    Fun so much fun Combining elements of Twisted Metal and GTA. This needs a remake because this game was on fire. This is an instant classic and a gem. The soundtrack is sweet too.

    other than the terrible main missions which are basically 'follow this guy around'
    it's surprisingly fun as hell its fun to pick a fight its fun to fight the police its fun to play the side missions
    it's fun to go inside a tornado
    and the collectibles are fun and rewarding to find and they are not hard or easy they are perfectly placed in the end its a hidden gem

    If you enjoy Twisted Metal Black 'AND' GTA then you'll love this game if you only like GTA, then you'll be dissapointed, it's more Twisted Metal with elements of GTA in it. If you enjoy both games, then this is a 9 out of 10 game for you.

    Something needs to be said up front - this game isn't mature. If you've often thought videogame women needed to be more expedable, and were confused by the twists and turns of any given Grand Theft Auto plot, then welcome aboard. Crank up the music, skip past the cinemas (you won't miss a thing), and make the hero drive through hookers like you're satan's Something needs to be said up front - this game isn't mature.

Crank up the music, skip past the cinemas (you won't miss a thing), and make the hero drive through hookers like you're satan's lawnmower - there are no consequences. For those who can look past the 12 year old serial killer in training mentality, the gameplay is vintage car combat jousting. Rogue Trip vets may have more than a few flashbacks. Expand

    "Roadkill" is surprisingly fun, despite being one of the most unoriginal games ever. The combat is pure "Twisted Metal" (although not nearly as good), while the presentation- the soundtrack, the characters, even the text boxes- SCREAM "GTA." In fact, this game is the biggest "GTA" rip-off I've ever played, and that includes "True Crime."

The main missions are good (although the story is "eh" at best), but the sidemissions really make the game great. I got it about a year ago for $8 or so on eBay, and you should get it, too. It's actually quite worth it. Expand

    The game is very repetitive and difficult, but it has good graphics and good destruction physics. But nothing impressive

    It's incredible how nasty and trashy this gameplay looks, when something very similar looked so great. There are a lot of really nice touches here, but they're wasted on a game that feels like a high school talent show version of a great movie.

    Doubts aside, if you're after a quality shoot-'em-up that's as filthy as you like then Roadkill is for you.
  3. Good mindless fun, but don’t expect an incredibly deep game. Also, it is VERY mature, so beware.
