It's not just you Matty, the car is meant to be a slow to respond pain to drive until you start getting the upgrades, I mean it's slapped together from junk and spare parts at first.
More and more people discover this one all the time, loved it when it came out. The car and on foot combat feels great. I remember this, sleeping dogs, prototype, singularity, wolverine origins, captain America, Alpha Protocol, The Saboteur and so many other “mid tier games” that are some of my favorites to revisit.
I feel like Sleeping Dogs has aged poorly in my opinion. Enjoyed it when it came out, went back to the remaster a few weeks ago and just couldn't get past the jank
Its genius lies in the fact that when you start out it seems a bit simple and kind of repetitive but as you move on it becomes a whole lot deeper than that. The world is vast and incredibly varied and the storms are really scary. Everything works fast and seamlessly with a great gritty style. The sound effects and explosions are visceral and unashamedly violent. I love it.
@@martinramirez9647it’s underrated in the word that it got no critical success and a sequel was never confirmed. It released in between fallout 4 and mgs 5, same day as mgs 5 I believe
I did a whole playthrough of this game on PC last year. It can be repetitive I get that, but it was a game where I could just turn off my brain, play it and have fun, I really enjoyed it.
One of those games that really stuck with me the last generation. I may be in the minority but this is in my top 10 of favorite games. I think the world is what really sold this game for me. It's desolate and pretty barren, but it felt incredibly immersive, and when you did find a point of interest, it just felt that much cooler. Paired with engaging car combat and driving physics that actually felt good, I highly recommend this game for anyone that has an interest in open world games. Also I'd recommend Rage 2, which a lot of the same developers from Mad Max worked on that game. A bit of a spiritual successor.
Rage 2 is the true hidden gem. Favorite game of last generation and pure “fun” distilled. While also great, Mad max has become well known. People still snob their nose at Rage 2.
The way this game does collectibles is so good cuz it feeds into the upgrade system, just like Far Cry 3 did and Far Cry 4 perfected, the collectathon is for upgrading your existing gear not just for the sake of it, and you are not being showered in non unique random *replacement* gear. Far Cry 4 did it the best imo where you had to get the skins of animals you hunt, habitats being restricted by area which improves the pacing of the game, and then when you get the second to best level of "ammo pouches" you get a quest to hunt like the "white rhinoceros" to get the last upgrade for your ammo pouches. I really prefer this system to just collecting journal pages 1/140
Arguably, the post-apocalyptic settings that likely inspired the Mad Max movies and Wasteland / Fallout are rooted in literature. Harlan Ellison's novella "A Boy and His Dog" was published in 1969. Alan Dean Foster's short story featuring vehicular combat dates to 1971 and his "Why Johnny Can't Speed." The first Mad Max movie hit screens in 1979. Check 'em out!
I actually love this game! The overall presentation was loud and awesome, the car combat was one of my favourite parts of it!! Might just boot it back up again after watching this! 😁
Criminally underrated game; discovered it last year and doing my 2nd play-through now. Wish the online resource gathering features weren't shut down though.
When I played this game for the first time, I was so surprised by how underrated it was. I had an absolute blast with it! The car combat is so cool and works well in this game, especially during those crazy storms in the wasteland! In my opinion, it's one of the best movie-based games.
Played it almost exactly a year ago and now finally downloaded it again and installed a mod that lets me toggle the HUD. Haven't started a new game yet tho. Been just driving around and enjoying the scenery. Clearing those few little hideouts that I've had left and trying to find find all the history relics. As well as doing as much roleplaying as I can. One of the things I do in the game RP-wise is taking off and on Max's gloves, gauntlets, armor, jacket and shirt in their most sensible order as well as not wearing the strongest armor or weapons at all times. I just love the vibe of this game. What I'd like to see in a sequel would be having it be less of a Ubisoft-style checklist game as I feel like it's a bit opposed to the scavenger lifestyle of that world. And speaking of scavenging; one of the things I'd want to see would be what Avalanche had originally planned for The Big Nothing, where it was meant to be procedural and you were find upgrade materials there. In general I think games should have more massive expanses of eerie nothingness.
I purchased this game 3 days ago on my Xbox for a lil' less than 5 bucks - money super well spent i gotta say and man does it still look graphically neat, given it's nearly 9 and a half years old. 👌🏼
So funny I added this game to my wishlist. Got a notification that the game was on sale and got it. So funny you mentioned the early game driving because I am literally having the same problem. Great review!
Mad Max is quite focused around punching and driving, but the attention to detail surrounding those simple elements is masterfully crafted.Great art design can trump great graphics, Mad Max has both!
Well said. I play this gem at least once a year ton completion. The car combat, fighting style, environment and overall feel of the game just hits different
Hey Matty, loving the retrospective reviews. You're by far my favourite youtuber right now, keep up the great work! I've been meaning to play this game on steam deck soon!
4:03 That's such a weird way to say that. Mad Max came out first and inspired Fallout, but the way it's said in the video makes it sound like the opposite.
I mentioned that you do a review for this game like a month or 2 ago and I am so glad you are doing it! This was my wife's first game that she beat and loved it to death. A highly underrated game that either needs a reboot or another entry.
I had it in my library for a long time and after seeing Furiosa i decided to download it and start playing it. Now I can’t stop. Such a fun game and so addictive.
