![]() Bodies go flying early and often and there’s plenty of blood flying as well, though this is also where the game reminds me just how much it falls short of other titles that offer the same kind of mayhem. The music certainly gets me in a killing mood and when it comes to killing, business is good. This might be an addition specifically for the 2015 addition to a series that has been running for more than 20 years. ![]() Of course, it’s been so long since I actually played another Carmageddon game, it’s possible that I’ve forgotten that the original didn’t have any techno in it. The other way I could accomplish goals and win the round in my “career” was to run over as many people or destroy as many other cars as possible.Īll of this was set to the background music that is a staple of this game, which is a combination of techno and heavy metal. In other words, in order to win rounds, I didn’t necessarily needed to finish first in whatever race I was running. Luckily, the game brings the same kind of ‘side missions’ as previous versions in the series had. ![]() There is plenty of racing too, though, like other Carmageddon games, causing as much damage and destruction always surpasses any desire to see if I could actually win a race here or there. "There is plenty of racing too, though, like other Carmageddon games, causing as much damage and destruction always surpasses any desire to see if I could actually win a race here or there." There is plenty of crash-em-up and kill-em fun to be had in this game. Reincarnation is everything that did indeed make the series one of the most popular games in its generation. If they were looking for a game that was going to bring a great deal of love and admiration back to the series then they have fallen short. If that was indeed the aim of Stainless Games, then the company did indeed pull off what they set out to do. Anytime a title has something in it like “Reincarnation” you know this is more about bringing back some of the old things that made the predecessors so good and then adding a little something extra for flavor. Now five editions into the Grand Theft Auto franchise, Carrmageddon: Reincarnation seems like a warmed over relic, but then again it was never supposed to feel like some brand new idea. If you are anything like me, you grew up in the golden age of video games, where a title allowed you to just drive around and kill anyone and blow up anything that got in your way.
