The game constantly tries to bring laughs with it's references to things like "Back to the Future, or just with it's immature sense of humor. The 8-bit graphics are charming and the retro tunes and sound effects are appreciated even by me who did not grow up in the 80's. As far as presentation goes it is straight- up old school, which isn't a bad thing. It can be mindless fun to shoot bad guys and mindlessly run over civilians, and the throwback levels will bring a smile to the face of those who played the games they are based off of, but ultimately the affair seems rather mindless and an unfair difficulty spike at the end of the game means that some might not finish the game. It's mix of open-world and twin-stick shooter gameplay ultimately comes together to create a solid experience, but nothing you do in the game is particularly impressive or memorable. For the rest of us it is a minor distraction at best. I tries it's hardest to bring both new school and old school style gameplay together in order to please gamers from all generations, but in the end I feel like this will only truly please those who grew up in the 80's. Those with more modern tastes should probably look elsewhere, because nostalgia is the only thing that will keep gamers from overlooking the many flaws this game has. With it's 8-bit graphics and constant retro-throwbacks, this is sure to please the right crowd who are looking for something to bring on With it's 8-bit graphics and constant retro-throwbacks, this is sure to please the right crowd who are looking for something to bring on nostalgia. In the end, I would sincerely recommend this to anyone who grew up playing the NES, absolutely loved GTA 3, and/or enjoys leaderboard competition. It's a treat if you're in on the joke, but only passable if you're a bit more casual about your entertainment trivia. All of this is packaged into a ridiculous story, with an absolutely ludicrous amount of references ranging from Duck Hunt to the Virtual Boy and even Minecraft. It wouldn't be very fun if it didn't control well, but from driving to head-stomping and everything in between (except the needless cover system), RCR handles just fine. The crude graphics diminish the sick nature of some of these games, which actually works to its' benefit. Like the best arcade games of yore, RCR compels you to strive for an ever higher score in several dozen short, simple, and fun mini-games.
In fact, any activity you created in GTA 3's sandbox is here, except with an emphasis on leaderboard support. Remember the morbid fun you would have trying to survive with a 5-star rating in GTA 3? Well, RCR provides that very same experience (and intensity) while also providing a competitive goal. The game plays out very much like an NES version of GTA 3 (complete with an almost identical map layout at times), but with far more structure. The real draw of the game is the sheer volume of content. The music is vintage chiptune, which isn't for everyone but, what's there is well done, if not entirely memorable.

On the plus side, the cutscenes are well illustrated. Everything is rendered well enough that you can easily distinguish everything from one another. The initial charm of the overworld graphics fades pretty quickly, but it never gets in the way. For everyone else I would suggest trying before buying.
