In the 17 years since the last Road Rash came out on the original PlayStation, few games have managed to replicate the fun of its madcap brand of motorcycle mayhem. Road Redemption gives recapturing that feeling an honest go, and while the moment-to-moment combat racing does a great job, its lack of variety and polish leaves much to be desired.
Pulling up alongside a rival biker and duking it out with wrenches, pool cues, shovels and swords is simple, yet wildly fun. One button attacks left, one right, another blocks and parries and one just sends a kick towards whoever’s closest - and while this handful of commands may seem uncomplicated, combat can be surprisingly (and satisfyingly) challenging. This is largely thanks to the substantial arsenal available to you- apart from the aforementioned melee weapons, you can also acquire various explosives and firearms (though shooting and steering is difficult at times) - and the tactics required to defeat each of the limited roster of enemy types. For instance, you need to use a blunt melee weapon to knock off an opponent’s helmet before attempting a decapitation with a sword, and the tactical elimination of certain enemies to recover health or boost fuel required an unexpected bit of strategy, especially during shorter races.
