Road Rash 3D is the 3D version of EA's motorcycle combat-racing franchise. Illegal races with punches and weapons translated into 3D. Less charming than the 2D versions but preserves the raw adrenaline of Road Rash gameplay. For series fans wanting a 3D franchise experience.

Description
Western EA Canada 3D motorcycle racing, three-dimensional transposition of the Road Rash series. Created by EA Canada and Electronic Arts, released in 1998 in the United States, Europe, France and Germany with multilingual versions under the Road Rash 3D title. Five American regions in open 3D, over twelve unlockable bikes, in-race kick and chain combat and licensed rock soundtrack. European multilingual editions.
The series' move to 3D by Electronic Arts, Road Rash 3D keeps the brawling motorcycle racing principle on long open roads, with blows landed on rivals and flight from the police. The sense of speed, the rock attitude and the grunge soundtrack keep their identity, in larger environments. The floaty handling, the clipping and an uneven production have aged poorly against current standards. A snappy motorcycle game to recommend for series nostalgics and fans of aggressive retro racing.
