PlayStation Universe gets behind the wheel of this carmageddon-meets-zombie romp.
The PSNStores Stream Show was packed with games this week. Enjoy 1 hr 58 min of PSN titles, including: Outland, Under Siege, Armageddon Riders, Sega Rally Online Arcade, and more.
GPT: "Lately zombies have been becoming an ever more common theme in games. It was only a matter of time before someone decided to release a zombie themed crash ‘em up racer. Targem Games, an independent PS3 development studio created Armageddon Riders for PS3. First thing’s first: if you are a person who cannot stand games with goofy premises, take a step away from the PSN and do not buy this game."
Not a bad looking game, but the mechanics turned me off. Cheap though so can't complain.
PushSquare: "Armageddon Riders is a couple of features away from “absolutely essential” status. Targem’s supremely polished post-apocalyptic racer mixes goofy humour with solid handling mechanics, wrapping the whole affair in a stunning Burnout Paradise-esque open-world environment. The package could have been elevated with an online multiplayer mode, but there’s enough to the game’s single-player to make it a very compelling purchase."
I agree with everything David Jaffe has to say about game journalism, but if I'm having a fantastic time with a game and it surprises me, then I'm going to review it appropriately.
People are free to disagree, but I think this game is great. There's nothing more to discuss really.
I bought this game, it is very fun! It's one of those rare gems, i run into by luck and buy from doing a bit of research and strike gold. Another rare gem would be anarchy rush hour.
If you have psn these are other must buy titles:
Joe danger
Wipeout
Stardust
Soldner-x

Fat princess
