Good ol' Carmageddon is back
Max Damage pays tribute to the classic previous entries in the series and adds more. Problems aside with the then freshly kickstarted game paved the way to one of the most solid games in the genre which is MD. Spectacular visuals (I'm not into this frenetic madness of measuring and comparing like a buffoon but in this case the 60fps pc is the way to go and I say it personally), precise violent and fast paced gameplay, classic characters and newer ones somehow add to the nostalgia which is so important to us GOG fans, without spoiling big time for the new players. One could effortlessly dig this without ever touching any other Carmageddon game.
The OST is... a bit meh, somehow a tad generic (reminds me of some 90s rock tunes feature in games such as Twisted Metal) but nonetheless passable. Not taking any stars for that, nope, but thing's could've been amazingly different since we had one of the greatest metal soundtracks ever made in Carma 2; oh, this one rewards us for being open world friendly and explorers much like the first and second games, so no worries on that.
As a fan I know I gotta put this passion aside and be more accurate but... MAN at this price it's an easy pickup. Lots to do, multiplayer is gorgeous and yes, Stainless Games nailed it: it's the first good entry that fits amazing with a controller, so props to them. Kickstarter fans gotta be proud regarding this one.