Well, I just started playing it for the first time yesterday and then this video ended up in my recommended. Three missions in and I am hooked, despite not being a big fan of open world games.
At this point id love to see ANY game implement the nemesis system! It was such a brilliant means of crafting unique in game mini stories, they patented it and its been shelved ever since. For those interested i believe Mad Max is $5 in the PS store. Much love Matty!
One of the best games ever made. This was to the ps4/x1 generation what Red Faction Guerilla was to the ps3/360. I loved this game and still have the preorder poster on my wall.
Been playing it again recently. Had it on my ps4 and recently upgraded to a series s and when I saw the game on sale for 5 dollars I instantly bought it. The fps boost to 60 makes it even more fun than before.
"Name a better punch" Matty I BEG you please do a retro rebound on The Warriors. No game has come close to having the same level of brutal combat that we had in the wonderful gem of a game
Fantastic game with the main storyline and locations in it from furious too even when completed can do activities from the movies like helping people, scouting camps and convoy attacks
I’ve been playing this game off and on for I don’t know how many years I know I have well over 250+ hours. There are just some games out there that are like me unique to people like who sings that these games deserve more credit know personally i’m still playing the original prototype that was released in 2009 and it still holds up despite there being a very doll storyline it’s the combat and the gameplay that keeps few of us gamers still engaged.
It’s an incredible game, great to see the Easter eggs in the new movie as well, Scroutus and Chum bucket, scroutus should be a lot bigger but still good to see that character in Furisoa.
Another game with amazing free flow combat that I love is Sleeping Dogs. Such an underrated game as well with a pretty decent story as well, but the combat in Sleeping Dogs reminds me of the combat in Mad Max which is awesome as well
I loved this game when it came out and agree that everyone should at least try it for the visceral combat alone. It's usually on sale for less than $5 on pc and well worth picking up.
I didn’t know this game existed (just got back into gaming recently after taking a decade long break from it) and holy shit, this is the exact type of game I’m looking for. I love Fury Road and had no idea this was a thing. I’m burned out from Doom Eternal and need a new experience.
I don't know what made me but the game in the end. Morbid curiosity. So fed up of previous film to game ideas being crap so this didn't help my reservations. But man it's a brilliant game as it turns out and hope there is a sequel!!
I literally just got this game because someone bragged about how awesome it was and they weren’t lying. Some of the missions get repetitive and that’s fine but it reminds me of True Crime LA with all the driving all over God’s not so green earth!!
This was one of my favorite games of the 2010s. On top of the broader "open world fatigue" that was starting to come in when this game released, there's also the factor that it was also essentially a movie tie-in game. By this point we all had a couple decades of experience telling us that movie tie-in games are always terrible. This of course is the exception, maybe the single best exception to that rule. Speaking of the movies, the first movie isn't actually post-apocalyptic. Its basically set right before the apocalypse. Where resources are starting to grow thin and wars are kicking off all over the globe over them, meanwhile at home criminals are running rampant as governments with fewer and fewer resources struggle to do anything to stop them, and even when they do manage to bring someone in a feckless justice system just lets them right back out again, and while things haven't completely fallen apart it feels like that's right on the verge of happening. Crazy... imagine living in that world!
Will pick this back up after finishing Automata, never finished it my first round. After watching Road Warrior and Fury Road im in the mood for some car war!
I might have missed it, but how about the free camera mode with slow motion, free roam camera etc. I made some awesome short films with this one like I did with Driver back in the day!
Just bought the game. I met some thirsty wretches in the desert, wanted to give them some water. As soon as the first drop touched the guy's lips, two cars (one of them packed with explosives) came outa nowhere and decided to ram into us head on. The cars ran over the wretches and both exploded, also killing the drivers. I was completely unscathed, surrounded by 5 corpses and 2 blazing wrecks. That was THE MOST Mad Max thing I have ever seen in my life.
The game was originally gonna be more of a direct tie in with Fury Road, with the director even changing parts of THE MOVIE to better fit the game's narrative But due to many moments that caused the budgeting to skyrocket that project got shelved but then was brought to another team
I played this so much after getting it on ps+ ages ago. I never advanced much on the story lol I burned myself out clearing out map objectives and just roaming around. I even had a butt rock playlist I had while playing lmao
Have you played the Fist Of The North Star game made by the Yakuza devs? It’s got some pacing issues and some major grinding, but it’s pretty fun once you get into it. Especially when you upgrade the combat and you’re doing DBZ like ki blasts
Great game, one of those games I would suggest my mates should check out but for whatever reason they never did (despite liking the films) still have my steel case version and one of the few games I got 100% achievements on and still once in a while put on just to drive about the wasteland and get into some vehicle carnage.
Having a ps4 copy unfortunately ps5 didn’t get any upgrades. Bought it for xbox series x with 60fps, this is so much more enjoyable. Underrated gem for sure.
Legitimately one of, best licensed tie-in (sort of) games ever released. And one that not NEARLY enough people played. When people debate with me about what some of the greatest/most realistic motorcycle physics are in a game, I point them to Days Gone. When people debate about amazing feeling car physics...I point them towards Mad Max.

