Rage for PC Reviews by Gamers

I actually enjoyed the action of the gameplay quite a bit more than the story, as it makes innovative use of physics when in a firefight. Enemies that you shoot are either knocked off balance, stunned momentarily, or sent careening away if charging at you and you connect with a limb or bodypart with your gunfire.
Some of the minigames are interesting, but most are a little dull, and you can tell the influence of design for consoles in the control schemes. Translating these into the PC version leaves a little more to be desired, as they can turn into simple, single-button timing games really easily.
I did enjoy the art style and overall feel of the graphics, but here's where the major issue I had with the game came up. Since it is essentially a port from console, the game was optimized for the under-powered nature of console technology (comparitively speaking). Since I was playing it on a newer PC with a very decent, overclocked graphics card, I expected to be able to run the game on max settings quite smoothly, as I have been able to with other graphics-intensive games (Crysis, FarCry 2, Battlefield 3, etc.). This was not the case - it shudders horribly, has screen tearing, and gets poor framerates, even with in-game menu adjustments dropped to minimums. Apparently, id and Bethesda did not adjust the config files to allow PC gamers to fully use all of their system resources (Vram, RAM, etc.) creating what appears to be a serious bottleneck. There is a workaround on the Steam forums that can help alleviate this (it involves creating your own rageConfig.cfg file), but I only discovered it after finishing the whole game.
That was a little frustrating.
Anyway, it is a fun FPS, with a bit of Mad Max/Roadwarrior/future apocalypse flavour added. Definitely worth the $10 on sale. If you are going to get it on PC, I highly recommend following the instructions on the Steam forums and creating the config file...
