    One of the most unique and rich gaming experiences I've had since Smash Bros. I don't know how to describe how good it feels to keep getting better at this game.

You start of flailing around like a crazy person...you are well aware of your inability to play well but you still have such a great time. Over time you'll find yourself making contact easier and controlling the ball like you never imagined. The explosion after each successful goal is exhilarating, but it's still just as fun to laugh when things don't go as planned.… Expand

    Simple, but fun. Perfect indie game. Easy learning curve, but hard to master. One of the most fun co-op games at new generation consoles if you have some friends to play with. 8/10 game, but value for money 10/10.

    Simply put, best online competitive game I've ever experienced. simple controls, with a learning curve of actual skill and not button or inventory memory. right up my alley.. If you don't own this gem of a game, get on it dude. a must have. A BLAST WITH FRIENDS

    Rocket league is a fun fast pace game. I am a huge fan of FIFA and racing games and rocket league mixing these two great game genres. I would highly recommend this game and at a cheap price of something like $26 it is the best game you can buy.

    Lot's of fun co op. Hard to find a good co op game now that both users can get achievements. This game is addictive. I'd like to see more custom options available for season play.

    Despite being awful at the game, it is really fun and addicting, the only problem I have with it is that it often lags

    This is an amazing and very fun coop game. I feel that this game looks a little better and smoother in this Xbox version, I supposed that this is due to the extra time to fix bugs and improve the overall game. 10 points for this small study.

My only complaint, which is minor and didn't cost it any rating points from me (perfect 10) is there should be more custom paint jobs to unlock. They are all very samey for the most part. They should also zero in on your car at the end of the match when you are MVP so you can show off your style. But those are superficial complaints the core game is absolutely perfect. Must have this in your collection...… Expand

    Boring and overrated. I have no idea what people see in this mediocre game. It might be fun the first match or two, but beyond that it falls flat. It's way too easy to score from center, teammates are more interested in hitting you than the other team, and you get flung so far that you never really have a chance to get the ball once you have been hit.

    The best "sport" game of 2015, good graphics and gameplay, very fun playing with friends, car personalizations and exclusive content for Xbox, Rocket League is what the gamer community needs, and for a good price!

    I'm still unsure of the nature of all the hype for this game. It will continue to baffle me how it gets raving reviews. I never got the chance to first get immersed on PC so maybe I missed out. Starting this game for the first time however on Xbox One was nothing amazing. It seems like your average arcade style game to pass some time with no substance to keep you coming back for more.

    An absolute blast to play with friends or even by yourself. The addition of new content keeps the game fresh and addicting to play. The mechanics are fun and the controls are difficult to master which presents a challenge to new players. Definitely worth getting

    C'est vrai que ça ne coûte que "20 balles" mais est-ce une bonne raison pour s'enticher de ce petit concentré de débilité à l'état pur : du foutchebôle avec des chtites wâtures et un grooos baaallon. Si je veux voir des conneries de ce genre, je regarde les zouaves de Top Gear jouer au foot avec de vraies voitures, au moins on rigole 5 mn puis on passe à autre chose.

    Evidemment, on sent l'influence Nintendaube sous-jacente, Mariol est planqué en embuscade : couleurs criardes fluorescentes, jouabilité à la va-comme-je-te-pousse, moteur physique à la rue qui renvoit le réalisme aux abonnés absents et surtout le caractère ultra-répétitif de chaque match : le jeu d'une grande pauvreté se noie avec ses mécaniques simplistes dans un petit verre d'eau tiède. Quant au multi, tout le monde y fait n'importe quoi, c'est la fête du slip... quand le matchmaking n'est pas simplement à la masse... lui aussi.

    Techniquement, Rocket truc ne vole pas bien haut et s'il parvient à tenir les 60 im/s la plupart du temps, c'est au détriment de l'anti-aliasing... aux abonnés absents lui aussi ! du 1080 sans AA, ça ne sert à rien : on a l'impression de jouer en SVGA. Mais de la part d'un développeur indé, que pouvait-on attendre d'autre ? rien bien sûr. Ce jeu est une belle arnaque !    … Expand

    Rocket League is in my opinion the best sports game on Xbox One but a word of warning - stick with it. It's hard to judge the bounce of the ball and the speed of which it flies at you but just stick with it and you'll be a pro in no time.

    My only gripe is that it needs more arena's.    … Expand

    Indudablemente divertido y engancha como pocos, pero a la larga, cuando ya no quedan logros, cuando repites una y otra vez las mismas técnicas para jugar, y ya no encuentras a los amigos jugando, es cuando ves que quizás le ha faltado un pelín de ambición en cuanto a contenido y modos de juego como para haber sido algo apoteósico. Aún así muy recomendable.

    This game is so much fun together with friends. The game mechanics are very simple, you can drive the car, jump move the car in the air and an additional feature is the boost you can use on ground and in the air. Even this sounds very simple, the game play makes so much fun that you will be playing for hours once started!

    It's immediately and obviously clear why Rocket League has enjoyed the success it has on PC and PS4. It's just a fun game. Even though tournaments are commonplace, it doesn't ever feel like it's taking itself too seriously. Enjoying yourself is front and center, and it's a refreshing change of pace to many other titles available today.
