remember Road Rash?

So I'm hesitant to recommend stuff on Epic as their history with Tencent leaves something to be desired, but they're offering Road Redemption (a modernized PC successor) for free this week if anyone else wants to jump on the deal.

The music alone was worth the play! I played this on sega genesis all day long!

Obligatory fuck epic but I have this game on steam and it is pretty funny for a few hours. It didn't keep my attention for as long as road rash did back in the day but definitely worth a play if you liked those old games!

I remember! My sister and I played a ton on Genesis. I should get emulation set up on my Steam Deck so I can play the originals again haha.

we played the series on genesis at my cousins all the time so this has nostalgia up the orifices for me

Smacking other racers in the face with a metal chain never got old. I was terrible at the actual racing but at least nobody could overtake me!

I played it on my Amiga. Good times.

Played the original a few weeks ago, it's a little janky, but still fun.

I remember this being a Sega channel staple for me and my brother.

I remember the chain being the best weapon.

Road Redemtpion was supposed to be the "spiritual successor" to Road Rash. I don't remember it being very good, but it might scratch the itch https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Road_Redemption

I think you missed. You're replying to the post about Road Rash saying the game didn't hold your attention as long as Road Rash. You probably meant to reply to a comment, haha

Yes I do. Had Road Rash on the Amiga.

I can’t remember which game in the Road Rash series had it but the song Speed Home California is a certified banger.

They are responding to the body of the post, not the title. There is text as well.

Yeah, Road Redemption is great. I wish it had more varied environments, though. I think I just miss Genesis graphix

Oh, it's Road Redemption being given away. I bought this on steam a few years ago. Pretty good game, but never quite managed to capture the magic of Road Rash. Maybe it's just nostalgia talking though.
