Heavy WIP of an OC I made for Riptide GP. He doesn't have a name so far but the idea is he's sponsored by a brand of milk tea so I could reference Royal Blood

Game 57: Riptide GP: Renegade Apr2024 I'm kinda mad at myself for not getting into this game sooner. Legitimately, one of the most fun and interesting racers I have played out there! From it's aesthetic style to it's trick system to just really neat and interesting tracks that are put on display. Riptide GP Renegade may not have a lot of content like some other racers do, but it squeezes out so much of what it does have to give you not just a satisfying racing game, but overall game experience throughout it's career mode.

My only real complaint for Riptide Renegade really just lacks good music, and attitude to it's overall design. The game screams an aesthetic that rivals Sonic Riders in terms of racing, but there really isn't any vocal feedback from the game or rambunctious music to go along with it. Often I found myself digging everything I was seeing, but my ears just weren't catching up with the vibe. I get the game is trying to waver a dystopia type of synesthetic music, but it was killing the flow more than anything else. Which sucks because I wouldn't call anything in the OST bad, just doesn't fit for this particular game.

While I wouldn't call the amount of tracks we have for this game plentiful, I would call them each unique and interesting in their own right. From down hill races to dynamic tracks that change every lap to even just the way the game adjusts itself to give them a different feel with some new added element. Riptide Renegade is chaotic in a fun and practical way that makes you want to adjust yourself to be good while still giving you something familiar to focus on. It's these kind of elements mixed together with the trick system that really help innovative how someone masters the game, and honestly I'm kinda hooked on the way it does it.

Even the trick system, which usually is pretty barebones in most racers, is given a detailed moveset and benefits the player when executed properly. You can't just pull any given trick on a jump or pathway, and often the game has plenty of hidden places for you to perform tricks on to get advantage, or even make yourself a short cut. This isn't even getting to the amount of boost you gain from the tricks, and the system it uses to make sure your moves aren't stale. Like it really feels like I'm doing mix ups in my racer that kinda makes me go wild when Im able to pull off the full combo. Add in a level system that eases you into the whole situation, and you be impressed how well you are able to perform compared to how you started.

Riptide GP: Renegade is kinda just the bees knees when it comes to water racers out there, and honestly it's something I would put on par with the likes of Mario Kart and Burnout in terms of the fun and joy it gave me. If you're looking for a good racer, you won't be disappointed with this one, although maybe listen to something else while you play it.

Game 59: Riptide GP 2 Apr2024 Honestly, Riptide GP 2 is a very solid title that ultimately feels rather empty despite having a rather healthy amount of content and things to do. Perhaps it's because I played Renegade first (a sort of reboot/ sequel to this game), but it really feels like they were just testing the waters rather than simply making something a bit more interesting. From it's milder soundtrack to it's non-campaign career mode there just isn't much there to push you forward aside from the races. And in that vain, are the races really good enough to hold this game? Well yes, but having played Renegade, I know these developers can do better.

When I think back to the track design and overall world they create with it, this game really feels like we both just scratched the surface, and have something rather unique here. The game takes place in the future, and the tracks and style certainly reflect that, but there really is no story to go by here. Like I can't quite explain it, but it's more of a matter of if you have no story or characters, it feels harder to associate with wanting to win races and it kinda just makes everything rather hallow in a way that doesn't feel quite right. Maybe that's just a me problem, but there is a reason why racing games with no clear focus on anything tend to focus on having a good soundtrack. It's a little something extra that keeps you in the race or pumps you up in a way that makes you want to push forward. While this game does has a soundtrack, much like it's sequel game, it just kinda blends in with everything else in the game and feels rather forgettable.

I don't think this really takes away from the overall amazing track design or racing mechanics this game sets forth tho as a lot of the games focus is on racing or stunt tricks. The game's track design does feel more formal with it's jumps which for completion purposes makes it easier to complete compared to it's sequel Renegade, but honestly with marathoning those two back to back, it feels kinda nice. That being said, career mode kinda ends up being a joke once you get some of the later vehicles in this game, and it really shows just how limited this game can feel once you kinda exhausted getting all the stars in campaign mode, yet you still won't have enough to buy everything in the game. Having to fully completed this game, by like fully upgrading everything would certainly become far too much of a grind fest, but thankfully if you stick to about 2 to 3 vehicles it shouldn't be too bad to complete it. Still, the games stunt tricks and tracks it has still feel rather unique and fun to do despite it being a more simplified version of Renegade's. All the tracks are thankfully unique from it's sequel game, and they are all built solid in a way that feels fun to play through from the first time to the 100th. Especially with some of the more ice theme tracks that seem to really work well with the future aesthetic this game has going for it.

Overall it's very hard to look at Riptide GP 2 after playing Renegade and seeing just how the series gets better and has more personality. It's not so much I feel this game is bad, or that it's not worth playing, but just that I have seen it done better. Do I still think it's worth playing? Absolutely, everything else in this game is unique and has more tracks to race through in this world that make it really fun to go fast and do stunts, but I wouldn't really put it over Renegade. If you have a phone, this game also uses motion controls for steering, and as far as I know, is free to play. So like I really do think this game is worth playing if your phone could run it or even if on sale as it's an easy 100% for achievement hunters and trophy sluts alike. Either way, I don't think Riptide GP should fade away and even at it's worst it's still better than some other notable racing games out there like Super Mario Kart or Team Sonic Racing. If you can't play Renegade, play this.

Heyo folks, Richard and me are back with another splitscreen video! In this one, we’re playing the PS4 version of Riptide GP: Renegade by Vector Unit.

It’s worth noting that Richard isn’t very good at racing games (As you’ll notice in this video), so it’s a pretty mismatched competition in terms of skill. Still, we had fun recording it and we have more videos planned.

Riptide GP : Renegade - Review

Riptide GP : Renegade – Review

It’s two years since Riptide GP 2 appeared on Xbox One and while it had some amazing highs, it also came with a few disappointing lows centralised around the lack of depth, so how well does Riptide GP : Renegade stand up to all time greats like the mighty WaveRace franchise.

I was personally a big fan of GP2, for £5 it was one of the best value packages available on the Xbox One and I said two…

Hey there everybody, Part 5 in my Best of 2016 series has been uploaded!

In this video I’m featuring Riptide GP: Renegade by Vector Unit!

Even though I didn’t get to play very many racing games in 2016, this game was among the best that I did. It’s a futuristic jet ski style racing game that’s inspired by jet ski racing games of the past like Wave Race.

The game has a ton of courses, character choices and game modes to choose from and the level design is superb.

Thanks a lot for taking the time to watch the video folks and there’s still games to feature in this series.

Happy gaming! - Shaun Meyers (Kyo Akiara) out!
