Video Game Reviews of Carmageddon 2: Carpocalypse Now
Customer Review: Classic! More Fun Than Any Vacation!
Summary: 5 Stars
You gotta love this game!
This is one of the most hilariously violent games I've played! With goodies like the opponent repulsificator and the solid-granite car, delight and laughter takes me over every time sit down to play Carmageddon 2.
Exploding pedestrians, pedestrian flame-throwers, the pedestrian electro-[...] ray... these are power-ups you can get in the game! Whether you turn your opponents into scrap metal or act a fool around the gigantic levels, the fun does not stop.
And the game has a way of scaring you. I recall being terrified at so many moments while playing this game.
Examples: Is that Hans Abba around the corner? Where is that vicious dump truck? My car is in awful shape and I can't find a repair power-up.
You can pop-wheelies and in certain cases go so fast that you can commit suicide. The game has incredible value because you can purchase your trashed opponents cars. If you get into it, you will feel the need to progress.
The game is about much more than destroying other cars. Some missions are wacky beyond belief. One I recall involves killing mental patients that have escaped from an asylum. That is one of the harder missions.
The game is long, there are plenty of missions, and if you don't feel like killing people, you can always race. This game is off-the wall. It's like combining Grand Theft Auto, Simpsons Road Rage, and Burnout 3. And it's over 5 years old!
This game is a classic. Let us not forget the kangraoo bounce power-up. Nor the low gravity mode. Nor the hand-brake... man I love the hand-brake. If you have the time, play this game until you get good enough to appreciate the madness within.
Oh yeah - the sound track is by Iron Maiden. This game is awesome!
Description of Carmageddon 2: Carpocalypse Now
The world's favorite smash and trash racing game is back, bigger and badder than ever! Carmageddon 2: Carpocalypse Now has the same formula of fun, freedom, and splattering action that caused so much attention in the first release.With a game manual labeled "The Max Damage Offensive Driving School," you can rest assured that Carmageddon 2: Carpocalypse Now isn't a typical racing game. Instead of the usual scenario--where the program guides you from one point to the next--Carmageddon 2 actually encourages venturing off the intended course. The goal? To search for power-ups to collect and objects to smash, including other cars, animals, and even pedestrians. Players are awarded special scoring bonuses for knocking out other racers and as many innocent bystanders as possible. Carmageddon 2's copious amounts of blood and destruction create a game that's unsuitable for younger players and the squeamish.
Interplay's Carmageddon 2, the sequel to the equally controversial Carmageddon, offers the same mayhem as the original and adds a host of new goodies: 33 new cars, 30 expansive tracks, and 90 wacky power-ups (such as "jelly suspension" and "low gravity"). Controlling your car couldn't be easier, and Carmageddon 2 boasts one of the most realistic physics engines ever used in a racing game--in gamer terms, expect plenty of impressive crashes. With vivid 3-D graphics, explosive sound effects, and an Iron Maiden soundtrack, Carmageddon 2 ensures large doses of mindless fun, but the over-the-top violence and redundant gameplay wears thin after repeated sittings behind the wheel. --Doug Radcliffe
