Correction During my review I discuss how I wish there was a reset button if you get stuck on the track. A few of my viewers thankfully alerted me that there is one and I was incorrect in saying it didn’t have one. On the PS4 it is done by holding the touch pad. I completely missed this. Ignore that point in my review, since the game has that feature. Thank you!
Would you rather I not make the correction on the comments and just ignore it entirely? Because that doesn’t help anyone. A pinned comment allows me to provide a correction or additional information if needed. Mistakes are not ideal but I find addressing them and correcting them important.
@@joethealternativegamer3935 You have less than 1000 views for this video. You reviewed a game that has been in early access for years and missed one of the key aspects of the game meaning the entire time you played this game you everything you said in this video was done with a huge misunderstanding of the game because you ABSOLUTELY NEED the respawn ability in this game. The fact that you messed up this badly means you shouldn't have even posted this IMO. I've had this game for a while, so from my perspective this review is a joke. You should just start over, delete this video and post a new one. Show some footage from the original game Rollcage and talk about the devs a bit, mention whats been added since early access and review the game without missing one of the main aspects of gameplay.
I would if I had a background with Rollcage. I played the provided PS4 build, not the Early Access version on pc. It sounds like you have personal tastes for this game and the coverage of it. I would recommend you create your own review and share that passion.
@@joethealternativegamer3935 No, I just played rollcage on PS1 and when I heard of this game I decided to try it. It's not amazing but it's pretty cool. You're review just has a major errorr and instead of redoing it, you lazily uploaded it anyway.
even though i love GRIP, i cant defend the Switch version, the Switch is struggling to keep it at 30fps, and when there's enough action happening, the FPS drop is definitely noticeable from what i can see, that version has ambient occlusion turned off, and no anti aliasing to speak of, which means the game looks very pixelated, and shadow detail is kept to a bare minimum 1. PC 2. PS4 3. Switch
I see. Since Trailblazers has arrived on the Switch with 4-player splitscreen, what I'm thinking is to get that for the Switch, which is the console that I have. Meanwhile, GRIP for my Teammate's XBox.
Don't know which version you we're running but i think the framefate is adequate/good about over 90% of the time expect in certain DM maps. Still could be better and the graphics do look pretty rough. I still like the game a lot and rate it 9/10. This might go up to 10 if Switch Pro comes and the perfomance/graphics are then updated to about match the other versions + 4 player split screen. Switch version is the worst. It comes down to much one appreciates portable play and Switch version is generally cheaper.
Right now in january 2021, this is on sale for 10 euros on ps store for ps plus users. After watching this review I decide to bought it. Love for arcade racers like Wipeout, Burnout, even Flatout and Redout, indie Hotshot racing and hard-core Trackmania. Greetings from Slovenia.
One things u guys need to reminder this a remake of the original PS 1 games roll cage looks like it’s an exact copy you could never damage cars By ramming them the weapons are spot on but I do agree a reset button would be good if you fall off the track
Hello Joe. Nice review. I am interested in this game, but just from watching your review, I am kind of worried I might get motion sick from playing this game with so many sudden camera movements. Do you think this might be an issue or isn't this as prevalent as what has been shown in the review? Thanks.
Thank you for the kind words. Your question is going to be hard for me to assess how it will affect you since I do not get motion sickness from these games. There are some snappy moments on certain tracks. I would suggest you look at other gameplay videos on RUclips and see if it is ok. If you Xbox game pass it will be on there next week. I hope this helps
Thank you for bringing this up. I double checked and saw that it does have a feature for this. On the PS4 it is on the touch pad and I didn’t think to click that while racing. I’m going to pin a comment informing people of my error
... I just got this game and dig it so far. One thing I do not like is when sometimes you go air borne and the car flips and spins only to land perpendicular to a barrier ...
This game has been around for about a year now I'm glad to see it made it to consoles. I have a few vids myself on this. I liked the deathmatch arena :)
Good review !Amazing game !!Its like a ps2 game but supercharged in every way ! Love it and the price is very competitive to say at least (40€) split screen is the main event for me here :D
Dude I love this game it was so it is a lot of fun with friends including driving and single players but also the campaign is severely hard like it increases itself to from like easy to hard mode instantly but it's satisfying when you get it done basically when you get to the top known as tier 11 and the cars are fun to customize with even so you can show off your style with friends and with other players around the globe and I find this game really interesting and really fun on Xbox including all consoles
I’m also having the same online issues. I don’t know if it’s a bug or if not many players are playing this game. but i would really like to battle and race some other opponents in the near future
Good to hear some praise from someone who didn't grow up on Rollcage Stage II on the PS1. I loved it a great deal and heard similar praise to that which I had decades prior. Still curious about the Switch version.
Nice review, except that you missed that reset button, but hey nobody is perfect. And don't worry about those trolls who know everything better, just ignore them they are not worth it !
I did not experience any crashes while playing and the frame rate was stable while in the races! This was played on the ps4. I did not see use of a photo mode, though that would be a fun addition
Redout is blisteringly fast! Possibly the fastest racer ever made. There's a ton of racing modes. I got quite far into it but kept getting stung by the unfair ai, so gave up. Although it was quite late in the game. Really enjoyed it up till then.
before i start watching, i read fun.. you should do a review on the price people pay 40 euro's. also don't review on your taste, like if you are a hardcore racing fan and thinks this game is easy. a review is about all the people that play it not just you
a game should start easy and end hard, this game starts hard and probably en on extreme difficulty in campaign so a game that not start easy should not get a good review
@@ninjascroll1017 just depends.. beating you in mortal kombat is probably easy to. racing games i buy for the multiplayer not to play against cpu. how many games do you play in 1 week, only grip for 1 week is just boring (most games are)

I was surprised that full 4-player splitscreen support is featured. Should be a blast. Switch version has 2-player max. Still cool.
I remember when every game had split screen! A good time

I was a huge fan of Rollcage on PS1. This being a remake/successor.... Will most definitely be picking this one up. Thanks for the review.
Check for Rollcage Redux mod/patch.

