I’ve always known thatRetro City Rampagewas going to be funny. After playing it, I now know that it’s going to be fun; really,reallyfun.
The game’s simple controls and interface make the game incredibly easy to jump into. From there, you’ve got so much stuff to do, and it all happens so fast, with the pefect mixture of action and comedy. Picture a modernGTAgame, but sped up by about x1.5, and with rocket launchers, flame throwers, milk bars, and violent pedestrianseverywhere. Then populate it with characters from all your favorite games, movies, and TV shows from the 80’s and 90’s. That’sRetro City Rampage.
If you’re like me and you always wanted to like the GTA series, but couldn’t get past the wanna-be gangster movie vibe, thenRetro City Rampageis for you. Even if you loveGTAexactly the way it is, I think you’ll still love this game. How could you not? This is a new top-downGTAset in videogame-land. It’s such an obviously good idea, I’m surprised that no one has done it sooner.
Retro City Rampageis coming to WiiWare and undisclosed consoles later this year.
