Enjoy!

The Rage games have such a love-hate relationship with me. There's a
lot I like about the games -the art design, the boom-shooting- but
none of it ever really seems to gel together into a game that's
entirely fun to play. It's so aggravating when I get a game like that,
because you can SEE the talent of the developers but for whatever
reason all that skill never quite comes together in a terrific
experience.

The "Rage" games aren't terrible. They're fine games, actually. But
given their pedigree, they should have been AWESOME... and they're
not. That deficency tends to make me judge them more harshly than they
deserve, I think.

Maybe the best thing to do is, if you play "Rage", is pretend it is a
Eurojank game and be pleasantly surprised at how good it is in
comparison to your expectations. ;-)
