This was my second attempt at playing through this game. Unfortunately I remembered rather quickly why I stopped. Repetitive 100% gameplay, the driving becomes rather dull quickly, and the story is uninteresting. The combat is arguably very fun Arkham style with combos and counters, however it can get bogged down with the camera not zoomed out enough and being hit by an enemy off screen. There is also ALOT of animation locking where Max is not immune during it.

Overall, it's not a bad game especially if you're fond of a mind numbing grind, just not for me.

I'm incredibly shocked how this game represents the themes and identity of Mad Max so well. It really is written like a love letter to the movies, and has a lot of soul. It's a typical story that is over done, but it pays so much homage to Mad Max that I'm still happy to have it. Very overdone open world mechanics that get repetitive, but amazing car combat, decent fighting. Really wish they expanded on the concepts more. The ending was kind of a let down and it would've benefited greatly from either a DLC or post-game content.

This game is just okay. I like elements of it and certainly feels like it was made just for Mad Max fans (which I can appreciate).

BUT..... How did this game not include The Nemesis System from Shadow of Mordor? It is published by the same studio so it would have been super easy to implement and would have fit perfectly with this games setting. SERIOUSLY CAN YOU IMAGINE!?!

Would have really elevated this game and made it something more memorable.

Eu gosto bastante de Mad Max Fury Road, todo aquele punk, aquela podridão e brutalidade sempre me encantaram muito, e nesse jogo tudo aquilo que me encanta veio direto pra esse jogo, nesse lugar traiçoeiro com habitantes duvidosos.
O combate mano a mano é bem aos moldes de Arkham, com a diferença que aqui você é muito mais brutal, já toda a gameplay que envolve o carro é maravilhosa, realmente me sinto a 200 milhas por hora enquanto enfrento maniacos num fusca punk, o mapa é gigante, embora maioria das missões sem ser da historia principal sejam bem repetitivas.
Em geral é um ótimo jogo.

I was so curious about this game when it first came out but the mixed reviews and reports of glitches scared me away. So 5 years later and a good enough sale to make me give it a shot, I finally played it.

Its pretty much just an Arkham combat clone with cars. The car mechanics are really fun and I like that its impossible to make an ultra car that has maxed out stats in all areas. Taking out convoys is fun and charging into strongholds are solid too. Despite the melee combat being the generic style of combat thats gotten popular recently, which I've started refering to as "Counter Combat" its still really chunky and satisfying to beat the piss out people. Big bonus points to whichever programmer made Max do wrestling moves, big fan of hitting a war boy with a FAT ASS German Suplex. Dope shit.

A license game that plays it safe and somehow manages to succeed even without putting anything new to the table. Mad Max isn’t an easy game to recommend, it doesn’t do anything of note and those who would love it are probably two distinct categories: the fan of its setting, especially of the latest film – Fury Road, – and those who indiscriminately like open world sandboxes with nothing much to do except repeat the same chores and find the same meaningless collectibles over and over again. If you are familiar with any recent UbiSoft titles, that’s basically it.

This time tho you get a sick sport car and also the option to pimp it as you see fit. That is quite fun.

No really, the best part of the game is in its car. You can modify basically every part of it, it rides magnificently and sounds even better. You feel invested in upgrading it and it is a pure joy to ride it everywhere, inside sandstorms, on empty roads, during battles and as a battering ram during sieges on enemy bases. The world is a huge barren wasteland that perfectly reflects the setting of the original movies, but both the characters and the plot lack the insightful mind of the original author, George Miller, and the enjoyable and trash punchline of the 80s. Players are going to do quests and side quests more for the heck of it and a urge to complete everything rather than for any sort of attachment to the titular main character – a huge downgrade both from Mel Gibson and Tom Hardy tbh – or any other character for that matter.

Nevertheless, the game is engaging if played in small doses so not to feel loaded by its monotony and sameness. Avalanche studio certainly made it looks beautiful and it is significantly optimised for PC performances. If you just like strolling around in your ride and punch the everliving sh-t out of mobs with a combat system akin to the Batman Arkham series – because that was the combat system which was ‘in’ at the time – then this game will provide tens of hours of pure enjoyment and thrill.
