I remember as a kid being enticed by the cover at a local video game trader shop. They let you try it before you buy it, I played it for a few minutes and I had no idea what it was about or what I was doing.
That's an interesting story, I would have loved to beta test even a crappy NES game. I didn't grow up with this game, but I was able to play it recently and I expressed my own thoughts and opinions of it in a review. It definitely had problems with being too vague and restrictive to really be any fun.
what do you think of the new mad max on Ps4? ive been playing for about a week now, overall i would say im satisfied with the game play but i have yet to see any characters from any film besides Ofcourse the warboys . Also the "top dog" bosses al look the same with a few minor changes in the battles
+Nintenjoel The only reasons I own it are: 1) Must have all the movie based games regardless of quality. 2) My name is in the manual. 3) So I can rag on it to its face whenever I tell someone I beta tested it back in the day.
Hell yeah! Told em the truth that their beta game sucked ass!!! Still released a game that sucked ass. Sounds like the game industry hasn't changed much.
So I picked up a cheap copy of the new Mad Max for the PS4 on Black Friday and played it for a good long while. It's a little awkward with the jumping being mapped to one of the shoulder buttons, but its actually pretty fun. I love the vehicular combat, but the hand to hand stuff is a rip off of the Arkham games. Still, I like it a lot.
An underrated NES classic? Lmao!!!!!! This game is crap, in fact, all movie based games on the NES are terrible. They pull you in with the popularity of the movie, and then sell you a turd of a game and bank on it.

really good rant chris and i love the part when you was telling them that the game sucks

+therandomdot yeah and remember when renting something like that cost like 3$ for a weekend, those were the days lol
Love this story, and this rant. Great "behind-the-game" expose!
Thanks! The Mad Max rant will be in Brett Weiss's next book about the NES.
You beta-tested this game?? You ARE an old ass gamer! lol, freaking Mindscape. At least you tried to alter history for us. Too bad they didn't listen.
Sadly, they did not.

Agreed. I still find it incredibly vague nowadays too.
well at least I love the cover, & hurrah for both new Film & Vgame, finally we have a great MAD MAX game
Agreed. Absolutely LOVED Fury Road and the new game.
It's a shame you didn't end up getting RoadBlasters because while it's far from the best port, it's still not a bad game imo.
Roadblasters is still on my list of games I'd like to add to my collection.

I fully enjoyed the current generation Mad Max game.
This game is so fucking frustrating. The last starfighter eider. Great and sad story.
OMG don't get me started on The Last Starfighter! LOL
Hey man great vid, you should review the new mad max game coming out.
Thanks for reminding me not to buy this game unless its two dollars or less! LOL

3) So I can rag on it to its face whenever I tell someone I beta tested it back in the day.
Those are all very worthy reasons!
Review SUPER GLOVE BALL.
Sadly I don't own it or a Power Glove.
Hell yeah! Told em the truth that their beta game sucked ass!!! Still released a game that sucked ass. Sounds like the game industry hasn't changed much.
Yeah. They just wanted me to kiss their butts. I ain't down with that.
Is that a Red Dwarf tee shirt? XD
the7thlevl On the back it says "Smeg Off".
Out of all of the movie based games on the NES, this is the best one, although that isn't saying much. It's still a turd.
I have a fondness for Gremlins 2, A Nightmare on Elm Street and Robocop.
If you hate the game I'd be happy to but your copy from you just because I love mad max ;)
Oh yeah thanks for the name again imma check that out too ;)
Anyone played the new game
+Christian Roberson I'm waiting for the price to drop.
Alright

Cool
Paperboy isn't a terrible game.
Not terrible but not great either.
I just give it crap because of Mindscape. Haven't played it in decades So I can't comment on it.
"All I heard was 12 minutes of "boo hoo it's too hard". Mad Max is an underrated NES classic.
If by underrated classic you mean poorly designed and a waste of a good license then I agree with you.
