U.S. ELECTION NIGHTMARE SPECIAL
The original PC release of Carmageddon: Max Damage launched with a “US Election Special” mode, taking inspiration from topical current events - as two of the least-liked meat sacks on the planet slugged it out to become the Most Powerful Person On Earth. This Special Edition has these game modes still in place, because it remains just as funny now as it was then to show the President and the failed candidate what you think… By MOWING THEM DOWN IN A VIDEOGAME! Not just once, but over and over again... Impale a horrified Hillary on the end of your mighty rod! Repulsificate demented Donalds straight to frigging CHINA! It’s hours of FUN for the whole FAMILY!

Carmageddon: Max Damage for PC features these 3 additional game modes:
Trumped-Up where every pedestrian is respectfully replaced by the President of the United States.
Hillaryious in which you’ll meet nothing but duplicates of the defeated Democratic candidate.
Mass Debate which features a politically correct balance of both characters.

Animals remain in the mix too – suitably accessorised… You haven’t lived till you’ve knocked the wig off of a penguin!

Carmageddon: Max Damage is the latest instalment in the legendary Carmageddon series. Carmageddon is the driving sensation where pedestrians (and cows) equal points, and your opponents are a bunch of crazies in a twisted mix of automotive killing machines. It’s the ultimate antidote to racing games!!

Play an adrenaline pumping bunch of game modes against AI opponents, or online against the rest of the Carmafan masses! Progress your Career through the Carma ranks or have a MultiPlayer romp in a Car Crusher, Fox 'n' Hounds (always been Stainless MP game session favourite!), Death Race or Checkpoint Stampede event - all frenetic fun, featuring Carmageddon’s trademark over-the-top violence, crazy PowerUps and non-stop laughs…

PLUS! You can relive all the mangling mayhem with the built-in Action Replay System. Featuring multiple choice of cameras and replay options – it’ll mean you never miss a pile-up again! Get your movies online and brag about your ped culling achievements. And there will be plenty of THOSE too – Achievements, Challenges and Collectables to hunt down, that’ll keep the whole family entertained for hour upon happy blood and oil splattered hour.

The Car Is The Star! Carmageddon: Max Damage features a wide and varied range of cool, crazy, custom killing machines; each with its own highly distinctive “character”. Carmageddon cars are specifically built for the job in hand – wrecking opponents and killing peds! Nearly 20 years ago the original Carmageddon invented the whole concept of videogame physics and real-time damaging of cars and scenery, and so it’s obviously been our responsibility to bring this technology BANG up-to-date with a brand new state of the art car damage (and repair) system. Crush, bend, twist, and completely mangle your opponents’ and your own car – smash parts off, or split it in two; the original game was all about wrecking motors and pummelling pedestrians, and today we take this to a whole new level! Power, Armour, and Offensive upgrades are available for your car, along with other customising options, allowing you to personalise the killing capabilities of your rides.

A host of old favourites from the original Carmageddon make a comeback, along with some all-new faces. Only ever seen before as low resolution mugshots, now you get to see them from head to toe (well, head to knees in the case of Screwie) in full HD 3D glory – usually as they smash through their windscreen and hurtle past (or INTO) yours!

The new environments are amalgamations of the best bits from the numerous chunks of landscape that we all loved to tear around in Carmageddon. “Bleak City”, "Devil's Canyon", “Dusty Trails”, “MagNuChem” and "Snowy" levels all return in updated forms, with their memorable landmark features such as the Loop ’de’ Loop, acid pits and Football Stadium. Everything is reassuringly surreal; hell, we’ve even managed to incorporate a giant food mixer into a level!

The topography and detail in the locations is updated and enhanced, with even more fun stuff to smash into, smash up, snap off, and send careening into the poor pedestrian population. “Nice Shot Sir!” And talking of pedestrians…

Once again, the game features a varied mix of adult pedestrians of all ages, shapes, persuasions and species. Classic pedestrians are back, such as old lady on a Zimmer frame and old man with his stick, with their famous cry “I was in the war!”, plus bikini babes and swimming trunk hunks, fat bastards, and herds of cows in improbable locations. Joining them are some new faces – including cyclists, wheelchair users and peds on mobility scooters. Carmageddon is an equal opportunities ped slaughterfest!

PowerUps are back and this time they’re even funnier, surrealier, hurtier, and messier than ever! Lots of the classic PUps return in super-enhanced form, such as Repulsificators, Kangaroos & Solid Granites. Then we have all new PUps like "Pelvic Thrust" and a variety under the heading “Tossers”! Combine PUps to create hilarious combo results like Groovin’ Helium Filled Peds, or Peds without legs at a Temporary Rapture!

Leaderboards. Challenge yourself to reach the top of the leaderboard using skill or brute force! Achievements. A suitably warped array of mad Feats and Exploits will garner you the rewards that every gamer dreams of. Challenges: Do the most stupid things, collect meaningless trinkets and waste hours of your life in the pursuit of ultimately pointless goals! Smelly Bushes: We’ve hidden a variety of these specially fragrant Easter Eggs throughout the game to keep you busy and entertained! CarMODgeddon: The whole game is MODdable for your MODding pleasure!

Carma 2 continues

Hey everyone, as many people have said Carmageddon TDR2000 was not really great, the greater surprise this game is tho! I have been a backer of the game when it was introduced and I have it here as well. It is really good game, which will sometimes upset you. That is the difficulty. Personally, I find this a great mix and I'm happy to have it.If you are a sadi*t, just get it. If you like driving, get it. If you like those two things together, Carma is great option. I will keep playing as it is fun. Lots of splashes.

Surprisingly good game

I spent A LOT of time playing Carma I and II (especially II) and I remembered horrors like TDR2000, so I didn't expected much of Max Damage. But when it got discounted I decided to get it. Now, I have played for over 20 hours and I must say it's just a good game. Off course - it has some issues, but I feel like playing Carma 2 just with better physics. I don't know if I would like it as much if I weren't such a huge fan of 1 and 2, but I still recommend it for someone who is looking for some pure (sometimes very literally) brainless fun :)

*chef kiss*

The series returns to its roots. That time tested classic Carmageddon gameplay is back and as polished as the graphics! The same rules apply here: You can win the race by puttering around the track(Boring!), or you can turn your opponents' cars into flaming metal coffins! For an even more challenging victory, you can try to mow down all the pedestrians. This is everything I loved about the original game, but streamlined and modernized to take advantage of modern hardware.

5 out of 5. Well made. Fun. Relaxing.

1) VISUALS - looks great (even in 2021)! 2) PHYSICS - not bad at all, feels pretty realistic. Handling is good. Much better than in any Need for Speed game ever made. I'd say it is closer to GTA 4/GTA 5 in regards to car handling (which is a decent level, isn't it). Heavy vehicles feel heavy, light vehicles feel light. By and large - it's good. 3) FUN - Tons of it! In my opinion, it's the best Carma to date. Classic game modes. Lots of power ups/buffs. Interesting maps. Great variety of vehicles that are upgradable and even a little bit customizable. 4) SOUNDTRACK - Classic Carma. It's heavy, it's energetic. You'll love it. 5) WILL THERE EVER BE A NEW CARMA? BOTTOM LINE: It's a MUST-HAVE Classic. Worth every penny. It's the most fun and relaxation you can get from a video-game. Buy it, you won't regret it!

Carmageddon, with newer graphics

This game plays most like Carma 2. It feels like a Carmageddon game, unlike TDR which always felt wonky to me. There are some added modes, but they are not required, you can level up just on the classic mode should you choose.
