    Way better on the switch or pc. The one thing I don't like are the physics in the air and the fact you can get matched with Platinum or Diamond as a silver at times. Still, great game.

    Gioco bellissimo, non mi annoia mai.
    Peccato che ogni season sia praticamente uguale, è da anni che aspetto le mappe workshop anche su PlayStation

    Fun and addictive. Nothing groundbreaking about this game, but there is nothing wrong with it either. It's fun and very competitive, easy to pick up and enjoy, but hard to master, fast-paced but also requires team work.. etc. I don't even like soccer, but soccer with cars? closest thing to a soccer game I'll ever play/watch, and it is well worth the admission fee.

    Pros:
    A game about pure fun
    Makes sports fun
    Robust ranking system

    Cons:
    Skill curve can be sharp
    Since the game is competitive it attracts horrible people
    Voice chat can be annoying

    As far as 20 dollar games go, this is close to a 10. But this game is fun enough to compare to the best of them so I rate it as a premium game. It's a driving game and a sports game melded together. So gratifying to get a last second goal or a dramatic save. If you have the slightest suspicion that you will like this game, you probably will.

    Soccer and Cars, some of my most favorite things in the world, and rocket league combines them brilliantly. This game is pure fun, it looks great, plays great and am so glad they put in split screen. What is a bummer is that the servers are really laggy and you there could have been some more modes or some sort of penalty shoot out if a game ends up a draw.

    A great, quick and addictive arcade esport.
    Easy to understand, incredibly tough to master.
    Cars + rockets + soccer = FUN

    A must, with a low price (0 for who had psplus some month ago, still a good price for new players.)

    Rocket League is a fun game to play with friends. My best friend described it best: "an emotional rollercoaster at every turn." It's a game with depth and longevity, which will save its sometimes shallow gameplay.

    A exceedingly fun game with a great amount of customization. The game could use a few more games modes instead of just the one but it till serves to be fun enough. I have had connection issues online on the PS4 but not on the PC version. Worth a pick up but more content should be added so it doesn't become stale soon.

    It's a very fun little competitive game. Once you get to learn the mechanics, you can really turn this game into a complicated struggle against other players online. Anyone who's played this game can at least tell you it runs, plays, looks great. The rest comes down to whether this game is for you.

    Simple game of knocking a ball into the goal with a car but can be so much fun when playing with a friend. it is a really good game and anyone can get the hang of it. Getting it for free on ps plus was a bonus too.

    This is one hell of a fun game. Everybody who says indie titles are crap should give it a try.
    It could be a bit more diversified - I would love some power-ups or even weapons. Maybe some grease spots or something. Also the ball sometimes acts really unnaturaly (it hits the corner and hangs in ther for god knows how long), and the camera is actually not really helping to see what is

Rocket league is soccer or futbol for the rest of the world with rc cars. you can create parties with your friends when it works duel in 1 v 1, 2 v 2, 3 v 3, and a hectic 4 v 4 this games wasn’t designed to be anything but pure fun, no challenge, just fun and very simple.

    duel in 1 v 1, 2 v 2, 3 v 3, and a hectic 4 v 4
    this games wasn’t designed to be anything but pure fun,
    no challenge, just fun and very simple.
    Anyone can hop in and instantly understand how to play
    there is a season mode with various difficulties to choose from where you try to win the championship from ai controlled opponents and partners.
    If your team isn’t full by time the match starts online, you are also teamed up with ai partners.
    The ai however can occasionally do more harm than good, hitting the ball in the wrong net, and overly just not aggressive enough when it comes to taking shots to be all too helpful
    I understand that this is to prevent ai teams from being over powered, but when youre the one stuck with the ai team, it can be a little frustrating.
    Match making is great though, even if you have a crappy connection, matches are a breeze to get into
    if you find yourself getting your but handed to you, there is a training mode to teach you have to effectively use your boosts and tricks, and how to effectively make shots and block shots as a goalie.
    The game features 11 cars and thousands of combinations to make your rocket car yours
    however I find it highly annoying that you cant customize each car individually.
    your settings carry over to each car, which sucks considering each cars style is different and has its own personality.
    it sucks having to go in and change things every time you want to drive a new car.
    Also good or bad depending how you look on it, all cars handle the same.
    there are no perks to use to your advantage.
    everybody goes into each match steroid free.
    A very even playing field.
    There a few minor annoyances such as ai and a few pretty big annoyances such as party creation not always working and customization not sticking to individual cars.
    but overall Rocket League is a really fun and addictive game to play both online or at home with a friend
    for what it is

    Very addictive experience. By far one of the most fun games the PS4 has to offer. The only problem is that sometimes the online servers do not function that well.

    This game was alot of fun. There isnt much in terms of objectives other than to put the giant ball into the opposing teams goal. And sometimes, thats all you need to do in life. Its easy to boot up and get involved in some quick games to relieve stress or to go on a rocket league marathon. The graphics and gameplay are great. Car customization is good, but could be improved.

    This game really shines in multiplayer. And by multiplayer, i mean having your friends online to play with/against. Its hilarious or competitive depending on what you prefer. Only comment I have is that if your not very good (like me) after a while it can feel like it lacks depth in options/customization/single player seasons. Also the trophies were very easy, and could easily be boosted.

    If you're looking for a fun, repeatable, competitive, sporting experience on console, and FIFA doesn't take your fancy, give Rocket League a try. Football may not be for everyone, but who doesn't love flying, super charged, remote control cars?

    Rocket League is imaginative, fun and breath of fresh air. To see something completely new in the gaming world come off so well is great to see. How ironic that a ball game involving jumping cars outdoes this years FIFA instalment.

    This is what a sports game should be!! Rocket league was a huge surprise. When I saw it on the Playstation plus free games list I scratched my head becuse I had no clue what it was. I am so glad I downloaded it because this game is so addicting. Im not giving it a ten or nine yet because the server issues can be terrible some times. Great game!

    Pros: Divertidisimo. Muy resultón visualmente. Aunque no lo parezca, la mecánica sabe premiar tanto al novato como al más experimentado.

    Contra: Personalmente, la inexistencia de atributos en los diferentes coches.

    Rocket League is an immensely fun game, centred around the concept of cars playing a giant game of football, that I originally got with PS Plus in July. I, along with many of my friends, were originally skeptical of the game, but eventually warmed to its fun gameplay!

    Single-player is great in itself, with the AIs' of some of your opponents testing your skills. That said, the multiplayer mode takes the game into a whole new dimension in itself, with fun co-op play testing your teamwork skills and even sometimes destroying friendships! The amount of customisation in the game is also mind-blowing, with the player able to choose from a wide selection of vehicles, make them whatever colour they want, add fun and quirky accessories and much more!
    Rocket League has also frequently been updated with DLC, adding new pitches and vehicles, all of which are reasonably priced.
    The game is a great play with very little negatives, and with an Xbox One version in the works and set to release in early 2016, more people will get to enjoy this fantastic game!

    This is probably the shortest review I will ever give, but Rocket League is the perfect example of, sometimes, less is more. Cars playing football, simple, fun, and hugely effective.

    The developers could have tried to be too clever, making it available to edit the cars to improve speed or strength, but this would probably leave the game unbalanced and slightly unfair. The simplicity is

    It's a blast to play and it only gets better as skills improve over time and as the competition ramps up. It's a game that everyone, whether they’re big into sports video games or just can’t seem to get into them, will really enjoy.

    I have no problem saying that this is the best and most original sports game I have played since at least FIFA 12. It mixes all the best elements of sports and online multiplayer games into one in an affordable and seamless experience that looks awesome in YouTube videos as well.
