You Need To Play The INCREDIBLE Mad Max Game (Retrospective)

- This is my Mad Max Retrospective.
Today we are reviewing Mad Max the game with almost everything being spoiled.
This is my first retrospective and mad max is a game I've always thought was underrated so why not make a nice lengthy review of mad max.
Still playing it and I'm currently at Lvl 24 rn. So freaking underated, I still can't believe that it came out in 2015 and looked way better than most games on these days.
This...This guy knows whats up.
Agreed I'm finishing grounded mode+ in the last of us 2 then playing it got it on sale for $5
Just started playing. I hear great things but he's got me a bit nervous when he says there's really just fifteen hours of enjoyable content.
Just a thought, imagine if they had used the nemesis system in mad max.
That’s like a match made in heaven I’m gonna be honest
@gomerjomer9209 imagine any regular scavenger kills you & they become a powerful captain with their own little outpost & guards. Imagine in vehicular combat, any car that destroys yours gets a more powerful car & a bigger convoy. Imagine if you died in the warcamp & the warcamp becomes more buffed out with stronger guards & more defenses. Imagine if you died to a warchief & that warchief becomes more powerful the next time you face him.
Imagine the ambushes & confrontations in the middle of the desert (just as a random electrical or sandstorm hit)
Imagine the different tribe of scavenger in your strongholds in each region & having to recruit & kill (& to be betrayed & overthrown by any random recruit or group)
Man, that nemesis system would literally go into overdrive.
@@antfrancis9941 Yeah exactly! It really makes me wish we can get a new mad max game because honestly the game is brimming with potentially to do cool shit like this!
Hot take but I actually enjoyed Mad Max more than both MGSV and The Witcher. Anyway glad your back dude. Dig your videos
Same here. Can’t wait to dive back into the wasteland now that my mad max juices are repumped
Nothing wrong with that.
I’d absolutely love a Max Max sequel. It’s a shame it got overlooked
Both those games are overrated, Mad Max is much better.
I picked Mad Max over MGSV and I was a big metal gear fan, but they both released the same weekend eventually I did play MGSV but I do not regret picking Mad Max…I had an absolute blast with the game and actually doing another play through now
Mad Max gave me that driving and destruction crave I was always looking for in Twisted Metal that Sony was never able to do. I wish Sony would do something like this with the TM franchise. You pick a character and play through a story.
Pretty solid retrospective man. I did the same as everyone else played a few hours and launch and turned it off as it felt to much like all the other open world bloat from the time..
But iv just played threw it last week and man was a wrong...what a special game, your right they cracked the code, it's super repetitive but for some reason it just dose not get boring. The open world and hand to hand combat in particular holds up even to 2024 standards.
I just started playing it for the first time. Bought it for $3.79 on CDKeys. Such a steal. Already like 12 hours in (played in one go) and it’s killer! The only issue I’ve noticed is a lot of the bosses are copy/paste and there’s a lot of open-world repetition.
I just finished the game today and loved it! I think the reason why the repetitiveness dosent get to you is because of how the leveling system works like when I was playing anytime I did anything I never felt like I was wasting time like I always had a goal that was achievable in a pretty quick amount of time which never got me bored and is one of the reasons why I love it
Probably gonna buy this game now, thanks king! Love the videos! 👑
Hope you enjoy it King!
It does get repetitive at times, but just roaming around the world is worth the price of admission.
This game is a keeper.
I'm moving over a lot of my sticky man content onto this channel so sticky man refers to a different channel :)
I feel like Just Cause and Mad Max had a lot of potential to be 10/10 games but the story and repetition drags them down quite a bit. I still remember playing Just Cause 2 as a kid and having a lot of fun in the gorgeous open world. My immersion kind of broke when entering the cities since the NPCs were really dumb and uninteresting but other than that I could lose hours exploring the open world with the parachute or by driving fast cars. Still can't believe that game came out in 2010 !
Man just cause really is one of those franchises that you could boot up, lose hours of your life too and not remember a damn thing
I love it lmao
The same feel, amazing)
I love mad Max, but I do agree on the repetition companies gotta start doing away with all the map markers and checklists. It takes away from exploration.
"Mad Max" came out the same Day as "Metal Gear Solid 5", so it's no wonder it got burried.
Great first retrospective. This game is so fuckin tight too. Haha. I played 26 mins of it when it went free on PS+ a few years ago. With Furiosa’s hype train feeding MadMax content into my algorithms, I decided to give it a fair shake this time and I’m hooked. Be great to see this expanded on but not holding my breath.
I'm crazy. I liked the story (so basically I liked the ending that is an hour long after 30h of subtle buildup between fetch quests) and I was sad for Chum. Also Hope motivations kind of made sense with her being a slave and seeing that Max is a bit more normal than everyone else so she tried to do whatever to get a better life for her daughter
Not too many other games you can drive such an iconic car such as the interceptor. Main character has an Aussie accent too. I suggest to watch the first couple movies to really appreciate this fantastic game.
Extremely underrated. Playing a run of it now, on the Steam Deck which runs this game like butter!
I was just about to look this up, but thanks for answering my question unwittingly :))
To say that the original movies are no longer culturally relevant is crazy.
The world around us looks more and more like 1979's Mad Max every day.
The asthetic of Mad Max 2 "The Road Warrior" (1981) in particular, essentially defines what most people still think of when you say "Post-apocalyptic".
Tons of modern entertainment has been directly influenced by them. Fallout, Boarderlands, Doomsday, Saw... the list goes on.
South Park has referenced it multiple times. The Simpsons, even Rugrats.
Hell, the Dreamworks lizard movie "Rango" has a tanker chase that's a direct homage to Mad Max 2.
And that's just cartoons.
