Carmageddon PC Game Review - Lazy Game Reviews
A post-apocalyptic racing game where you can run down pedestrians and run down your opponents… or, you can even race if you want! And it’s really well-made! What’s not to love? Carmageddon for MS-DOS and Windows pcs
It’s all good, I appreciate your comments whatever they are! The soundtrack is just not ideal review material, but whatever
Haha, how very true about the human/zombie connection, especially the working-class citizens you see in the game…
That’s very odd there would be a version like that which refers to zombies yet with red blood, don’t think I’ve ever seen that.
So I guess I owe you an apology, mr. Phreakindee! I am sorry, I thought of that too late that it might actually HAVE been the game’s actual soundtrack there on the background. Never mind my criticism then, it’s just a great and inspiring review!
Btw, I just had to play this game after viewing this review.. then I played Carmageddon II later on that day. What superbly awesomely great and humorous games! It’s so funny to watch people get splattered all over the place especially with ‘helium filled zombies’ (or people - I have a weird version which says ‘zombies’ but has red blood and human characters, though ‘zombie’ is pretty descriptive for the regular human anyway..)
Very nice. I have the uncensored UK edition of Carmageddon 2 myself. I got it because I like the box better than the American one!
Yes, I thought about that after I wrote that and remembered this game has really awfully distorted musics, hehe. I think you used metal in some video on the background on your speech too, so then I wasn’t sure if it was just your taste in music or just that the game musics -are- that type. You are right, you can never please everyone, and I don’t mean my criticisms in any bad vibe, I just like to give criticism with the compliments so it balances out..
INTERPLAAAAAAY!!!!
Haha, I collect games too, just like as you. I have this game (UK censored edition) and wanted actually mainly on ebay uncensored version, Carmageddon splat pack & Carmageddon 2 uncensored & censored versions
good game, horrible player!
The music -IS- actually the soundtrack of the game, directly ripped from the audio tracks on my CD.? It’s why I used it. Otherwise, I wouldn’t use metal for my reviews, but this one felt appropriate for it, since it was the music from the game.
I see your point though, and it is a bit distracting honestly. Still, I use music at low volumes to set a certain tone. Still, it doesn’t always work for everyone’s taste!
Another great review! The only thing that disturbs me personally is the heavymetal background music you have sometimes when you talk about a game. Urgh. Why would you need any music while you are talking anyway? You could use the game’s music and sounds while talking if you really must have something. Otherwise, wonderful review, I feel exactly the same about this game - the rawness is just so great, but I love the sequel a bit more in a bit different way.
Oh my goodness. I’ve remember this game when I was 9 till 13 i’ve played carmageddon 2.
*GASP*!! CARMAGEDDON! YAAAAAHHH yeaaahhhhhh!! Oh goodness, I had no idea you were going to review this wonderful, great, splendid, superbly awesome game! Oh man, I can’t wait to stop typing this and start watching this video! (-8
You really do have to play both of them to get the full experience, IMO. I love them both, and each of them have their strengths. C2 for sure had some annoying and stupid levels/missions though, and that’s my biggest complaint about the game. I love how C1 just had pure deathmatch-style racing, without the stupid interludes between track sets.
Carmageddon is on of my favorite games. Some of carma 2’s levels are really hard and dumb.
Ah, somehow I totally forgot to mention that. Yes, some Euro/UK versions were censored and replaced the red blood with green slime and the peds with zombies and aliens.
That’s a game that is certainly on my list to review, so don’t you worry!
Haha, yes that’s GTA! They are both quite similar in some ways, now that I think about it… both from the same time period too.
So are trolls.
this game is horrible
Thank you so much for the review! I love that game! It’s a must-have and must-play.
I remember this but for some reason I remember playing Carmageddon with much crappier graphics. It was also ‘overhead’ as if you were looking down at it
Or maybe that was GTA? Haha they get mixed up in my head so often xD
Another great review!
I love Carmageddon 2 however the one thing is weird atleast that I noticed is that the soundtrack is like 3 iron maiden songs. I mean its cool but there should be more than three songs only on a whole video game soundtrack.
And Excellent game
Excellent review!!!