I'm 50h in, half the story done, and I think it's a very good game. There are some issues, it's a bit repetitive but it's still fun. Not sure if there would be a Mad Max 2 game, but I want a Road Warrior game :p
Played the game last night I was inspired by Furiosa. The game is really fun! I kept saying to myself what if they made this game on a new gen console 😮
I remember playing mad max on game pass like 5-6 years ago and I loved . but it got taken off game pass before I could beat it and I was sad but then forgot about it . I should check it out again

Mad Max still has some of the best car explosions ever in any game.
If anyone knows how to blow things up in a video game, it’s the Just Cause developers.
Best explosions in general! Fantastic visual effects in this game
It's not just you Matty, the car is meant to be a slow to respond pain to drive until you start getting the upgrades, I mean it's slapped together from junk and spare parts at first.
Really makes you feel the desolation and hopelessness at first. Haha
Spare parts bud.
Fist of the North Star Lost Paradise does this too
@@grapeape325pitter patter
Mad Max with the Nemesis system and the lore and locations in the game. My god that would be tight

The storms yeah.
Storm coming seek shelter, Shit, Where I am? SHIT! Nowhere!!! 😂
I love that they use water and food for your health management
It's an underrated gem this one, i feel like it doesn't get enough love honestly
add in the fact that u can buy the game for practically nothing on everything, best £2 i’ve ever spent i think
Yet everyone on the internet says so, when absolutely everyone says it's underrated, is it really?
This game, alongside the Witcher 3 Complete Edition, best purchases I've ever made, I spent easily over 150 hours on each game, dirt cheap too.

My fav avalanche studios game. Need a sequel or I'd love to see them do a Waterworld game
I imagine we will get another after mad max the wasteland comes out
It is a shame the game doesn't have a ng+ mode, taking down convoys while listening to the fury road ost was something else man
bro ive been beating this game every couple of weeks for years, ill never stop playing it
Call this man Mad Matt
@@rianholmes1139 LMAO ! haha
5:23 YES damn free flow combat with Mad Max is exhilarating 😃😃

Mad Max is quite focused around punching and driving, but the attention to detail surrounding those simple elements is masterfully crafted.Great art design can trump great graphics, Mad Max has both!
I'm glad we can go back and look at these games from the 2010s and have an honest overview of them, see what works and what doesn't.
I been playing this too! I remember starting with scrap metal and my car is soooo good now it’s great just to jump in

