Road Rash 64 is a good game. The gameplay is easy, the bikes are cool, and the music is great. The graphic could have been a little better and I definitely recommend having an expansion pak for this game. Overall, though THQ has produced another winner that is worthy of your fifty bucks.
GREAT GAME

WHO CARES ABOUT THE TEXTURES OF THE BUILDINGS?i mean here is a serious racing game that finally lets you beat the other racers senseless and the music rocks it is cool to play through a career with a budget(i.e you crash you gotta pay repair bills)... mario kart and diddy kong racing were just too childish but had the necessary weapons and pranks to play... i guess this is as close as we gamers are going to get to a cruisn/vigilante 8 type game so grab this one quick

I bought this game for my brother for Christmas, and both of us love it! (In fact, I made him leave his N64 at my place for a week :) The graphics are good, the sound is great (both the effects and the soundtrack), and the gameplay is outstanding. Both single-player and multiplayer are lots of fun. The physics are excellent, especially when you crash! The combat is a riot (especially with the great sound effects). The only (very minor) disappointment I have is that there are only two songs on the soundtrack, so they get a little repetitive. I guess that's due to limited space on the cartidge though. All in all, I'd say this is a must-have game for N64 owners!
Fantastic. But...?

This grandmother biker hasn't had this much fun in ages (or participated in "bad acts" without becoming actually antisocial). However... Not enough tracks, not enough games; very disappointing. I beat this thing in three days. But, then, I went back and started all over again with new character and bike... (This is addictive.) Also, on my unit, none of the "controller-setup extras" seem to function (become a Cop after winning, faster bikes, etc.), therefore surmise the "Expansion Pack" is a must (have none this moment, but will have ASAP). Yet, even with these annoyances, I LIKE THIS GAME.
worse graphics than the NES

This game is fun to play, but the graphics are terrible. The terrain is green, with some very sparsely placed trees and signs. It is fun to beat down other racers with pipe, chain, hammer, etc... but the bikes are nearly impossible to control at full speed. The expansion pack for the N64 is the biggest waste of money i've ever spent. It does NOTHING to help the graphics or sound quality. multi-player saves it from the graveyard.
Great GAME!!!

This game is awsome,,, Unfornitly for me I lost it I dont know wear but anyway
Multiplayer could provide a hour of good fun with 3 friends
You can Free play for pratice and even do compatation
and there is a cool selection of bikers
its also funny like when yu get last place you win,,,, like a stick of gum,soap,and even caffine-free soda.
I suggest buying it
Graphics are O.k., but the game itself is Awesome!

Road Rash 64, the continuance of the very popular biker, beat em up game of the early 90's is a very good game. I will admit that the graphics are sub par. They're not as textured and vibrant as the Playstation version (even with the Expansion Pack) but this is all about the game play.
It's your basic racing game but you get to beat upthose road hogs and sunday bikers. Don't you wish you could do that during rush hour? Along the way you get some pretty cool weapons like a chain, nunchucks, a kendo stick and a pipe wrench. Very cool and makes the game that much more fun.
The game unfortunately goes a little too fast but it's still worth it. I'd pick this one up because if there were any really good combat racing games, this was one of the good ones.
Mario Kart for Adults (A.K.A. Cop Party)

(...) I originally bought this on the bargain rack to sell but I couldn't stop playing it!!! This game ROCKS!!! It is SO MUCH FUN it's just unreal!!!
Everything about this game is well done. Somehow, there are lots of music and lots of tracks and lots of scenary and lots of action. So, why aren't ALL THE OTHER N64 games like THIS ONE??? The biker humor is right on. Consolation prize for almost winning: bar of hotel soap! The wrecks are U-N-R-E-A-L. Head-on with fast moving cars and trucks hauling timber,etc. I think it's one of those physics-deals again. The wrecks are so natural I think they programmed the laws of physics into the game, they must have. At slower speeds, you might not flip, but you might "almost" flip. Your rear tire starts to pop up but you didn't go over. I love the road - so pleasing to watch it flying by, DOESN'T give me a headache, very smooth! Looks just like real macadam - different textures, etc. Anyway, totally smooth motions, very satisfying racing feel, SO FUN!, never the same action twice I guarantee it. The bikes are so totally different, too. The pocket rocket and the chrome street bikes ride totally different. The motors sound completely diferent. Great AI. Awesome songs! A must-try N64 game!!!

I remember spending hours playing this game when I was younger, however some of that fun has worn off because of better options that have come out over the years. Still, it's always fun to bash an opponent or a friend off their motorcycle with a bat, a chain whip, taser, or whatever you have at your disposal. It's still fun to jump over cars by popping a wheelie or to watch someone hit a car or another object causing themselves to crash, or to hit innocent bystanders. The motorcycles are still cool looking along with the characters, but the character models are recycled along with your environments. The graphics look bland and too blocky by today's standards as well. But it never really gets old to hop on your motorcycle and bash an opponent off their motorcycle.
Fun for 5 min, gets old....

I played this game at a freinds house. At first it was a bit frustrating because I didnt know the controlls. Later on learning them, it didnt get better. The collision detection on the attacks (one of the main parts of the idea of road rash) was horrible, i'd swing the weapon right through people at times. Then the mercy rule was way to strong. I'd purposely sit there not driving for almost 20 seconds and then within 10 seconds I'd be caught up and in first place usually. The races are completly random, usually the person in last place with 10 seconds left wins. I usually like to play bad racing games forever but this game held my interest for 10 min tops. Buy Mario Kart or Diddy Kong Racing.