Greetings from Slovenia.
Glad you’re enjoying it!
Wow, you finally uploaded a video. I thought you stopped the channel completely. Anyhoo keep posting, I'm sure your channel will GROW
Thank you! I aim to do at least one video a week. Have my videos not been hitting your feed?
This game popped up in a humble bundle pack. Your review helped me decide to get it. Thank you.
You’re welcome :)
I made a review on steam saying this is really fun for me, so im giving it a flatout 10/10.
:)

Remake or Spiritual Successor?
It's a spiritual successor, not quite 100% Roll cage but pretty damn close.
@@SSGLGamesVlogs Spiritual successor. It had some staff and modders of the original games though.

That's because it's actually a remake of a PS1 game :
;)
your boost bar was full the entire time lol, there's a boost button!
Wait a minute, you have the same beautiful calm voice like the Guy from "Alien Theory" 😳 How is that possible??? 😱 Very good video by the way 👍😁
Dude I love this game it was so it is a lot of fun with friends including driving and single players but also the campaign is severely hard like it increases itself to from like easy to hard mode instantly but it's satisfying when you get it done basically when you get to the top known as tier 11 and the cars are fun to customize with even so you can show off your style with friends and with other players around the globe and I find this game really interesting and really fun on Xbox including all consoles
Thanks buddy! Great Review!!
You’re welcome!
Since this video, has it been made possible to see opponents' cars taking damage and getting destroyed?
There has been a lot of changes with updates. This game is REALLY GOOD now!
I saw they just added more content for free!
I’m also having the same online issues. I don’t know if it’s a bug or if not many players are playing this game. but i would really like to battle and race
some other opponents in the near future
This game would really benefit from character added through interesting drivers and some voicework.
also.... That green thing around the speedometer. It's nitrous.
Loving the look of this game. Are there really weapons in this??? I'm particularly a fan of vehicular combat, and they feel almost extinct these days.
Good to hear some praise from someone who didn't grow up on Rollcage Stage II on the PS1. I loved it a great deal and heard similar praise to that which I had decades prior.
Still curious about the Switch version.
I feel like a game like this is right at home on the Switch :)
Is something wrong with modes that feel from 2 generations ago?🤨 Just thought I'd ask.
Nice review, except that you missed that reset button, but hey nobody is perfect.
And don't worry about those trolls who know everything better, just ignore them they are not worth it !
Thank you! I put that correction in the pinned comment :)
From looking at the footage it feels like if you have Wipeout on PSVR there is not much sense to go for this one?
I was thinking about getting this for the switch
This would be fun on the go
Anything to report regarding crashes, framerate and bugs, other than the one you mentioned? And does the game feature a photo mode during races?
I did not experience any crashes while playing and the frame rate was stable while in the races! This was played on the ps4. I did not see use of a photo mode, though that would be a fun addition
@@joethealternativegamer3935 For photo mode, there is Nvidia Ansel working for the PC, i'm afraid the console versions doesn't feature that one.
Not one single mention of Rollcage? :( That bums me out tbh otherwise good review
I found out this was a spiritual successor after I made my review! Were the original games good?
@@joethealternativegamer3935 original game was 1 of my favorite games of that generation
I LOVED BURNOUT REVENGE YES THEY SHOULD MAKE MORE😍
You should probably try Redout. Unlike Grip, it's actually fast and it's not as... static.
Is that on PS4?
@@joethealternativegamer3935 - it is, actually. Didn't know about it though: store.playstation.com/en-gb/product/EP8948-CUSA01817_00-0000000000REDOUT
Thanks! I’ll take a look!
Redout is blisteringly fast! Possibly the fastest racer ever made. There's a ton of racing modes. I got quite far into it but kept getting stung by the unfair ai, so gave up. Although it was quite late in the game. Really enjoyed it up till then.
@@bhamacuk I think the honour of the fastest racing game goes to Wipeout XL (or 2097), at least on PC.
Can you invite and play with friends
Music from timesplitters? 😁
Glad ya noticed! I love timesplitters:)
@@joethealternativegamer3935 of course was my childhood 😁🤘
Same 😀
Hey, Did you ever play Blur? It was on PC, PS3 and Xbox. Like Grid, but easier and power ups.
Blur was awesome! So underrated and was never given a proper shot!
I loved blur
This looks super epic, but I still think mariokart is the BEST racing game handsDOWN
I really wanna get this though
Seems like a great game and it looks very much like Rollcage.
It is the spiritual successor!
Not worth 40$

The game doesn't start that hard, I won 7 races in a row
I thought it was too easy actually
