Road Rash debuted on the Sega Genesis in 1991. The game takes place in California, on progressively longer two-lane roads. The two-player mode allows two people to play alternating. There are 14 other opponents in a race. A port of the game was released for the Amiga, and various scaled-down versions were made for Master System, Game Gear, and Game Boy. The Game Boy version is one of two licensed games that is incompatible with the Game Boy Color and newer consoles in the Game Boy line.[2] A SNES version was planned and then canceled.[citation needed]
Road Rash was released in 1994 for CD-based platforms such as 3DO, Sega CD, PlayStation, Sega Saturn, and Microsoft Windows. It features a number of changes such as the ability to choose characters (with various starting cashpiles and bikes, some with starting weapons) before playing, fleshed-out reputation and gossip systems and full-motion video sequences to advance a plot. The game features all-California locales: The City, The Peninsula, Pacific Coast Highway, Sierra Nevada, and Napa Valley. The roads themselves feature brief divided road sections.
Road Rash 3D was released in 1998 for the PlayStation. The game is mostly not based on sprites. The race courses were pieced together from an interconnected series of roads. The game has less emphasis on combat in exchange for a stronger emphasis on the racing.
Road Rash: Jailbreak was released in 2000 for the PlayStation, with a handheld port released in 2003 for the Game Boy Advance with the same title.[3] New features include an interconnected road system and two-player cooperative play with a sidecar.
There's like the first 1991 game exclusive to the sega genesis and it's sequels, 2 and 3, but then the road rash for 3do came out in 1994, it was ported to PS1 in 1995 and then to Sega Saturn and PC in 1996
Road Rash is an updated version of the classic first road rash sega mega drive. In this game, you have to participate in illegal and very violent street racing. There are three modes in the game - Big game mode, thrash mode, and mano-a-mano. In big game mode, you can select your favorite riders from the rider list; you can check their profile as well. And all riders look like gangsters and obviously ready to start their nasty and violent bike ridings.
One of my favorite thing on this version of road rash is Big game mode, which is like career style mode. Here you can pick your maniac, qualify to play longer and harder tracks, earn money by winning, and move up the ladder in the rider's billboard. Little touches like chatting with the other racers in the club are pretty cool.
At first, you'll start racing with an old bike. Earn money by winning the race and buy better bikes. Winning games will allow you to unlock longer tracks. Though you can win by playing fair, I highly recommend the dirty race. Grabbing, punching, and kicking the opponents while riding is pure fun. You can also hit the general people beside roads and while crossing roads. That's sounds pathetic, but let me tell you the truth. It was more fun back then when we were younger.
One of my favorite "if I had a million dollars" pipe dreams is to have a road rash on the Jaguar. The 3DO Road Rash is the pinnace of the series (imo) and i'd love to see that ported to Jaguar CD someday. Are there any technical limitations that would stop the Jaguar from being able to handle that game? I think the top 3d games on the Jaguar (Skyhammer, Battlemorph, Battlesphere) show that the Jag is capable of graphics on that level, but I wonder if there is something about the way that game is coded that would make trying to run it on Jaguar a nightmare. Thoughts?
I believe it could be done with the Jaguar CD since it opens up the same options as the 3DO as far as streaming information, which is the way it was done on the 3DO for Road Rash and The Need for Speed and Crash n' Burn and others. B.J West's interview has him stating that Black Ice/White noise was using a similar streaming 3D engine. In any case, the Genesis' Road Rash 3 was pretty impressive and I am sure the Jaguar could do much better speed wise (FPS) while upgrading the graphics significantly, on cart or CD. Then there is the CD comparison of Soul Star on the Sega CD and Jaguar CD to give one an idea of how graphics might be improved on a Jag version. But even if the Jag (which I do not believe, I'm playing Devils advocate) couldn't handle a game like The Need for Speed with it's polygons, it definitely can handle the sprites used for the vast majority of graphics in 3DO Road Rash and I see nothing to the polygonal landscapes to indicate the Jag could not handle it, especially with the Jag CD streaming it all. Look to the 60fps of the Jag's Super Burnout for a clue, and even if that speed was reduced to 24-30fps it would still be as good or better than the 3DO Road Rash which runs at 24fps. But chances are we will never find out for sure.
