    Meh, it would be funner if it wasn't so frustrating. I've been stuck on a boss battle 18 races now. The police are like gnats, just annoying and ruin what would be a fun racing experience. They don't go after your competitors and your competitors' bikes defy gravity and wave effects way better than you. Every time you lose they suggest upgrading my bike but my bikes already maxed.

There's plenty of variety and gameplay where no levels have to be so f*ing frustrating and difficult. I'm about halfway and angrily stuck due to an unfair A.I. I'm a casual gamer that loves racing games and this one was exciting at first but now terribly unfair. It would be nice if the cops could be disabled and it be just pure racing. Maybe I could beat them. Expand

    It runs and plays remarkably in all modes and retains its great gameplay mechanics and innovations from other versions and is, at time of writing and in the current absence of Wave Race on the Switch, one of the best racing games on the machine that exceeds what one could expect from a game at that price.

    Interesting and fun, Riptide GP: Renegade is a show of simplicity well cooked that adapts the game to the hybrid console with all its racing possibilities, multiplayer and also a new control system.

    Riptide GP: Renegade is a throwback to racers of the past but performs just like a video game should today. What accounts for a story is just awful, but the careers mode itself provides a well-paced water-based thrill ride.
