Redneck Rampage Collection

my only legit problem it that the weapons don't feel nice I mean the weapon sounds could be changed to farts and it whould be the same as it currently is

***First off, don't bother reading "SuperKing92's" 1-star review just because the game reminds him of his brother being a redneck - for all we care.*** Now then, I've given myself a chance to play this game thanks to GOG.com, however after playing the games for a few hours...I just find the level design to be horrible, as in most levels are freaking labyrinths and the gameplay really gets repetitive. The weapons and enemies are fairly boring too - I was tired of killing the same bunch of rednecks over and over. I tried playing the sequel: Redneck Rampage Rides Again, hoping that the problems from the first game would be gone. Instead, it's the same repetitive gameplay with the same graphics. I guess for those who grew up playing these type of games, you're all better off playing BLOOD or UNREAL GOLD instead.

When in fps game, you pick up the shotgun and fire it for the first time, that moment wil define the entire game, and in Redneck Rampage series, your double-barreled shotgun is weak and imprecise as you'll need to fire 2 to 4 buckshots to put down the most common enemy. Which means the shooting ain't great, but its cheery spirit definitely compensates a lot. Created in 1997, Redneck Rampage was made as a goof on Southern tropes by Xatrix entertainment, who were famous for making shooters with original concept and extremely complicated level designs. And you can expect both in your adventures as you play a charismatic hickbilly Leonard who is looking for his brother Bubba while the alien invasion is happening. The game has a lot of humor and light atmosphere as you explore backtiown swamps, ditch cities and farms armed with all sorts of traditional and original weapon armament, such as alien teat gun, chicken dyn-O-mite, ripsaw-blade and alien arm gun. Shooting is fun but imprecise, which can and will put your nerves to the test, when tougher and meaner, spongier enemies show up that can decimate your health in a single shot. Another bad thing about this series is that levels can get crazy complex as you're looking for hidden switches in a labyrinthine environment, but that's a part of the charm for the 90's shooters. One of the great things about RR is the amazing soundtrack with a collection of songs from the greats such as Mojo Nixon, The Beat Farmers and Reverend Horton Heat (which thanks to this game I became a great fan of these bands). Voice overs are also amazing and funny, with Leonard taking the cake as a sarcastic, foul mouthed hickbilly. Couple that with having the entire collection of Redneck Rampage games, the original game from 1997 that remains my favorite, the amazing expansion Suckin' Grits on Route 66, and it's somewhat lackluster sequel in 1998. That's a whoopin' 40 levels you have here that can easily last you for 20 hours and more!

Very good game, brought good memories back when I had windows 98

Had to use autohotkey to change strafeing keys from "," "." to "7" "9" to make it easier to play the game on keyboard. Also the puzzles are not obvious so just saying that you might need a guide.
