Playing the single player. I'm really not even thinking about the MP. The game is so smooth, and the gameplay so well executed. You might not even care about the MP

Not saying that the MP is bad. It's just the campaign on the right level is very addictive.

What version are you playing? 360 or PS3?

Got this from GF today, 8gb install wasn't so bad. Game so far looks and plays nice.

This game comes with 3 full dvd's?

Wow, the single player campaign mode must be huge !!!

2 of the dvds are for the single player and the third one is MP.

The main thing I look for in a video game is fun, and Rage delivers a ton of fun. A beautiful looking game and simply a blast to play.

Yeah, agreed on all fronts. I was on the fence a little after reading some of the reviews. Very happy I bought it.

But, even if the story isn't monumental, the gameplay and the graphics are.

I was feeling the same way after playing the first hour last night, that this was not quite grabbing my attention. I gave it more time and really enjoying the game. Not sure if things change later on, but I wish that you could pick up weapons/ammo from fallen enemies. So far that is my big drawback. From a graphics and gameplay standpoint, this is very well done. There are some parts at times where the graphics make you think like WTF were they thinking with the color palette that was used, but other points where the game really shines.

Zombie, you can pick up things from enemies. usually they have bullets or money on them. just go near them and look down on them.

I press X next to them and usually pickup money, but haven't seen much for ammo. There was a point where I ran out of ammo and had to use my fists to get through one section. I just barely made it out.

I wish the subtitles text was larger, it is too small. LOL!

You can find ammo also. I don't think you can find weapons on the ground though.

There are tons of things like this spread throughout RAGE giving a nod to their past. Kind of awesome if you ask me.

Whenever they fix the PC issues I'll pick it up.

I'm surprised at the number of problems PC people are having with this game. Not sure who is to blame on this, but here is a link to a list of possible fixes for some of the issues...

At this point it looks like no crossfire/SLI support at all !!!

Re: Rage (iD Software's new FPS using their Tech-5 Engine)

All the graphics issues were fixed for me in the latest ATI drivers but the game crashes when I try to load a new area so it's unplayable. Very disappointing good thing I'm addicted to Dark Souls.

Dont know how true but everything I read is that id went from their roots and concentrated on console version (especially memory issues) which screwed pc up. They didnt even include any graphic options in PC version....
We'll see how it pans out.
