Rampage wii game review




















The three main monsters from the old games--George, Lizzie, and Ralph a gigantic gorilla, lizard, and werewolf, respectively --are on hand for this version, as well as a whole host of other monsters, like a Cyclops, a giant fishman, a giant squidman, a big rock thing, something that might be a jackalope, and others. However, no matter what monster you choose, you're basically playing the same character throughout. Each monster has a few specific stats that supposedly make them better for jumping, running, or smashing, respectively, but the tangibility of these differences is minimal at best, and the moves are the same across the board for every monster.

Each block has anywhere between four and 10 buildings to bust up, and all the while, cops, SWAT members, and military types will come after you with guns, helicopters, tanks, and the like. Apart from the occasional breaks you'll need to take to bust up the helicopters and tanks, there's really not anything more to the gameplay than simply breaking down buildings, moving to the next block, and repeating the process over and over again until you've destroyed the entire city. The attacks aren't even that interesting.

You just hammer on a button, hold down a button until it charges up a more powerful attack, or press a direction on the analog stick with a button to do a directional attack. That's about it. If the game gave you more to do with these attacks, that might be OK, but it doesn't.

The 2D-plane environments give the game a constantly recycled feel. You don't feel like you're destroying a unique environment every time--you feel like you're destroying the same environment over and over again, because in effect, you are. While the game really isn't much fun at all from a single-player perspective, there's enough multiplayer action to make things at least a tad more interesting.

Up to two players can play the main campaign mode cooperatively, but there are also king-of-the-city and king-of-the-world modes available for up to four players on the GameCube it remains two-player only on the PlayStation2. Both are basically the same thing as the main campaign, but with the specific goal of competing for the highest score.

In any multiplayer arena, you can go up and attack fellow monsters to try and knock them off their game, but there's not much you can do save for punching in their general direction. No cool special attacks or anything for some good, old-fashioned monster-on-monster violence. Again, the multiplayer only adds a bit of distinction to the overall experience. It's just inherently more fun to destroy things with someone else in the room to help out.

It doesn't make the gameplay any less repetitive or inevitably dull. Total Destruction does do a decent job of presenting itself. The monsters look quite good. They animate well, move nicely in the context of the environments, and are creatively designed. You get to play as a giant monster, terrorize city after city, eat people, throw cars, and cause a lot of mayham. That is until it gets repetitive.

All you do is destroy city af Rampage: Tolal Destrustion is okay, but I got it mainly because it included the original Rampage. I loved playing that game in the arcade that still had it, and people playing it, despite it being a really old game. You're Good to Go! GameSpot Reviews. Player Reviews.

In spite of the majority of the reviews, this is a fun game to play. The Wii version could have used a little more polish before it's In spite of the majority of the reviews, this is a fun game to play. The Wii version could have used a little more polish before it's release, but in my opinion, it fully captures the spirit of the old arcade classics.

It's not for everyone, but if you need a quick dose of mindless destruction, this is your game. I thought Rampage was a blast to play multi-player. While it may not be a big improvement on previous versions, it made decent use of the Wii I thought Rampage was a blast to play multi-player.

While it may not be a big improvement on previous versions, it made decent use of the Wii remote and is good considering its one of the earlier games to come out for Wii.

Without question, Midway could have done better. Total Destruction follows the Rampage pattern, letting you take out your bad day aggressions Without question, Midway could have done better. Total Destruction follows the Rampage pattern, letting you take out your bad day aggressions on all manner of architecture. The new gameplay mode is visually arresting and very engaging, but suffers from serious gameplay issues. The control schema applied to Total Destruction is sorely lacking in user friendliness; many moves require obscure button combinations or other movements, and the ability to tell the game exactly what you want to do is, in many cases, absent.

The most you can do is suggest. Perhaps the most serious fault, however, lies in the game's "3D" depth-based game maps. Where previous versions of Rampage had one row of buildings in greater or lesser width, Total Destruction creates a three-dimensional "block" of buildings, with more buildings to destroy behind those in front. The problem comes in when you try to selectively attack structures; most of the time, you will not start climbing or beating on the right building.

Similarly, attempting to counterattack when under fire from the military is haphazard at best. Now, on the plus side, someone at Midway was bright enough to include the previous versions of Rampage on the disc, and even the classic arcade Rampage looks and plays great on the Wii, even in multiplayer.

In short, buy the game for the legacy versions, and give Total Destruction a try I actually kind of like this game. It's not perfect by any stretch. It's repetitive and limited but I still kind of like it.

It isn't great I actually kind of like this game.
