Not backing this. Road Rash never had guns and this frankly looks like a very, very generic motorcycle/fighting game that really has very little to do with Road Rash.
I don't want to agree with you because I really, really want a new Road Rash but I do agree. Go back to the basics of what made the game so great and the buyers will follow.Originally Posted by Bojay1997

Can I ask you this because although I try to make my game knowledge look vast and impressive and such..... What other games were ever released that were just like road rash american release that is. Because I don't recall another game like that. Closest I can think of is maybe Mario Kart and its knock off games but that was kart racing.
Speed Kings on the Xbox was similar. There was also Jacked which was released in the US on PC and in Europe on Xbox. In fact, this looks like a port of Jacked from the shots I have seen so far.Can I ask you this because although I try to make my game knowledge look vast and impressive and such.....

Seems like there are lots of kickstarters lately where they try to use the love and admiration for an old game, and basically try to use that to kinda screw people over into backing projects that might not really be on the up and up so to speak. Some of this kickstarter shit needs to start backfiring in a major way to mitigate this a bit. Every other day there is a kickstarter claiming to be the spiritual successor to such and such. Or the spiritual remake or whatever.
The sad thing is, this will probably get the funding.
Kickstarter is becoming an electronic version of panhandling.
I don't want to agree with you either, but I have to. Road Rash was not about shooting people, cutting off heads, or blowing up their opponents by kicking them into oncoming traffic. I really don't like the that aspect of it alone. Road Rash had memorable music that I still love to hear today. This did look pretty generic and just didn't remind me of Road Rash in the least. The only thing it really has in common with Road Rash is the fact that you're on bikes.
I won't be backing this either.