Anime? Akira. Fist of the North Star....
...
In the same way that George Romero created a genre with Night of the Living Dead, so too did George Miller with the Max franchise.
I like the kid but he sometimes has the weirdest takes, like he didn't do proper research. Also besides the things you refered the amount of movies made in the 80's and 90's copying Mad Max's style is ridiculous.
@@MBulldog1979 It practically kept the Italian film industry afloat for a decade. 😆
@@tommc3622 if you haven't check the philipino ones. Mostly directed by one Cirio H. Santiago. Low budget yeah but you can get quite a kick watching them. The so bad it's good kind.
@MBulldog1979 I absolutely will.
I love me a good "bad" movie.
...
Edit: Didn't recognize the Director. I actually own "Stryker", "Wheels of Fire" and "Equilizer 2000" on VHS.
Looks like I need to find "The Sisterhood". Haven't seen that one.
Good stuff.
Thanks!
I’m learning a lot with this comment 💀 had no idea it was that influential, just going off my thought I genuinely saw them as just cool apocalypse movies but damn
Also the room has to be one of the best worst movies of all time
LISAAA
i've been looking for a Mad Max review that covers the plot and isn't just some dude who played for 5 hours (like me lol) THANK YOU SIR!
Loved the vid! Rediscovered mad max when going through my games, had to give it another playthrough, still held up even then
A criminally underrated classic.
Replaying it again for the 3rd time, I absolutely love this game, saw Furiosa this past Sunday and I really loved it, made me wanna play the Mad Max game again, and I will be watching Fury Road again this weekend too, and I may even see Furiosa a 2nd time as well. I love this franchise and I love George Miller.
I bought this because it was on sale one random day on ps4 and fell in love with it and the car combat. Now I'm replaying it on xbox 😂
Only 5 bucks on game pass right now. Totally worth it. Just started last night. But had played it years ago but never finished cause my ps4 crapped out.
Not game pass but the store lol
The game was so good your ps4 accepted defeat lmao
@@JacksGameReviews it's better the second time around. Cause I'm actually focusing more on upgrading the car and max lol
Story wasn't great but you completely ignored the most important part. That being the constant implication that max lost a wife and kid. When you think about that the hope and glory thing isn't early as out of place.
Im beyond glad I brought mad max on a sale 2 years ago.Although it's difficult to find a physical copy (Not entirely true amazon has a new copy for $25) I had a ton of fun playing the game.With the combat being the thing that surprised me the most.Which reminded of the batman arkham games mad max is a solid game that unfortunately got sabotaged because avalanche studios released the game i believe a couple weeks after just cause 3
“Scrotus” is in the new mad max movie
Quite a bit of the universe that we see in the game appears in Furiosa.
George Miller was behind the overall story of the game.
It is canon.
Chumbucket is in Furiosa as well. I absolutely loved this movie.
Apparently the female characters character and kid will be part of The Wasteland movie if it gets made too as was part of Miller's novellas just like Scrotus etc
Avalanche did Rage and Rage 2. Similar vibe and action to Mad Max but a bit glitchy, still good though.
Mad max actually released the same day as MGS V here in the states im pretty sure. Also id say the story fires it well as another max story, especially thinking of it as s supplement to furiosa and fury road. It could really fit right between the two stories and not break lore
Gotta talk about shadow of mordor & shadow of war too. WB? Arkham trilogy? (gotta include origins too)
If only WB had just stuck with their winning formula.🤔
Oh yeah the shadow series is fantastic, weirdly excited to see how they use the nemisis system in the new wonder woman game that apparently exists, just a shame they patented the system so no one else can use :/
Mad Max fury road came out in 2015
Yeah but what happens to the dog u save u leave in the ship while it explodes? I was like oh surely they brought the dog. Nope no doggo. Doggo gone, but u can watch the ship continue to explode while it's in there whike you keep playing.
The dog lived
That's what i tell myself :/
Nide video i liked watching it :D , where are you from? if u dont mind me askin .
The uk lad
Specifically the West Midlands 🌝
@@JacksGameReviews i knew it but i was scared to offend you , as i learned the hard way that if they are scotish or irish somtimes they dont like that xD
I’m not quite done with the game yet, so should I hold off on killing scrotus until I can 100% it?
From what I can remember, you’ll go through the ending but will still be able to drive around afterwards with Chumbucket to get your 100%
How often can you use the shot gun
If you’ve got the bullets and your in range, fire away :D
This guy thinks no one has heard of Mad Max and no one cares about him as a character? what a fuck
Dont know the full story but imagen what this game could have been if things hadny gone the way they did. It was otiginally gonna be set as a sequel to the fury road movie, thats why Max has nothing but himself in the end. Something along the rights fell through that ended up butchering the game in the end a bit.
I still have this game installed from when I brought it 2 months ago, still havent played yet.
Give it a shot man! If you have a few hours free boot it up and get into it, you won’t regret it :D
I bought it on sale for about $5 and still have yet to play. I'll get to it though
Mad Jacks game review
this was boring as shit. keep it up
10/10 comment right there
It's pretty obvious why it failed. (It's based on a book, which is a story) Mad Max is about the story, literally the sad, gruesome story... so a game made by a company that made Just Cause. It's a game with no story, just blowing stuff up..
So yeah, of course that failed
They completely missed the point of the mad max.
The only thing they got right was gameplay. Which is awesome
But what is an open world game if the world isn't engaging you. A failure.
This is a very opinionated retrospective, not very informative, not very structured jumping around the story and points to make.
Why are you explaining how things work 3/4 through your video. And not even that well... you even say it's 'hard to talk about let me show you', yet you are trying to do a video where you talk about it....
' I don't know what a retrospective is'
Shame on you.... lazy youtuber
