Mad Max - PS4 Review | Chalgy's Game Room

Chalgyr's Game Room writes:

I went into Mad Max really hoping I would enjoy it. Shadow of Mordor was great last year. I love GTA. Bits and pieces of the open world environment, systems, violence - all of it should have clicked for me, but it just never quite did. I spent an extra week and a half playing through the game before writing this review, hoping against hope that the experience would improve for me, but it never did.

Think snake is kicking mad max around the desert lol

[Psychotica]

Not for me. I got 47 hours in Mad Max and 2 hours in MGS V...

[MONOLITHICIDE]

Got to say same for me. Game is addicting. You would think exploring desert wasteland would be empty and boring but it's not.

[nowitzki2004]

I got like 10 hours on MGS but a lot more on Mad Max. Mad Max is just so much more fun.

[Psychotica]

Mad Max is pretty fun game and better than a 5.75

[Christopher]

Huh. Surprising score. Maybe the site truly treats 5 as an average game?

[Saelyn]

It's a shame that I've been seeing just "okay' reviews. Although on another note, saw the movie again last night at home. Not the same as the theater but god it still gets that adrenaline going!

[Pintheshadows]

That's harsh. It is a far better game than that score suggests.

[morganfell]

And journalism can be far better than that site suggests...

[Palitera]

Journalism is mostly irrelevant to gaming, specially on N4G.

The subject here is blogging and this is what is done 99.9% of the time.

[morganfell]

Palitera,

I absolutely agree with you. However, blogging is the new accepted form of journalism. From war reporting to politics, some 8 years ago it began to overtake the mainstream press who all had their own agendas. And at first it was a good thing. People were acting in order to see some truth make its way. However, it was soon corrupted and game blogging became so faster than any other for of individual effort. It rapidly grew into persons caring less about the truth and more about their 15 minutes of fame. Suddenly what they thought was more important than the subject about which they were blogging.

Currently journalism of all forms, including blogs are like diseases that do more harm to the body of gaming than they help. No one, and I mean no one writing today, blog or not, understands that the press should exist to serve the readers. The Fifth Estate is now in disarray and not even a skeleton of its former self.

Bargain Bin Game. Told ya from the beginning.

[MONOLITHICIDE]

Missing out. Great game. Aside from some bugs.

[Psychotica]

And you were wrong from the beginning..

[nowitzki2004]

So you havent played it.. Not even the beginning.

[antz1104]

Spoken like someone that hasn't played it.

To give a game like Mad Max a 5.75 of 10 is the same as writing. "I suck at reviewing games and no one should read a word I write".

More or less. Yeah I know personal opinion and all. But if your taste are so completely F up. Then you shouldn't review games. Simple as that...

[crashtestnl]

MGS is boring, Mad Max is wonderfull.

[Der_Kommandant]

The game deserves a 9 just for the amazing Wasteland design and addictive gameplay, i don't get tired of driving ridiculously long distances like i normally do in other games.

[sci4me]

Exactly my feelings.. I rarely use the fasttravel just because i enjoy the driving. Even when its far away :)

[attilayavuzer]

Except for the damn minefield missions -_-

An hour and a half of grinding later, I'm glad that chapter of my life is over haha

Back to scavenging.

[Pintheshadows]

This is a fair criticism. They are a pain in the arse.

[nowitzki2004]

So much to do in that wasteland. So many cars to collect, so much to upgrade.... Mad Max time for me.

[KTF26]

And even after a month of disagrees with these scores
they're still coming out
