Grand Theft Auto
I have to say, I was surprised by just how good this game is. In the blurry screenshots on the store page, it comes across as archaic to the point of being down right unplayable, but it is, in fact, a full formed Grand Theft Auto game. Each style of car drives differently and sports the fake radio stations this series has become known for. Those stations are a little too limited for the amount of time you’ll be driving around; it’s like one song plus a commercial per car theme, but as long as you’re sure to switch between styles frequently they won’t cross into obnoxious territory.

I never got to play the first game in the series back int he day, even though I did manage to get my hands on the PlayStation version. I guess since my first ever introduction to the GTA series was already in the 3D universe I got a bit put off by the less story-driven 2D games. Now I see this was quite a fun experience. But still, I would hardly call it my favorite, and can only muster up enough to say it’s just a bit underwhelming.
First of all, it’s the very reason this was pulled out of Steam: you can only run the game once. For some reason, the port changes a file type after you play a level that makes it so when it tries to read it again to start a new level the games simply crashes. You literally had to make a backup of the original file and manually replace it every time you wanted to play or look for a 3rd party program that fixes the file before launching the game and, if you wanted steam to properly read your game time like me, make a custom exe that would replace the original one so steam knew when you launched the game. It’s a similar experience to playing Fallout Fixit, but there the vanilla game works even if you don’t want the extra fixes, here it’s mandatory if you want to play and just that is enough to get a negative review as an experience since it would just be better to get the original PC version or even the PlayStation one.

Carmageddon 2: Carpocalypse Now
Intro
Loved this game for ages, but the flaws are evident and have really stopped me from enjoying it as much lately. It’s unique and you’re not going to get a similar experience from many other games. If it weren’t for the gameplay flaws,
this game would be my second favourite Carmageddon, but they’re just too big to miss.
The Great:
++Destruction looks amazing. It’s as good as Max Damage.
++Base gameplay is so much fun. Like the first game, except improved in every single way (except where it didn’t)

This game is the most epically entertaining way to waste your readily rather spent hours of a short life. What makes this game good then:
- Still pretty nice damage physics. Seriously. Game is nearly two decades old yet has dynamic deformation of cars, no premodeled damage. You can even split vehicles in half, at any angle..and yet even keep driving depending on how you got split. It’s also cool how your driving is handicapped by getting damage. If your engine takes damage, car accelerates slower. If powertrain takes damage, your car will start braking randomly inadvertently. If your wheels get damage, they’ll wobble and make your car lean constantly to the given side when driving and steering will become harder. If suspension takes damage, your car will steer randomly on it’s own.

Midnight Driver
At first play this game wasn’t very intoxicating but after unlocking the first car and first map and learning how well the controls felt even on a keyboard I think this game is really amazing. I see a lot of potential in this game and that is in no way an indirect way of stating the devs haven’t already done and absolutely fantastic job, There are still many things I would like to see such as car tuning and/or colouring as well as some music to race with.

Pc was made for games like these. If you play these games with a competitive spirit there’s no time for you to back down. It seems simple and easy to pass on from its indie background but it really wants to create a fun racing game that takes you down fast paced mountain passes that leave you begging for a faster time with each run. Playing online takes it to a new level, whether that involves racing for blood with your car on the line, drifting in tandem as you barely trade paint, or causing complete chaos as you dive into a hairpin to flip your opponent’s car. Of course things can be added, but I don’t think that makes this game bad. The tracks each have their unique feel and makes mastering your favorite car even more fun as you take it to each mountain, although I’ll always keep Haru close to my heart. I want to spit on those that left bad reviews, because each one had a worse excuse than my steam refunds. If you want to see a game grow you need to give it love and support, just like the stylish cars you’ll drive in this game. The physics are smooth and intuitive making this a great time killer if you want to get in some practice runs on a rainy day, or spend all night practicing the same down hill to break a friend’s record… you don’t feel jipped by constant bugs, as they’re being fixed over time. So if you like racing, cars, drifting, breathing, or getting your adrenaline rush as you crush records buy this game. Just do it already c’mon… seriously I played all night c’mon… c’mon

Kazakh Drive
This is an endurance racer: You have to drive for an hour or so without crashing to pass the first task. The apparent best strategy is pretty mindless: drive on the shoulder, keep your wipers on all the time, and spray fluid when the windshield gets dusty. The oncoming traffic lane is way too risky to use because you can’t usually see if it’s clear.
I do want to like this game, and certain improvements could make me recommend it:
1. controller support
2. some kind of meaningful decision to make while driving. There needs to be some reason I shouldn’t just drive on the shoulder to pass.

This is one of the best games here on Steam. Scenario, game play - everything is just great. A lot of possibilities to discover, I’ve just started the game, but I already decided to spend the entire weekend playing Kazakh Drive for the sake of Uncle Eldos. You know, boards can’t bring themselves on their own.
Best regards and ALGA

Drift Long Racing
This is the 15th review of the Steam Redlight series, a series where I purposely seek out negatively or controversially rated games on Steam to see if they’re as bad as the Internet says they are. It’s accompanied by a video review that can be found here .
In summary, I can’t recommend this game, it’s just not very fun. I was able to essentially master the core gameplay mechanic of racking up the combo counter for drifts after 33 minutes of gameplay, and I just couldn’t lose after that. It’s also accompanied by discrepancies between the About This Game, the Early Access Description, and the game itself as well as the every single soundtrack prematurely cutting out halfway through to start the next. This game is also just a more barebones branch of the developer’s previous game Retrowave Need for Speed Drift… so, I’d say just get that, but that’s not even really a recommendation.

Drift Racer
Not a bad driftracer with good graphics and music however it can be very repetitive for most people.
But the controls are very nice on the Xbox 360 controller (they fixed that issue long time ago)
I would to see a top view that’s a little bit further in the sky cause all that turning makes me a little bit dizzy.
Also some extra soundtracks.
And give us achievements.
But for the rest it’s an ok game.

Rise: Race The Future
HELLO! I have been waiting what feels my entire life to write this review and i cannot wait.
So about a year ago i found this game and i fell in love. It has so many things i like about it. For starters its a racing game that just feels really good. I dont like games that make me feel like im driving in a straight line all the time. This game has excellent level design. And the way the cars feel is unheard of. The steering feels so touchy when u first play it but once u get the hang of it its perfect. I really enjoy all the play i get with my controller while driving. I can get fancy with my stick movement, my gas and brake, and the handbrake is amazing. Some games the handbrake dosent feel right but here it has alot of respect from me.

System and Setup:
Windows 10 64bit
Intel Core i9 10900K
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER
LG 27inch 1440p 144hz monitor 27GN850-B
Oculus Quest 1
The game ran with max settings at 1440p, 144fps on the monitor without any notable issues. No complaints about VR either.
Opinion:
-
The near-future car designs are nice.
-
VR mode works well, even if there’s no proper cockpit view. A hood cam is the best you’ll get.
-
Despite the store page not pointing it out, it does support cloud saves.
- No Achievements/Trophies
