Mad Max

This game shocked me by how good it is, you can customize your ride clear encampments scout out areas drive around kill people. You can drink water and collect it which I found really cool (most games don't let you do that). Even the combat is great. Don't even get me started on the visuals the sudden nuclear sandstorms the creepy underground slave stuff going on in the background man this game surprised me. This is the most underrated open-world game I have ever played.

I'd like to keep it short...

This good piece of work is VERY underestimated!

This game was giving me about 100 hours of good gaming time. The graphics are up-to-date (about 2015/2016). It's easy to understand, the game mechanic easy to learn. And I like the kind of storytelling (it fits quite well into Mad Max lore).

And most important; It's just fun to play!

So I think, it became a low-price title with a decent good content. You'll get a lot of fun, for just a few dollar.

Now if like me, you love the Mad Max movie franchise, this will obviously peak your interest. So many years, the franchise of movie based games has been very poor and fallen on hard times. RAMBO the video game could have been SO much better, so you can be forgiven for thinking that this Mad Max game will be lacklustre. However you would be VERY wrong. Avalanche Studios and Warner Bros have crafted a great game and i say this after playing this game NON-STOP for a whole week. My family lost me for a long while because this game is involving. I became addicted to it for that whole week. Literally the whole week. I myself LOVE Mad Max (both the franchise and the game) The game brings everything we love about the Mad Max films and ramps it up like they did with Fury Road. This game is set after Fury Road where Max is brought in by the warring factions to rid themselves of a tyrant called Lord Scrotus (no seriously that is his name) after Max's beloved car the Interceptor is stolen and Max is left for dead. From here he meets Chumbucket (again, that is his name) who is a real whizz with mechanics and cars (and he helps you supe up your new car, the Magnum Opus.

For here on, YOU do what you want. Want to supe up the car first, find and smash up any convoys or rampaging Warboys so steal their scrap and use it for your own personal use to make you machine almost unstoppable. Everything is available to upgrade from tires, to exhausts, to spikes. As well as some particularly fun vehicular manslaughter, there is a chance to get out of your car and busts some heads, jaws, arms etc in the marked camps where something or someone nasty is always lurking and waiting to bust your head open if you aren't fast enough. Once you get the hang of the block system (the combat system is pretty much like Batman Arkham Knight and that's not a bad thing) you can really go to town on these rabbles and their top dog which awards you with their colour of your car. Although some colours look absolutely hideous, Also you can upgrade yourself to become the bad-ass of the game. The Wastelands open world is VAST, there is so much to do. From Death Races (yes it is what you think) to defuse minefields with your trusty dog Dinky Di which help lower the threat level of the territory ( and lower theses and you got the best rewards) The game itself is comprised of wasteland missions (which are side missions) and the main story that is unfortunately not that long. My advice would be to do the wasteland missions first, smash a few convoys and then finish the story, that way you get some great upgrades before the finale (which you will need) The whole experience was fun, intense and sometimes heart-wrenching. There was only one level that seriously infuriated me and that was the race with Stank Gum who cheats at every opportunity by sending his cronies to stop you at every available opportunity (bu ramming you, throwing thundersticks and even boiling oil as well as handing bombs.

This game has everything: Brutal hand to hand combat that is satisfying. Vehicular manslaughter which again is satisfying when you get rammed off the road the first couple of times. Ah, revenge is sweet. An involving story and some heartache and a game you'll want to play again just to finish all the camps, enhance the strongholds (which give great rewards), get the convoys and defuse the minefields, then the world is yours to do as you please, for scenic drives around the wasteland or lie in wait of a rampaging Warboy/war-boys to smash to smithereens.

All in all, i recommend this 100% to anyone who loves the Mad max movies because this is a blast and fun to play. The only reason i never gave this a five star is because the story itself was short.

I for one, would LOVE to see a sequel to this game.

This one was never made to become a classic. This one was made to entertain. And it does not disappoint.

The only objective in the game is to strengthen and improve Max's car Magnum Opus. This may sound uninteresting, but trust me after the first few hours it would become your obsession.

The graphics are sleek. Looks quite stunning in PS4 versions. But the best part is the game play. It is fun and the fist fights dont become boring even after hours and hours of gameplay. There is option for Max to learn new skills as you progress and when Max is in a rage you really really feel the adrenaline rush.

The driving is perhaps the best part of the game. The car mechanics are admirable.

Overall this game shall not disappoint you. In my opinion this one went quite underestimated. It had the potential to do far far better.

This game was AWESOME! The world was bleek and believable. The vehicles were fun to drive and easy to control. The graphics were awesome for the time and the car combat was epic!

The personal combat system was really easy and brutal.

I did not like the boss system for the big camps however. Each boss looked identical. (Though splatted with different colors that you unlock upon their defeat.) It was abandoned shortly after release and had no dlc unfortunately...WORTH A BUY!!
