Redneck Rampage Collection

This game can really be summed up as a shooter, nothing more, nothing less. Bizarre levels, interesting bad guys, and fun weapons. While it has a lot going for it, that formula doesn't add up to hours upon hours of gameplay. In fact, it's really a glorified version of Doom, only instead of finding the exit door, you find your fat brother waiting for you at the end of each level. Needless to say, a lot of the levels get repetitive. If you're looking for fresh puzzles, deep thinking, and intense atmosphere look elsewhere. Of course if you think a game called Redneck Rampage is going to be a thinking man's game you need to re-evaluate your grasp of the English language. Still rampage is one of the better mindless shooters out there and a fun time killer.

This game is mildly diverting, at best. It is nowhere near as fun as Blood or Shadow Warrior, games from the same era using the same game engine. Yeah, it has a sense of humor, but a sense of humor does not automatically make a game "fun."

awsome game

Archaic shooter based on the Build engine, with none of the charm or strong design of Duke Nukem 3D. Essentially a one-joke wonder that grows old really, really quickly. I gave it an extra star simply for the inclusion of a great punkabilly sound track.

I bought this game on sale for $3.39. And I will never get that money back. I played through the entire game and it was worse than bad. It was boring. And I don’t want that in a game about rednecks fighting aliens for a pig. The weapons in this game either don’t work or feel unsatisfying, or both at the same time. Enemies don’t feel fun to fight against. The health and “armor” in this game are replaced by a weird and annoying alcohol and gut meter. Levels are confusing and tedious to get through and some of the levels don’t even feel like they belong in this game. Why are we inside a creepy abandoned asylum when this is supposed to be a light-hearted game? Civvie 11’s video about RR goes into more depth as to why it sucks major ass. I played this game all the way through and I’ll never get that time back. I thought it would be fun based on the GOG reviews, because there were some people that did play this game and had fun. But their tastes are different from mine, and that is entirely fair. But I not only don’t like this game, I HATE it. I refuse to even touch the expansions past the first 20 minutes because they’re more of what I hate about this game. HOWEVER. I think the biggest thing that this game has going for it is the attitude. This game OOZES that gun-toting redneck country punk vibe that I absolutely love. If they remade this game and made it look and play properly and gave it fitting themes for levels, I’d be down for that, no questions asked. I know that the expansions did go in that direction, and I think if a game were to follow in this game’s shit-heeled footsteps, they should take the redneck gimmicks and such and just RUN with it. This game sucks, to that I can’t deny. But I know that this game’s concept had so much potential, but it just didn’t tap into that, and that’s the painful spiked cherry on top. Avoid this game like the plague.
