    While LocoCycle doesn’t scream next-gen visually, it is a lot of fun to play.

    Lococycle is as hard to put down as it is hard to love. Even if the comedy scratches your itch, there will be times when the shortage of depth and aversion to polish become impossible to forgive.

    Lococycle is full of Twisted Pixel’s wacky brand of humour and is animated excellently, but the limited gameplay just holds it back from being a must-have.

    If you're looking for a weird update to the likes of Road Rash or Carmageddon then LocoCycle is certainly of that mould. Just don't expect the sheen or polish of the developer's older titles.

    If you’re looking for another game to squeeze your brand new Xbox One this is not your lucky day. You better search somewhere else.

    The implementation is rushed and slipshod, however, ignoring fundamental problems and expending limited energy on the wrong things. What you're getting for your money feels a little like somebody else's office in-joke: you can sense the well-intentioned laughter, but you can't really join in.

    LocoCycle is a true turd, one of those games that shouldn't even exists and meanwhile makes the achievement of ripping gamers of 20 euros. Closer to a PS2 game in its graphics, the game is boring, scripted to the max, very short, repetitive and with gameplay that limits itself to spamming three buttons and doing a few QTE when asked. Only a few jokes will make the gamers abused by the ads smile, but the smile will quickly fade away as the scenario unfolds. A new milestone in the hall of shame of videogames has been set on the back of an Xbox One that really did not need that for its launch period.

    Sheer old school gaming bliss!!! This game is fast and fun...the side chatter between Iris & Pablo is hilarious. Loco plays like the gamesSheer old school gaming bliss!!! This game is fast and fun...the side chatter between Iris & Pablo is hilarious. Loco plays like the games from the 32 bit era...big boss fights, hordes of enemies attacking at once and finding patterns to exploit enemy weaknesses. It's a shame so many people don't appreciate this game for what it is simple straightforward fun!! One of my favorite titles of all time.… Expand

    Gameplay is simple but has variety, gaming sessions are not too long and ..well..the game is relaxing!
    The FMV scene are fun and there are a lot (in FMV and actual gameplay) of 1980's and 90's reference.
    It's a mix of old minigame and some sort of simplified version of old arcade like Chase HQ ,Final Fight and Lasergame quicktime events.
    Buy it on sale like I do (about 2 dollars) ..... it worth every penny for 5 hours of play.
    Reccomended if you are looking for a very simple and short humorous game and if you have some years on your shoulders to understand all the old pop-culture jokes.    … Expand

LocoCycle is one such fun idea on paper that just fails in being actually fun to play. Though its redeeming feature is the cheese of the live action elements that are purposely bad and fun because of it yet the in game comedy is hit and miss.… Expand
