The mad max video game is actually really really fun. Its EXACTLY what you would think it is. a sort of GTA in the apocalypse. Its a lot of fun. I highly recommend it.

Really good game, not sure why the reviews are so meh. Great scenario.

oh yea.

though I find it really funny that the first like 3/4 of the game was just because max REALLY wanted a V8.

I have been playing a bunch of this as well, and I do enjoy it, but I do have some issues with it that makes me understand some of the negative press.

- Max steals everyone’s stuff. This is especially jarring when he makes nasty comments about “scavengers” in response to an artifact he is stealing from some makeshift camp.

- Related to that, max isn’t a good guy. For every dude I give a sip of water to, I kill 10 more by busting into where ever they are living and pounding their face into jello.

-He treats Chumbucket fairly shitty. And what he does to him at the end of the game really pissed me off.

- Max kills the bad guy at the beginning, and thinks his car is gone, and spend the rest of the game just sort of wandering around running errands and finding stuff without a clear reason. The Magnum Opus is quickly far better than the Interceptor, but he doesn’t seem to consider using it to do what he was about to do with the Interceptor at the beginning of the game.

1: everyone steals everyones stuff. I dont see the big issues from that. Its just one asshole stealing from a bigger asshole. thoguh I do see the hypocrisy of it.

2: thats the same with every game. kill the bads guys henchmen. Again, not much issue from me.

3: yes, he does treat chum like shit.

4: he WAS going to use the magnus opus. once he had the V8, he fully intended to dump fuel tanks in the back (where chum was) and go. why he couldnt fit a second seat for chum, IDK.

Then chum stole the magnus, he went back to get it. finds stank gum had learned about the concubine and her daughter, and goes back to save them (and fails) then he just wants to kill ballsack scrotus as revenge. the fact that the interceptor was still in one piece was a bonus.

Like I said, I like the game, but those just threw me out of the immersion.

the only thing that didnt make sense to me was how bad he was treating chum .then again, the max in fury road was a bit of a dickhead too.

I started it and was enjoying it a lot but eventually moved on to other games. It’s pretty high on my back-log though.
