Mad Max (PS4)

After being disappointed by Far Cry Primal (and thrilled by Far Cry 5), I was looking for another open-world game to keep me entertained until some of the fall blockbuster titles come down in price.I read some good things about this Mad Max game -- heaven knows, I loved the Fury Road movie -- and thought I'd give it a try.Well, my gamble has paid off in spades. I'm really enjoying this game and the bleak but strangely beautiful world Max and his Igor-like sidekick Chumbucket inhabit.I was concerned that I wouldn't like the melee action and lack of ammo -- I suffer from carpal tunnel syndrome, and too much button-mashing can be painful -- but fortunately, with a little experience and some leveling up, Max is now taking on bad guys with aplomb and little carpal tunnel pain...The car combat is a hoot, too. As you drive around, thugs in hot rods try to attack you, and you have to fight back, either using your car as a battering ram or getting out and shooting at a vulnerable part of their cars, often followed by yet another melee.Some reviewers here have complained that the game is repetitive, but personally I don't mind repetitive games as long as I'm having fun playing them, as I am here.What's the best part of an open-world game? The hours upon hours of play and exploration you can expect, and Mad Max does not disappoint.At the current price of under $30, MM is a long-playing bargain, and I recommend it highly...

I loved the movie and this game is pretty entertaining too! It's an open world - but a very vast and empty one. You work to build up Max's skills and car. You have a sidekick in Chum, who talks a lot and is entertaining. You help strongholds build up which in turn help keep you healthy and supplied. It's a lot of fun driving around doing the little tasks, clearing out bases, etc. I really like it! It gets a little repetitive but not for a long time. I recommend this game for anyone who likes open world style games you can play alone!

Might be the best game ever made... Best realistic gritty hand-to-hand combat game, period....Belly to back suplexes, MMA tackles and slams, jumping double leg drop kicks, body slams, sidewalk slams, front kicks, jumping arm bars, knees, stomps, spinning elbows... all in beautiful slow motion.The Arkham games and Sleeping Dogs were beautiful hand to hand combat games, but Mad Max outdoes them.Not to mention you get a four barrel sawed off shotgun and a cool car.This game delivers the goods.

not the survival game I was hoping for but a fun arcade style game true to the feel of mad max movie road warrior & fury road

Had this game before but beat it and traded it it. I really missed the gameplay and the fighting. I also enjoy the movies so the game was an absolute blast that I had to order it again now that the price has gone down. 10/10. Playing again when it arrives.

Game did not work

I will admit this game can be a little repetitive but well worth it. The movie with Tom Hardy was incredible and I feel as though this game's Max beautifully captures that. The car creativity to this game reminds me of GTAV. :)
