    No doubt the game of the year! Amazing graphics and not weird and unrealistic sound acting at all. The story had me extremely emotionally involved and the dialogue is expertly written. The bike physics are so realistic they really push the boundaries of the current gen consoles. The gameplay is very immersing and not repetitive at all. GAME OF THE CENTURY PEOPLE!

    I'll be honest. I enjoyed most of Deep Silver's work. I enjoyed this games features, but what I don't understand is how Deep Silver could of had such a grand idea but it was brought out with a rushed feeling and all the idea's which they put out in the Pre-Alpha gameplay had disappeared. Why on Earth would they ruin it by doing that? This game isn't the worst ever made, but its definitelyI'll be honest. I enjoyed most of Deep Silver's work.

And don't listen to citizenkaneofvi, he is most likely a worker for Deep Silver trying to give this game a good review, hence all the games he reviewed is the other platforms of Ride to Hell.… Expand

    Yes this game is pretty bad and stupid but idk I am really enjoying it. It's like onechanbara bikini samurai squad. That game was terrible but also kind of enjoyable. Plus there aren't a lot of biker games out there. (besides the lost and damned gta add on)

    The good:

    Graphics are nice
    Combat is ok and some environmental kills are pretty cool
    Lots of guns, upgrades, melee moves to buy make you more badass
    Some bike missions are fun
    Customizing your bike
    Interesting varied locations from saw mills to casinos
    The story at times
    The hilariously bad sex scenes had me laughing
    Game length

    The bad

    Lip synching
    Voice acting
    Various glitches
    Some ugly textures and facial animation
    Most bike missions
    The shooting missions are mediocre yet enjoyable
    Canned animations
    The price
    The ai
    Not open world (originally was)

    Well there you have It a bad game that has some good qualities I do not recommend anyone buying it new or at all but if you enjoy bad games that can do some good like aforementioned onechanbara then rent this game or wait till it is about $5 at GameStop. Most ppl want give this game a chance but I decided to and I had a good time it is definitely a bad game but its an enjoyable one

    ride to hell retribution es algo entretenido que intenta sobresalir de un modo bueno, pero se queda en malas graficas por ese sentido no lo logra pero sobresale en personajes, musica e historia un buen juego.

    This game is so bad its laughable. The "voice acting" is wooden, the story is nonsensical, the graphics are muddy, the mechanics are dreadful, and the soundtrack is unbearable. But trust me, you will laugh at this game and have fun with it if you are hanging with a few friends and play this game for the fun of it. 1/10 (Abysmal)

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I absolutely HAD to review this game. I couldn’t let it escape my rage. You think you’re going to get away? You come here… you’re not getting away. Right off the bat, this **** game makes a terrible first impression. You’re awkwardly thrown into a turret segment, that feels broken without any rhyme or reason and suddenly, you’re in a terrible quicktime event brawl.

    Again, with no explanation. Then, you’re driving your floaty-ass motorcycle in a race reminiscent of Big Rigs or Mother Truckers, unable to do anything more than quicktime events as enemies materialize from thin air from the sides to fight you and then fly off in random directions EXPLODING FOR NO **** REASON!!!!!

    It’s like the game is intentionally trying to get you to absolutely hate it’s **** guts! In the opening sequence!

    But it gets worse, much worse. Never has a game earned it’s namesake like Ride to **** Hell has! The retribution of my FIST into the developers’ faces! The poorly written story follows Jake Conway, or “Badass Biker #1”, who has recently returned from the Vietnam War to his uncle and his little brother.

    The game makes an attempt to have you bond with him as you ride on the open road together in sequences so poor, you’d swear you were playing an early alpha.

    The graphics: muddy, lowres, angular, and looking like something straight off an early Xbox One. One! As in the original. All is horrid, I mean well, until a bunch of rival bikers show up to kill you both.

    By the way, the voice acting in this game is SOME OF THE WORST I’VE EVER **** EXPERIENCED!!!

    No, no, scratch that. It is the worst **** voice acting ever!

    Even the worst dub job in Japanese games I’ve played have more emotion and believability than the sorry excuse for voice overs here.

    It’s as if all of the lines were recorded in the bathroom of the studio by unpaid interns.

    In fact, you will immediately notice that it’s not just the voice acting, but nearly all of the sound design in the game. When you **** up the bike sound effects in your goddamn biker game, you know you done ****ED IT UP!!!

    It’s literally the same tone once you hit 40 mph, and you can’t hear **** when they talk.

    So many other sounds in the game are just straight up missing. The cutscenes are eerily quiet because of it.

    And many things in the game that should have sounds, like slamming into things when you’re driving, or cars driving by in the distance, have no sound whatsoever. And the sounds that are there sound like they’ve come from a generic library, or worse. Hell, I could even go to freesound.org, and find superior clips then what’s in this **** game. So anyway, after your brother is murdered, and you’re shot and left for dead, it’s time to magically reappear with no explanation, and go out for you revenge, over the course of 37 broken, boring, repetitive, and mind-numbingly dull missions.

    Now, originally planned for release in 2009, this thing has been in development since 2008, the Ride to Hell series. It’s been cancelled, pushed back and revived numerous times, and it should have stayed **** cancelled. The game was supposed to be an open world biker game, in the backdrop of the 1960’s. You could explore the open world in the western part of the United States, working your way through the ranks of a tough motorcycle gang. That sounds cool. Only what we got here is an aborted, desperately cobbled together pretender. It’s like a dead **** carcass taped back together, and presented to us as if it was still alive.

    The worst **** part is they think they can make a franchise out of this. Yeah! On May 28, 2013, Deep Silver was quoted as saying, “It’s not something that everyone will like. Definitely not. We’re going to have people who even hate it. But we know we’re going to have a lot of fans as well. A lot of people will love it. A lot of people will laugh. It’s going to be an exciting thing.” NO! NO IT’S **** NOT!!!! NOBODY’S LAUGHING!!

    IT’S TERRIBLE! The series is launching as three separate titles for iOS, console download, and as full console and Windows PC releases. The publisher can branch out to new demographics. Don’t you **** dare. Do you hear me? Don’t you even try it. No. No.

    Now game, let me explain to you why this sucks. Gameplay breaks down into one of two things: either fighting, shooting sections in large, mostly static and empty area levels, or: driving/racing. Only you don’t so much drive, as you do slide all around the place, as every damn vehicle in the game feels like it’s on a goddamn skating rink, floating, lacking any weight or impact.

    Enemy vehicles careen off the road for no **** reason to their deaths, triggering the same damn explosion sound, every **** time.

    You couldn’t pay for two explosion sounds in your own piece of **** game? And you actually have the audacity to ask for 30 bucks? More than twice the amount of some of the best **** arcade games? Are you crazy? This is criminal.    … Expand

    The worst game ever created, it really is. Every element is extremely poor. Clunky gameplay, awful graphics for 2013, miserable voice acting, repetitive, awful controls, an ungodly amount of bugs and glitches, and not to mention the disturbing cut scenes. The story is extremely lame and predictable, no character has any value, as they basically have no unique aspects. The positives areThe worst game ever created, it really is.

    It's known as one of the worst games of all time. I don't need to make a review.

    Let’s leave it with Jake’s own words, spoken as if holding up a mirror to his own life: “Swear to god - I’d rather be polishing boots than sit through this crap.”
