    Renegade Ops is a good game, its good ol fashion arcade style. The graphics are good for a top view game, controls for pc are ok, managable anyway but the game is best played with a pc xbox controller (which i dont have but tryed it at a friends). I give this game a 7 because the music i didnt even notice cuz it really had no theme to the game.

I give this game a 7 because the music i didnt even notice cuz it really had no theme to the game. The gameplay can be frustrating since the vehicles slide all over and sometimes get stuck in places. and the upgrade system is pretty weak for example sometimes the first upgrade is far better than the last in a certain row, which was kinda wierd. Lastly the games replayability isnt really there...Difficulty is right in terms of easy medium and hard, story is good considering what the game is, ya thats it.

    WARNING: dont buy this off Steam, took me hours of work to get it running correctly, read the forums there if u dont believe me, lots are having the same problems....

    Renegade Ops is fun on the normal difficulty, hardcore difficulty just ends up beinga frustrating time. A scoring system and level up system adds to replay value though two-thirds of the unlocks are the same thing for all the different drivers. The combat is fun and there are tactical elements that are implemented such as enemies taking more damage if you shoot at them from behind.

The combat is fun and there are tactical elements that are implemented such as enemies taking more damage if you shoot at them from behind. The grahpics are also very nice and the explosions and destruction looks very good. The controls, though, are not that good, especially with a mouse and keyboard. The way the levels are designed and how you can only move in 8 directions, you are often running into walls or off cliffs. There is also no way to go in reverse, if you want to turn around your car has to go forward and then turn all the way around. This is very frustrating when you are on the edge of a fire pit or are i na narrow hallway and your character will be unable to turn around and will just skid along the wall. Some of the enemies really seem to be a bit over powered, especially rocket trucks and the difficulty significantly increases when you reach the final level. Overall it was a fun little game and is worth ~10 hours of gameplay. Expand

    This game have have nice graphics and story but it's controls are n't good much. It needs special game-pad and keyboard control is so bad, specially vehicle controls. Steering controls changing by vehicle rotation!! forward can be steer to left or right and backward become forward by vehicle rotation!!! the must awful control i ever seen in any game. It's good only with a good game-pad.

    Say explosions. Say big guns. Say over the top kick-ass action. Say Renegade Ops. The top-down vehicle-based shooter puts a smile on your face if you grew up watching the action films from the 1980s. Havoc, destruction and mayhem – renegade operations have never been this entertaining before. [Feb 2012]

    Substantial portion of this fast paced action comes with great technical performance and offers an enjoyable 4-man cooperative mode. Main campaign would deserve longer duration though. [Christmas 2011]

    A bit outdated and a simple shooter game, bringing a few hours of an entertaining, action ride though. Still, there is a need for this type of game!
