Rage is a groundbreaking first-person shooter set in the not-too-distant
future after an asteroid impacts Earth, leaving a ravaged world behind. You
emerge into this vast wasteland to discover humanity working to rebuild itself
against such forces as bandit gangs, mutants, and the Authority – an
oppressive government regime that has a special interest in you in particular.
Featuring intense first-person shooter action, breakneck vehicle combat, an
expansive world to explore and jaw-dropping graphics powered by
id’s revolutionary id Tech 5 technology, Rage promises an experience like
no other.
Features:
- Visceral 1st-person gunplay and exploration – Take on bandit gangs and
hordes of mutants using an arsenal of exotic weapons and special items, such as
wingsticks, personal turrets, sentry bots, and remote-controlled
bomb cars.
- Frenetic 3rd-person vehicular mayhem – Burn rubber across the wasteland
in your very own super buggy! Upgrade and customize your car with special parts,
paint jobs and weapons, then test your skills as you battle four-wheeling bandit
clans and participate in deadly races.
- Three ways to play for unlimited action – Immerse yourself in a rich
story-driven single-player experience, grab a friend for exclusive co-op modes,
or go online for all-out multiplayer mayhem.
- An expansive experience – Beyond the first-person action and vehicle
combat, Rage offers a world open to explore, with unique characters, side
quests, and a compelling storyline.
- Graphics that have to be seen to be believed – Powered by
id’s cutting-edge new id Tech 5 engine, new Megatexture technology brings
the vast wasteland to life in never-before- possible detail with action running
at up to an astounding 60 frames per second.
Reviews for Rage
“…the lengthy campaign can last upward of 20 hours for avid racers and
diligent questers. Though the story gets a bit too cliched, there is a robust
amount of adventuring to be done in a world that rewards you for your
attentions. Rage is a beautiful game that looks equally stunning with or without
the hefty installation (which reduces the load times and is optional on the
360 but required on the PS3), so regardless of which platform you play on,
you'll find a rich and rewarding adventure that sets a new visual standard for
the postapocalyptic wasteland.” 8/10 – Gamespot
“…Rage proves a lot of what we already knew about id Software. The studio
knows how to make great shooters and deliver incredible visuals and animations.
With some of the elements we’re not as familiar with in id games like an
emphasis on story, Rage isn’t as strong. The great controls and useful weapon
upgrades help make Rage’s shooting parts a lot of fun, but the storyline
fails to create any real tension and the game’s characters, friendly and
hostile, never do or say anything memorable. As a result, Rage starts to drag
toward the second half after most of the mechanics and upgrades are introduced
because the fictional world isn’t very interesting. Despite the lack of
genuinely exciting context, all the content packed into Rage is still a blast to
play, including the surprisingly entertaining car combat mode and co-operative
challenges. Rage isn’t revolutionary, but is an expertly crafted, beautiful
shooter.” 8.5/10 – IGN
