    A pathetic game, with crappy controls, disturbing sexual cutscenes, unpolished textures, broken sound effects, and a storyline that doesn't make any sense. I'd rather throw my money into a hole instead of spending them to a disgrace to gaming and bikers all around the world.

    Easily the best game of 2013. The wacky antics and hilarious character interaction easily blows comparable titles like The Bureau out of the water. Most fun I've had in months.

    Let's be honest. Weak, bad or even tragic games exist, but this time, something enigmatic happened. Probably everyone who played this game is now wetting the bed at at night. I'm no different.

I'm no different.

    Let's start off with who is responsible for this crap. Well, the game was developed by Eutechnyx, but they are not that guilty, because the game received most injury from Deep Silver. These morons didn't give time for Eutechnyx to finish the game properly. A perfect example that rush gives birth of s***.

    On paper, the game might look good (truly, even way better than Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing), the main menu is climatic to the Harley lovers, but this fades out after taking a look into options. Very little to do out here and I have even found out that most stuff can only be modified through the .config file in game directory. It's too annoying to sweep through pile of code just to find something like screen resolution. What about in-game options. Too simple. Brightness, volume, mouse sensitivity and...vibration?

    Fight system in this hyper-crappy, game-like thing is limited to the use of two keys, until our fingers will bruise. There's even a kick, useful to send antagonists into the coffins, but it takes senseless 30 seconds of raping one key. Developers also gave us a finisher move available after taking out certain amount of opponents, which was intended to be effective. The problem is, the animation is as long as the time it takes to make a tea and it's always the same. There's also a block, but it's as useful as comb for the bald man. I used it once in a fight against bigger fist-fighter. Apart from that it could be useful to flee the groups of enemies unharmed.

    Shooting is truly a problem. Of course we got variety of weaponry, but the shooting itself is a tumor on the butt. Maybe the aim is hitscan friendly and LMB has its function, but some idiot thought that shooting on PC is too simple. Aiming gives the feeling of using honey coated mouse. Attacking moving targets is impossible.

    Thinking of NASCAR 2013, what about the driving model in RTH? Difficult in every aspect. Riding a motorbike resembles riding a brick loaded wheelbarrow on a stone crossroads. There's no way not to ride without a crash. Powerside is completely useless.

    Artificial intelligence is dramatic. Unarmed enemies move towards protagonist not giving the damn to the fact that they are about to die, often getting stuck on walls. Enemies are also very kind. When we fight with one, others will patiently wait for their turn. In firefights they stand still, only waiting for their portion of lead. Even on the roads, they often disappear along with the bikes they rode. It seems like they didn't want to be in this game.

    Graphics are disgusting, although the game works on Unreal Engine 3, which has over 7 years, but is still very good when in hands of professionals. Here we got saturation and blur non-corresponding, which seems to be more or less a test game made in this engine. Lipsync and special effects are as effective as farting mosquito. Only models look somewhat good.

    Apart from the low quality sound effects or even bit lame music, the only thing that caused most pain to my ears is voice acting. People were probably recorded in a cellar. They don't give any feeling to their role. And this is not just bad voice acting; it's the worst voice acting in the galaxy.

    And now it's time for the most important. Bugs and errors. And not just little bugs. No way. In this game there are bugs on bugs riding on bugs. Problems with movement and sprint button is not enough. Enemies that launch into the air after getting a headshot; also not enough. Animation freezing and broken quicktime events; dammit. Even sometimes during a finisher I was beating a thin air instead of a fellow biker. Once I even succeeded in falling off the map.

    Overall, Ride to Hell: Retribution is one of very few titles where title is also a description in a nutshell. This game is literally ride to hell. Software hell, where Deep Silver staff should be sent along with Eutechnyx dragging it. Everything broken, even technical layout. Shame for humanity. This game was probably made for sponges that can soak any kind of s*** this game offers. I will never play this game again. Seriously.    … Expand

    Possibly the worst game I have ever seen in a VERY long time. I'm not sure who actually let this game get released as it's probably got the developers a terrible reputation. I would advise that NO-ONE buys this game unless it is to laugh in it's face.

    This game is a pathetic time waster that made me buy a second console version, just so I could microwave it and leave it to die on my driveway. This was a game that no one expected to be good and completely meets those ass level standards. First of all I think that we should talk about the gameplay, which must take some award for having some of the worst combat that I've seen in a game.This game is a pathetic time waster that made me buy a second console version, just so I could microwave it and leave it to die on my driveway. This was a game that no one expected to be good and completely meets those ass level standards. First of all I think that we should talk about the gameplay, which must take some award for having some of the worst combat that I've seen in a game.

    Step 1: Shoot the gun wielding enemies with guns from behind cover. This will be incredibly easy considering that this whole "cover" thing is something that only works for people with a camera following them.

    Step 2: Get some easy headshots on melee focused enemies who run towards you in single file, like you're an ice cream man with bullet flavored frozen treats for them all.

    Step 3. Walk through an empty room littered with instant kill melee areas that you realize were for you. Then think "oh was I supposed to be fighting them in here?

    The next thing I need to touch on are the horrible motorcycle sections that just shows how lazy the programmers were. How lazy you ask? Well lazy enough for you to continuously go forward and give you the inability to back up, and if you hit an obstacle you get spat back out onto an earlier area of road. If that wasn't bad enough then there are the things that are intended to be sex scenes, but that word doesn't cut it. How can a sex scene not be a sex scene? Well first of all, you need to take off your clothes, but RTH: Retribution feels like it should be innovative and play penetration noises and make Jack still thrust while fully clothed. I mean really! If you don't want your audience to see Jack's big bare ass then put them under the blankets or do what Mass Effect did and make the screen fade to black!

    At the end of the day RTH: Retribution is my favorite kind of bad that makes me laugh for days in ways I should tell my psychologist about. It's none of that some things are good some are bad type of game, it's just all bad, all the time and I think you should buy it to just see how the game is and laugh afterwards.    … Expand

The graphics are alright in some places, but absolutely terrible in many more. The games mechanics are super clunky and unresponsive. The game also lacks visual and audible feedback letting you know if you're doing something right or wrong. Sound is by far the worst part of this game. It lacks a lot of sound effects, and the ones that it does have are awful. For example, this is a biker game. One of the key points of a biker game is the motorcycle. The bikes in this game literally sound like weed wackers. The game's ONE redeeming factor is the music, only because they use proprietary licenses instead of in-house music. The one redeeming factor, however, doesn't matter if music isn't played. Many a level I went through without music ever playing. Checkpointing is piss poor, story is uninspired, combat is bad, multiplayer is boring. Just don't buy this game. This is an example of a quickly put together game made solely for profit.… Expand

    You can try out Ride to Hell for some masochistic fun. Low-budget games are built by throwing some concepts together without much thought - Ride to Hell is exactly that, but much more expensive. Interesting story, cool characters, freedom, original missions, great fighting system, exciting chases and heavy guitar riffs - none of that is here. Ride to Hell: Retribution is damaged in such a way, that you start thinking: what were the developers drinking/smoking?