I BEG you please do a retro rebound on The Warriors. No game has come close to having the same level of brutal combat that we had in the wonderful gem of a game
I thoroughly enjoyed my time playing Mad Max, and I would recommend playing it with some old school 80's and 90's Thrash Metal in the background.
Great game. Excellent Photo Mode too. For a game set in endless rock and sand, its a real looker. I'd love a sequel.
Fantastic game with the main storyline and locations in it from furious too even when completed can do activities from the movies like helping people, scouting camps and convoy attacks
Finally loaded this game up in 2024 one more time...and it finally hooked me. 60fps on Series X was a nice surprise too.
I went back to this recently and it was refreshing and fun to play.
Excellent video, and great introspection into your own growth - and the industry’s era
It's one of my faves, I wish they'd make another one, so much can be done with the lore.
I’ve been playing this game off and on for I don’t know how many years I know I have well over 250+ hours.

This is my personal favorite and best game from the PS4/Xone generation.
I'm happy you shouted out Mafia III, Matty! The game was lacking in areas but I thought it was good!
Another game with amazing free flow combat that I love is Sleeping Dogs. Such an underrated game as well with a pretty decent story as well, but the combat in Sleeping Dogs reminds me of the combat in Mad Max which is awesome as well
There's an Easter egg for "Shadow Of The Colossus" in the game too. Nice & enthusiastic re-review. :)
I loved this game when it came out and agree that everyone should at least try it for the visceral combat alone. It's usually on sale for less than $5 on pc and well worth picking up.
I still find it weird that WB was able to patent the Nemesis system
Loved the game actually picked it back up before going to see furiosa it’s cool that the main villain from the game is in furiosa
such a good game played it when it first dropped on PS4 and now im replying again on PC .. its a gem such a underated game
Got this game for £3 on a sale a little while ago, one of my best game purchases its so underrated

Redownloading it, playing it again for the 3rd time
I just started this today on XsX. I’m enjoying it and it looks decent with 120fps w/ Auto HDR. Chumbucket!
Idk if you ever played or did a video on rage 1 and 2 but I think you’d be interested in those games
I enjoy the hell out of this game and come back and play it again about every year or so. I love it, gonna start another play of it.
Hell this is one awesome game. I love riding aroind for hours and shooting everything that moves. Collecting scap never felt so good.
I recently went back to platinum this game. What a day! What lovely day!
It’s absolutely criminal that more people haven’t played this game. And the graphics still hold up to this day.
They nailed the feeling of this it’s closer to the films almost mad max 3 !! The film we wanted to get
I might have missed it, but how about the free camera mode with slow motion, free roam camera etc. I made some awesome short films with this one like I did with Driver back in the day!
Bro I freaking love this game and I’m only 45 minutes in. Just feels so unique bro
Been playing through this one for the first time in the past month. Really damn good, if i say so myself!
I found your Chanel while riding the fallout 4 hype train in 2015💀 dawg you have come so unbelievably far lmao
Thanks for reminding me of this game. I really like it. Have not finish it
I bought MM when it came out. I've played it through 4 times. Games a blast.
This was on sale for Xbox at the same time Furiosa came out. Playing it for the first time I'm kicking myself for not playing it sooner.
Really atmospheric game..loved it
Just bought the game. I met some thirsty wretches in the desert, wanted to give them some water.

Legitimately one of, best licensed tie-in (sort of) games ever released. And one that not NEARLY enough people played. When people debate with me about what some of the greatest/most realistic motorcycle physics are in a game, I point them to Days Gone. When people debate about amazing feeling car physics...I point them towards Mad Max.
I'm 50h in, half the story done, and I think it's a very good game. There are some issues, it's a bit repetitive but it's still fun.
Not sure if there would be a Mad Max 2 game, but I want a Road Warrior game :p
Played the game last night I was inspired by Furiosa. The game is really fun! I kept saying to myself what if they made this game on a new gen console 😮
I remember playing mad max on game pass like 5-6 years ago and I loved . but it got taken off game pass before I could beat it and I was sad but then forgot about it . I should check it out again
