    Overall, Road Redemption is a brilliantly fun spiritual successor to the Road Rash series, and absolutely exceeded my expectations. Its exhilarating, and surprisingly tactical gameplay compensate for lackluster visuals and a few environmental collision issues. Road Redemption is an absolute blast to play, and I thoroughly recommend it.

    Honestly, if you’re a fan of Road Rash you really must check Road Redemption out. Fast, brutal and huge amounts of fun, it hits all the right notes to make it an unmissable slice of arcade racing with an abundance of combat. It looks nice, has a rocking soundtrack and a surprising amount of depth. A Road Rash fan really couldn’t ask for more.

    Road Redemption's flaws seem irrelevant next to the raw amusement it offers. From its rogue-like campaign to its online or split-screen multiplayer, it is an incredibly successful spiritual successor to Road Rash and a worthy remastering of that carefree 90s Arcade gameplay.

    For as much as I loved Road Rash, it would be hard to go back to after playing Road Redemption. This feels like the worthy successor Road Rash has always deserved. It was a little gem of a series lost in time; the only thing missing is the corny FMV cutscenes.

    Spiritual successor it may be, but Road Redemption does one thing very differently: unlike Road Rash, it offers a roguelike experience with procedurally generated mini-campaigns. [Issue#226, p.56]

    Road Redemption, despite having a few flaws, nonetheless impresses with its sound gameplay mechanics, strong customization system, and great performance.

    The spiritual successor of Road Rash, Road Redemption, offers tons of unadulterated fun. Many may find its driving too Arcady for their taste, but the rogue-like campaign experience and the tense off-road battles reward the player. The beautiful OST and a very nice old school oriented couch co-op give the game some extra lift.

    A scrappy tribute to the long-lost Road Rash series whose raw spirit just about overcomes its shortcomings.

This is a grate homage to Road Rash, anyone who played it should give this a "spin".

    It was like i could feel a great maschine vibrating in my pants, even thou i wasn't actually sitting on a Motorcycle. I could feel something poke into my back when chat was riding backseat gaming.

    Lots of replayability with the experience and lots of insta gratification with the campaign currency.    … Full Review »

    My personal opinion, the game is not OK.
    - Graphics is like CS:Source. It's not beautiful but take too much system resource while running.
