What players are saying
Counted from the reviewers’ own thumbs up/down on the 41 English Steam reviews we collected, not by the AI. Valve’s all-language rating: Mostly Negative (27 of 90 positive).
Many players find Road Rage to be a broken, unfinished game with terrible physics and poor controls. [1][2][3] Some reviewers enjoy it as a hilariously bad experience or a decent budget title. [1][4][5] Several posters criticize the lack of graphics options and inability to change controls. [6][7][8]

This is one of the biggest pieces of trash I've ever played. It's absolutely hilarious. I have now played this game several times over. The "story" is awful; in the beginning of the game they tried, but later on they got so lazy that it is almost nonexistent. The voice acting is laughably bad. The game looks terrible, and the insane pop-in when you first start the game sets the tone for the rest of the game. The AI …

I don't honestly believe this game should get all of the hate that it does. Certainly not a perfect game, it still has its silly fun. The story is a bit out there at times, the voice acting ranges from decent to truly suspect and the odd glitches can be hilarious (hitting a pedestrian can sometimes send you into into the 1200+mph range). That said, I tend to rate games on whether I am having fun or not and this game …

Go play Road Redemption instead, seriously. This is an absolutely appalling, no effort experience. Calling it "unfinished" would be giving it too much credit. "Unstarted" would be a more accurate assessment. It lacks polish in almost every area (You can literally pop a wheelie while your at 0 MPH without falling). The bike-to-bike combat is dead simple and brainless. There is no sense of speed. Oftentimes your bike …

Road Rage is an open world motorcycle racing and fighting game. On paper it sounds like a worthy successor to Electronic Art’s Road Rash. Sadly, in reality it falls very far from that. This could be forgiven if Road Rage was a good game in its own right. After all, what game holds up to our childhood memories? However, dropping all comparisons to any other game Road Rage is frankly the worst game I have played this …

This game is literally a repetitive hell the whole game is just playing the same ♥♥♥♥♥♥ missions over and over in the same areas. However the forest region looks quite good. Almost every motorbike feels like driving a cardboard box and the combat in this so called game has some of the worst controls i have ever seen its legit hard with most bikes to hit people. Also the fact that you have to hit 1000 pedestrians …
Summarised from 34 of the 90 public posts collected about this game; every point cites the posts behind it ([n] opens the post) and the split is counted from the posts’ own ratings. Updated Oct 10, 2026. How summaries are made
32% of the 41 Steam reviewers we collected recommend Road Rage. The complaint that keeps coming up: physics and bike handling are broken and unrealistic. Deal-breaker or nitpick?
Critics, per Wikipedia
Upon release, Road Rage received "generally unfavorable reviews", according to review aggregator website Metacritic. The PlayStation 4 version holds a 27/100, while the Xbox One version holds a 33/100.

(Video Version of Review) https://youtu.be/7tbRy1wJfNU While the world building clearly takes inspirations from from the older GTA title (even including "zones") it is nowhere near as inspired or charming; with the environments far more lifeless and bland, but not terrible either. In fact if I had to sum this title up it would be just that, it's really not terrible! The handling and…

The physics inside this game is so bad that it makes you wanna refund the game. Looks like the bikes don't fully hit the ground and instead sit in the air. Please fix the somewhat transparent ground as soon as possible because it makes the game disgusting and almost unplayable imao and feels like I'm playing WipEout only with flying bikes like it's…

And they sued the devs of The Simpsons: Road Rage for using a similar mechanic Anyway dumb video game patents are dumb and boycott the new Crazy Taxi over using genAI 👍

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's like Road Redemption except the bike handles poorly, it has really sketchy physics, the combat isn't very good and you're driving around in circles and slowing down for tight corners in a drab urban area instead of blasting at high speed down big open highways or jumping between rooftops. Also there are no graphics options, not even the most basic stuff like resolution settings or switching between windowed/fullscreen mode, and you can't customize the controls.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Can't change controls. No Video options. Can't even make it Full Screen (can only play in Windowed mode). Every time you hit a person with your bat it does a forced slow-motion. I played for about 2 minutes and uninstalled.

positive · AI labelView post →Like with Simpsons Skateboarding, it was the Tony Hawk-series. For Hit & Run, it was Grand Theft Auto. For Road Rage, it was Crazy Taxi... The Simpsons Game was pretty much anything they wanted it to be, tackling all kinds of different styles and genres.

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Just picked this game up on sale for $3.99. Kinda wish I could give it a moderate review, it's not THAT bad but 2 glaring issues I can see are steering physics (example when turning the bike it stays straight up) and there is no simple way to exit the game back to steam menu. Other than that, it's alright for $4!
