    There aren't many racing games with guns these days, probably because cars'n'guns combination is not easy to make but in GG it works nice. It's a great game with extraordinary graphics, looks better than some
    AAA titles. Vehicle damage system is really detailed with parts falling off all the time. Tracks are ok, well balanced and set in various environments (desert, canyon, woodlands, alp    s etc.). Car physics and handling are ok and there is nice dynamic camera with RGB /DOF shifts when you hit something or get damaged. It's like Death Rally but more serious, especially if you choose to play with FPS/hood cam.… Collapse

    Bought on Origin...excellent stuff....real Death Rally successor. This is the game I was waiting for ages. It is the best game and I am sure Serbian gamers will enjoy a bit of Croatian flavour.

    Are you looking for an old-school flavored game? Kind of like Mario Karts, but more serious and "realistic" shall I say. Then this is the game for you, lots and lots of fun. Graphics are completely awesome especially for the cars and particle effects. Tracks are all right, could be better honestly. The fun level is very very high (I must note that AI is somewhat challenging). Replayability is also rather high consider how fun multiplayer is.

    In one sentence, I recommend this to anyone who is looking for an awesome driving combat game which have been lacking on the market lately.

    Graphics: 9/10
    Sound: 8/10
    Gameplay: 10/10
    Replayability: 10/10

    TOTAL: 9/10 Highly recommended    … Expand

    Cars + guns + drunk driver = lots of fun!

    Gas Guzzlers is a combat racing game. You can refer to it as a spiritual successor of Death Rally. It contains lots of cars, tracks, power ups, upgrades and tons of destructible objects. The graphics and sounds are in range of latest AAA titles. The best part is that you can customize the options to a degree that the game will run smoothly on olde    r PC's and still look good. Also, it contains a lot of humor, almost around every corner (from different sponsors to funny voice over).

    The singleplayer campaign (and AI) is challenging, but the real fun lies in multiplayer and the possibility to blow up real opponents (preferably your boss, co-workers, friends :) )    … Expand

    Awesome game....I must admit that I did not play such a good and funny game for years. I just adore Arnold Sch voice and humour around the game. Thumbs up guys, this is showing the world how are the people from south east europe funny...

    It's a fun game full of action. The graphics are great and I love the level design. Missed this kind of games on PC. Ridge Racer and Dirt Showdown being such a disappointment made space for games like this... The patch made it even better! (Or I'm just a bad driver :) It's a game of skill and it punishes every error so the first win or entering another level is sweeeet...

    Usually I don't like racing games but this one caught my attention. The graphics is great but I was mostly impressed with engaging and addictive gameplay. The game does a very good job in making me enjoy shooting my opponents and tearing the metal from them. There is a decent selection of cars and weapons and there is also a set of powerups that spice up the races. On the downside, the game is hard even on easy. Sometimes it can be frustrating to repeat the race 5 times to get in a first 3. It is not that hard when you learn to play, but still. The good side of its difficulty is a sense of accomplishment when you fight for your life and eliminate the opponent at the last moment. All in all, a good game with a lot of potential.… Expand

    Good ideas that fail to materialize. That's the summary of this title, that ends up being simple and repetitive. It has some positive things, but it won't keep us playing for too long.

    Atavistic PC racing for when you want to party like it's 1995. [Sept 2012, p.61]

    Gas Guzzlers: Combat Carnage offers nice controls and decent graphics. Oddly global game design is poor and you may need to be bored before reaching the full potential of the game.