Super Burnout uses a similar game engine to Genesis RR games but is much, much faster and smoother with HUGE sprites. Just picture it on the open road instead of tracks, with digitized sprites and fighting like Road Rash. There you have a RR that would blow away 3DO RR and ALL RR's before the full polygon versions on later 32/64-bit systems. Who needs the polygon road side landscapes anyway? I'd prefer one like Super Burnout and 60fps ANY DAY over 3DO RR. So why even wish for or try a Jag version of 3DO RR, let's get a superior 2D total sprite version like Genesis RR and SB on the Jag! We could then have a great CARTRIDGE version for all Jag fans and maybe and extended CD version with a killer R&R soundtrack for Jag CD owners! Hell, it wouldn't even have to be digitized sprites like Genesis RR3 or RR on the 3DO, it could be great hand-drawn sprites like Super Burnout or RR2 on the Genesis!
The more and more I think about it, I say SCREW 3DO RR and even attempting a version like that on the Jag, whether it can be done or not. Let's get a totally beefed up Genesis RR on the Jag! Because, come to think of it, I still prefer RR2&3 on the Genesis to RR on the 3DO. And a Jag version with spites as large as 3DO roadside graphics would be frick'n AWSOME.
Race courses are littered with everything from hills to traffic to roadside obstacles that can hurt a competitor or the player, and since the races run in real time, crashing is costly. The racer is ejected from the bike after a crash or if the racer runs out of stamina (shown in the bottom-left corner of the screen) from fights with opponents. In this event, the racer automatically runs back toward the bike, though the player can alter their course and avoid incoming traffic with and or stand still by holding . Stamina recovers over time. Opponents are likewise ejected from their bikes if their own stamina is depleted (shown in the bottom-right corner of the screen).
The bike has its own "damage meter" between the racer's and opponents' stamina meters, which decreases every time the racer suffers a crash. The bike is wrecked if the meter fully depletes, which ends the player's participation in the current race and deducts the cost of a repair bill from the racer's balance. Motor officers make sporadic appearances throughout the game's tracks, which can also end the player's participation if they apprehend the racer following a crash, also deducting the cost of a fine from their balance. If the racer lacks the funds to cover either a repair bill or a fine, the game ends.
The Master System version of Road Rash retains the vast majority of content over its Mega Drive counterpart, though most of the graphics were re-drawn for the smaller resolution and fewer colours given by the hardware. On the Master System, the top speed is lowered, and much of the road-side scenery has been removed, and there appears to be fewer racers on the track at any given time. While the track layouts are broadly the same, hills are less pronounced on the Master System, and take longer to complete due to the aforementioned speed issues.
All digitised sound has been removed, as has the rev counter in the HUD. The Game Gear port is much the same as the Master System conversion, but has to reduce the size of its HUD further in order to fit all important details onto the screen. This also means less of the road is visible to the player.
Another interesting feature found in this game was the interconnected roads. Instead of just a large race track for each level, there was a whole road network. Each race basically plots a route through the area and has a start and finish. This allowed for mixing and matching of features found on the map like forests, beaches, slums, and even large downtown skyscrapers. While some elements may be recycled on each race, there was always at least some sort of curveball thrown at you like a slightly different rout through downtown. This was a big strength in the N64 game and it was great to see that feature found in this version as well.
Road Rash has long been a favorite among those gamers with a penchant for blood and speed. Originally released for the Sega Genesis earlier, the first version sported unprecedented graphics and action that was fast enough to give the player a real adrenaline rush. No other motorcycle game before Road Rash had been this realistic, and certainly none had incorporated combat. Each of RR's many incarnations since has offered graphic improvements upon the original and has taken advantage of the varied platforms' power, but all have failed to be as inspiring as they could have been. Until recently, the game lacked a critical competitive element; after all, it's really not much fun to wail on a fellow "rasher" with a chain if you know they're just part of the game. If that "rasher" is being controlled by your roommate or your girlfriend, however, the action takes on a whole new dimension. With the new Windows 95 version of Road Rash and its eight-player capability, the old standard now has the power to addict.
