didn't stick to the form of this game more, it would've been so cool being able to drive on whatever surface you had access too and drive acrobatics around the other cars.

[@OuhPii]

Loved the PS1 demo back in the day, but sadly was never able to play the full game

[@Cyberbrickmaster1986]

Just bought the physical version off eBay for 15 AU dollars. Now I don't have to worry about owning an illegal copy on my PC!

[@Kousaburo]

Had the demo of the first one back in the day. It was on my to-buy list because it was brilliant. This and Wip3out were my best PS1 racers and I usually don't like racers.

[@pippo17173]

The designs of the cars reminds me of the toy cars I use to have.

[@alroslee6931]

i remember playing this when i was six. Frustrating yes but the game was just so good

[@6uiti]

classic game with good difficulty settings

[@doommaker4000]

This reminds me of some similiar, cheap game where you only raced in pipes (?) with hazards. I believe you also had a mounted weapon. Anyone know its name?

[@interpol007]

Doom Maker cyber speed?

[@KMADR20]

Ballistix

[@pcpeasantsgaming]

Omgggffffff my childhood

[@alejandroramirezojeda7732]

Day dreaming about GRIP ....this is good

[@YouSoSpice]

How's GRIP working out for everyone?

[@skaruts]

I would be as drastic as Gaming Boomer. I haven't played it, but from watching some videos it feels a bit lacking, and not as challenging. I think my disappointment is in part due to the lack of a lot of the visual feedback that Rollcage has.

[@dirktheodale7066]

I had this and G-Police on my Dell Pentium 2 333Mhz PC with an original AGP GPU.... it blew my mind back then the step up!

[@robbyg1232]

damn never thought i would see you guys review rollcage this was the shit in psx days

[@TheFedeGamer99]

Thats not true the redux is just some HD version of the game, i downloaded it on pc the pc version of course and i didnt have any issue with that

[@kowboykalebb]

Rollcage series > Rocket league 😂

[@jeremybriggs6951]

Hey man you are way too generous, The physics in this game is way way frustrating!

[@ThrdD3gree]

Not really. It's very coherent, but you have to practice for sure

[@cathode6252]

Rogue Trip please.

[@POOKISTAN]

Is this not on consoles and, if not - Why?

[@Gamingpastime64]

It's on PlayStation

[@POOKISTAN]

@@Gamingpastime64 Well, I mean the redux (I'm assuming you meant the original was on PS One) - It doesn't appear to be available on PSN, and that's where it really should be: store.playstation.com/en-us/grid/search-game/1?query=rollcage

[@mrmysterious8124]

Can you look at Mario Kart🐢
