This is a disappointing game set in a post-apocalyptic, Mad Max-style world. The driving gameplay is alright, albeit laggy, but the on-foot gameplay on roads is harder than wrestling an alligator, and just as pointless. If you want a better post-apocalyptic game I would stick with the fallout series, Borderlands (alright not really post-apocalyptic but it feels like it), or even that Mad Max game on the NES I reviewed before.

Other Post-Apocalyptic games to check out...or instead: Final Fantasy VI (Final Fantasy III), the aforementioned Fallout series, Chrono Trigger, Infamous series, S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

Other awful/bad games I've reviewed: Animal Hunter 3D, The Curse of Plum Mountain, Sword of Sodan, Taz-Mania, Air Control, Plastic Surgery Simulator, Hong Kong 97, Circuit Chung, Crimelife 2, The Mummy (PSX), City Racing, Facade, Pizza Dude, A Small Car, Mary-Kate & Ashley Magical Mystery Mall, The Restaurant (PC), Bungee Jumping Simulator, Barbie Explorer (PS1), Virtual Part (Genesis), Hotdog King, Iceberg Explorer, Superman 64, Mission Runway, Barbie Super Sports (PS1), Zombie Slap, Pickup Racing, Baby Boomer (NES), Extreme Drive, Tarzan Guardian of Earth, Back Alley Brawl, 18 Wheels of Steel American Long Haul, Bubsy 3D, Silent Assault (NES), Toilet Tycoon, Trucker 2, The Simpsons Wrestling (PS1), In the Dark (PC), Time Lord (NES), CSI: NY (PC), MegaRace 3, Garbage Truck Simulator, Planet of the Apes (PS1), Another (PC), Frankestein (Genesis), Packy and Marlon (SNES), Rex Ronan (SNES), Blaster Simulator, The Grinch (PS1), Deathknell, The Forge, Battle Los Angeles (PC), Evil Dead (PS1), Desert Bus, batman: Gotham City Racer (PS1), Chicks Gone Wild, Swamp Thing (NES), Independence Day (Playstation), Ride! Carnival Tycoon (PC), Gods (Genesis), Hooters Road Trip (PS1), Singles Flirt Up Your Life (PC), Mad Truckers, 2Xtreme (PS1), and many MANY more.
Why listen to me over bigger post-apocalyptic heroes like IGN, Gamespot, Gamespy, Giant Bomb, Destructoid, or GameTrailers? Well, I don't just review games from the eyes of a technical, professional Roland Deschain. I also review games from the perspective of an actual Kevin Costner.
