Carmageddon Max Pack

nothing more to say. a nearly perfect game experience!

take one part bumper cars, one part car races, liberarly apply blog, gore, viscera add some creativity and very dark hummour and you get carmageddon. the fundation and my prefered itteration of the series (certainly like it more than Carma2 of accursed TDR). YES for anyone unfamiliar with the series you ought to start with 4th (reincarnation / max damage) but there is a lot more diverse feel within the original game (especialy this itteration that also features splat pack) tracks especialy but even classics like FEARarrari f666 (that some stupid maranello company did not find one bit funny, which makes it even better joke) are all here. Floaty controlls, short render distance (yeah for some reason it was console optimalised even on PC *shrugs* ) would be problem for rookies, but to me it enhances this feeling of nearly ballet-like proceedings. you spin and thwirl never feeling like you have full controll.... exactly how i'd feel within these insane contraptions. Oh yeah i gues be warned the game gets tad bit violent, with eyeballs popping out of corpses and such if the NPC gets hit hard enough .) I personaly love it, its manifestation of off sense of hummour, dark, violent, but ultimatley not melevolent. In some ways it is almost childish with its giddy attitude towards showcaing the violence or the triumph cutscene. If you want silly little car racing game with ability to completly wreck your opponents than Carmageddon is good, if you are adjusted to more floating controls or are willing to put up with them than conssider Max Pack, else Max Damage.

It's been 14 years since I last played Carmageddon so to finally play it once more...damn I felt like 14 year old kid again :) Carmageddon is one of those games that kept me hooked for hours at a time the game is a pure joy to play it was the first of it's kind back in the day and still holds it's replay value to this very day. And with the new Carmageddon coming soon this is the perfect way to keep you busy until then. So fans of the series will be hooked on this once more and for those who are new to this series you're in for a treat so buckle up and enjoy the mayhem.

Classic Brit humour and a fun simple framework make this game a hoot to dip into now and then and a real challenge to master, Well worth the tenner!

I was very much hoping to find this here at GOG when I first surfed on in some 3 years ago. The magic day has finally arrived and the news is very very good. The default settings Just Work and on Windows 7 64 bit, too! I have returned to gaming glory. My most favorite game that I have been unable to play for almost a decade due to the original disk somehow managing to be scratched.(He looks darkly at his significant other and a look of deep dark menace appears). All the killing, all the cartoonish violence, all the fun. A true stress relieverthis 'un. Get it. Get it now. Then wait for the relaunch of this in Q1 2013. To paraphrase the Duke, "hail to the King, baby" of driving and doing bad things.
