This gets off to a great start, sending you straight into a race in high-powered Mad Max mobile allowing you to learn the controls and have some fun doing it. Let’s investigate the career mode in Gas Guzzlers Extreme a bit more now than shall we? This is certainly where the majority of the action is to be had. But I am glad I got that monkey off my back early, because I would rather focus on all the good things that Gas Guzzlers Extreme offers because there are plenty of them. Yep, you read that right unfortunately! It seems absolutely crazy that a game of this type doesn’t have an online feature, it just seems to be such a natural fit. But, and prepare yourself for this, Gas Guzzlers Extreme doesn’t have any kind of online multiplayer mode. An interesting feature of this is that you can either play against your friends or form teams and play together, not something you usually see in games of this type. There is also the option of playing with up to four people in the local multiplayer mode. So that’s all the right boxes ticked straight away when it comes to single player.
Straight off the bat, Gas Guzzlers Extreme gives you the option of playing a full blown career mode, a single race to learn the controls or an old-school arcade mode. Like many post apocalyptic themed titles, Gas Guzzlers Extreme also seems to be heavily inspired by the Mad Max films too, most notably the excellent 2015 reboot. So if you are yearning for some originality you definitely won’t find here, not that that is necessarily a bad thing, certainly not in this case anyway.
Released for Xbox One, PS4 and PC by Iceberg Interactive this game is clearly inspired by many of the titles I have already mentioned. Favourites of mine over the years include titles such as So as you can probably imagine I was pretty damn excited when the first trailer for Gas Guzzlers Extreme arrived, a game that seemed to be right up my street. I have always been a big lover of arcade-style driving games, so it’s only natural that I would also adore the vehicular combat sub-genre.
