Sledgehammer / Gear Grinder

Despite its age, this game is still pretty good.

I am 32 years old. My ex-wife and I have a daughter together, and we adopted our son together. Both are now 4 years old. When we were going through our separation, I felt lost and unhappy. I was self-destructive. One day, I was so angry with everything spiraling out of control that I punched a concrete wall in a moment of overwhelming emotion. This resulted in breaking my fifth metacarpal in my right hand—the hand I worked with, played games with, and used to carry my children to bed—the hand I desperately needed to ensure I could continue providing. Upon learning the severity of the self-inflicted damage, I became almost suicidal. Keep in mind that just a few months before this, I was the happiest man, with no history of depression or anxiety. I had never experienced anger outbursts, nor was I the type to break down and cry, but I was in a tough situation that truly prevented me from seeing the light on the other side. With nothing better to do, I looked for a game I could play WITH ONE HAND while recovering. Somehow, I stumbled upon this game and read some of the comments. I decided it was worth a try... I must admit I didn't beat the game, nor did I play as much as some of y…

I liked the original concept of this game. You are an escaped convict who get entangled with mob clans so you fight against both the law in order to escape and mob members and bosses. You have a license to destroy everything in your path (traffic cars, buildings etc ) and even receive bonuses for doing so. It reminded me of Carmageddon that I played in the 90's. You have a campain with many types of missions, like: armed truck races, battles with cop cars and other types of armored mob cars that attack you, slaloms, time attacks, deliver merchandize missions, protecting cargo etc..... Some missions are better then others. With time you upgrade your truck. Pretty simple, but very straightforward and polished. Graphics is ok. Buy only when on sale because otherwise it's too short for the price.

And this game has better reviews then ridge racer unbounded? It was a peace of old russian code that was like 20 years outdated even for the moment of its release. Didn't worse even that 30 cents I spent on sale.

Definitely enjoyed this game alot. This feels like mix of flatout and carmageddon for some reason lol. But i really hated the physics, too inconsistent and may cause you to lose a few times.

I managed to remember half of this game's name from when I played some demo of it when I was like 8 so I decided why not buy some old ass 2008 game that I don't even have nostalgia for but just happened to remember out of the hundreds of demos I downloaded on my moms pc. The game is pretty decent fun and the super cheesy acting and story I could barely even understand was pretty comedic.
