An FPS that doesn't overstay its welcome, RAGE is a game filled with intense action and fun easter eggs (try looking for the goalposts). I've played through it twice on the XBOX 360 and three more times on Steam.
I was thinking about this game the other day after playing “Mad Max” and how I would love to revisit it again. It did many things better.
I have memories of the prologue, the world building, the combat, and the driving, all of which were fun. I just wish the story was finished.
I've replayed RAGE countless times, unlocked all the achievements (minus the multiplayer ones) and absolutely love it. I feel RAGE deserves more love than it gets, and it certainly deserves a spot on GOG amongst all the other id Software titles.
It may feel different to previous id titles, but it still had charm and pushed graphical capabilities at the time. RAGE truly feels like it's one of a kind.
As more and more id Software titles are added to GOG's storefront, Rage's absense only feels more glaring to me. Arguably the "ugly duckling" of id's line-up, even moreso than Doom 3, I believe Rage is a historically important game, both for it's game design and technology, and deserves a spot on GOG's storefront as much as id Software's other titles. Let's make it happen!
iD software's own take on a apocalyptic setting, Rage is a game I bought way over a decade ago at the GameStop bargain bin! Fell in love with its charming characters, upgradable weapons, customizable vehicles, and unforgettable levels. While its not a perfect game with lack luster boss fights and an ending that was unsatisfactory, it still left its mark in my heart as a game I will never forget. From finding a VaultBoy bobble head to meeting certain criteria to unlocking classic Doom and Quake rooms, Rage succeeds in its world building. Rage should NOT be ignored by the younger gamers as its Vehicle racing\combat, unique weapons, a pretty fun card game and craftable little spider robot that shoots along side you :) begs gamers that iD software's unique world shouldn't be forgotten!
With Doom the dark ages out, I hope iD software returns to rage and preferably keeps it 100% in house (unlike 2).

Dead Island: Game of the Year EditionA tropical island resort becomes a place of nightmares after a mysterious epidemic turns the majority of inhabitants into bloodthirsty zombies. As one of four playable characters, your goal is to complete missions necessary for your survival, which means battling throngs of the undead with a variety of customizable weapons and finding a way off the fictitious island of Banoi.
Dead Island features an open-world environment in a campaign that supports up to four players for drop-in, drop-out cooperative action. The two male and two female characters have different strengths and weaknesses, which can be offset to a degree by leveling up. Experience points earned in combat can be used to improve a character's attributes and fighting skills.
When firearms and ammo are in limited supply, you'll be able to engage enemies in hand-to-hand combat with axes, machetes, knives, clubs, and similar edged or bludgeoning weapons that will degrade over time. Explore the island's urban areas, forests, mountain highlands, caves, beaches, and other locales from a first-person perspective, or utilize an over-the-shoulder view for melee combat.
The "Game of the Year Edition" for Xbox 360 includes new blueprints and weapons, the original Dead Island, and its two main DLC releases: the multiplayer "Bloodbath Arena" and the single-player "Ryder White" campaign.Action Horror Survival
