Rampage World Tour

Get the game at Amazon.com!

Reviewed by Brendan Kemp What Rampage World Tour is about is you are a big monster. You go from day to day destroying cities. Every day you go to a 'new' city. You do this, as far as I can tell, forever, or as long as you like. The game has no end and no point. Well, there is a point and that is point less destruction of cities. You are supposed to be getting back at your boss for morphing you into these strange creatures, but that has now effect on game play, except for the strange little scenes in between your pointless destruction of one city and the next. This game is pathetic, worthless junk. Don't waste your money (or your time) on even renting it.

Graphics 7 out of 10

I'd have to say that this is the part of the game that surprised me the most. After we picked our guys, the screen came up and I moved around a bit. What?? A side scroller with 2-D graphics?? Give me a break. At that point I almost blew the game off as trash and almost didn't play it. But I figured I might as well play it, just because it was there. As I played more, it seemed that this was one of those cheep arcade games with lousy graphics. Yet, then, as I played more, I realized that that was what the designers had intended, an arcade style game that was fun never the less. I think in the end, the graphics arn't the thing that kills this game, but they are a big part of the disappointment. I gave the graphics a 7 because that's the way the game was designed to be, and it didn't work.

Music and Sound 3 out of 10

Nothing special here some blah sound effects that sort of mushed together, because they were all happening at the same time, didn't really come out. Therefore, they weren't really noticed. As of the music, if there was any, I sure didn't notice it. That's for the better, because if there was music, it would just make the sound effects more mushed. I think the game is missing a really big element here, seeing that most great games have good music/sound effects. I gave it a three because the sound effects are there, although they are hard to hear.

Game Challenge 2 out of 10

Before I got sick of this game (that was very quickly) I went through endless amounts of the same stuff. And all through it, there was no challenge. I went through day after day of destruction, and occasionally I was 'killed' if one of my fellow monsters took it upon himself to kill me. Right afterwards, I would grow right back and keep on playing. Since there is no end to this game, you cannot beat it, so I can't talk about that. It's really easy, to put it plainly. I gave it a 2 because some extremely, extremely inexperienced player might die once or twice. My little sister, (4, no experience with games) did fine just punching random buttons and using the control stick.

Game Play-Fun 3 out of 10

I'm am giving a 3 to be nice to the game. It really doesn't deserve that in my eyes. The only time that this game is fun is when 2 of your friends are playing with you. When you do that, you are always getting in each others way and accidentally picking fights. If you want to destroy a building, it is hard to get up on it some times. If you want to eat people, it is annoyingly easy to do something you don't want to do, like punch the monster next to you. Blah, Blah, Blah. It's all just pointless destruction - a really good waste of your time.

Frustration

I had frustration with the controls, the monotony of it, how dumb it was and the thought that I could be doing something better with my time while my friends were over, like GoldenEye, Mario Kart 64, Fifa '98, 1080 Snowboarding, Star Fox 64, NFL QBC '98 or even Wave Race 64 or Cruisin' USA. Any of these would be much better than spending any time with Rampage World Tour.

Replayability 4 out of 10

You know, I don't really want to play this game in the first part. But, you know, the multiplayer is the one and only good thing about this game and if you enjoy the multiplayer, then you might pick it up again. But, as I said before, this game isn't even rental worthy, and I would not play this game again, even if I had the chance FOR FREE.

Game Value 0 out of 10

No, absolutely not. I would not consider dishing out $5 for this game.

Overall 2 out of 10

This game stinks!!! Big time. Don't waste any of your money or time on this. Don't even waste any more of your time considering this game. Stop reading this review. From whatever angle you look at, Rampage World Tour is bad. If we were back in the ages of the original Nintendo, maybe this would go into the libraries of video gamers as their second favorite to the Mario Bro. series and Zelda and Link and RC Pro Am 2. But not in these days. And especially not for N64.
