The 32-bit version of '''''Road Rash''''' (ロードラッシュ) is the first 3D entry in the ''[[:Category:Road Rash (franchise)|Road Rash]]'' series of games, released for the [[Sega Saturn]] in 1996 (alongside versions for the [[PlayStation]] and [[Windows PC]]s). This version of ''Road Rash'' was originally released for the [[3DO]] console in 1994.
 +
 +
The game mixes 3D rendered courses with digitized sprites and features a grunge music soundtrack.
 +
 +
==Gameplay==
 +
The game is centered around a series of motorcycle races throughout California that the player must win to advance to higher-difficulty races, while engaging in unarmed and armed combat to hinder the other racers. The bike steers with {{left}} and {{right}} and leans with {{L}} and {{R}}. It accelerates with {{B}} and brakes with {{A}}. Higher-tier bikes are equipped with nitro and can launch a Nitrous Burst by pressing {{B}} twice quickly. These bikes start each race with a limited number of nitro charges.
 +
 +
The racer can attack neighboring opponents with {{C}}. Some opponents wield weapons such as clubs and chains, which can be taken and used by the racer if the opponent is attacked as they are holding the weapon out to strike. The racer can backhand opponents with {{up}}+{{C}} or kick them with {{down}}+{{C}}.
 +
 +
Racers are ejected from their bikes if they crash into obstacles (such as cars, trees, and wildlife) or if they run out of stamina (shown in the bottom-left corner of the screen) from fights with opponents. In this event, the racer automatically runs back toward his or her bike; the player can move the racer with {{left}} and {{right}} or stand still with {{A}} to avoid oncoming traffic. Stamina recovers over time. Opponents are likewise ejected from their bikes if their own stamina is depleted (shown in the bottom-right corner of the screen). The bike has its own damage meter (shown between the racer's and opponents' stamina meters), which decreases every time the racer suffers a crash.
 +
 +
The bike is wrecked if the meter fully depletes, which ends the player's participation in the current race. In Big Game Mode, this also deducts the cost of a repair bill from the racer's balance. Police officers (on motorcycles) make sporadic appearances throughout the game's courses and can likewise end the player's participation if they apprehend the racer following a crash. In Big Game Mode, this also deducts the cost of a fine from the racer's balance. Repair bills and fines become more expensive with each subsequent level. If the racer lacks the funds to cover either a repair bill or a fine, the game ends.
 +
 +
===Modes===
 +
There are two gameplay modes. Thrash Mode is a basic mode that allows the player to pick a course and race on it. There are fifteen racers (including the player), and the player starts each race in last position. Qualifying on all five courses (by finishing the race at third position or better) unlocks the next level, which features faster bikes, more aggressive opponents, and longer versions of the same five courses. There are five levels total. This mode also has a two-player mode where players take turns trying to beat each other's times (but there is no simultaneous two-player mode).
 +
 +
Big Game Mode is a more expansive mode where the player chooses a racer, each with different advantages and disadvantages. Similar to Thrash Mode, the player chooses from five courses and unlocks another level of courses by finishing each race in a qualifying position. The player earns cash prizes from each successful race (depending on finishing position). The player has access to a shop and can use prize winnings to purchase several bikes of differing weights, speeds and steering capabilities. As the bikes become faster as each level progresses, purchasing a faster bike eventually becomes essential for keeping up with the other racers. The player wins the Road Rash Cup (and the game) by winning a race on every course on all five levels.
 +
 +
===Racers===
 +
Each racer starts with a different bike, a different weapon, and a different amount of money.

The [[Sega Saturn]] version of '''''Road Rash''''' (ロードラッシュ) is an entry in the series with the same name, and the first 3D ''Road Rash'' game. Despite sharing the same name, it is a different game from the original ''[[Road Rash]]'' released for the [[Sega Mega Drive]], [[Sega Mega-CD]], [[Sega Game Gear]] and [[Sega Master System]] - though the basic gameplay is similar, the world is presented in 3D and the game enjoys CD-quality audio and full motion video.

 +
==Music and sound==
 +
While developing the original [[3DO]] version of the game, ''Road Rash'' co-creator Randy Breen sought to make full use of the CD format with [[full-motion video]] segments and a licensed soundtrack. Breen was particularly interested in incorporating the music of Soundgarden, as he was a fan of the band. The band's record label, A&M Records, initially declined the offer due to a lack of familiarity with the 3DO platform and unwillingness to formulate a new deal structure for licensed music in video games, but the band was interested since they were reportedly fans of the series. A&M Records agreed as long as Electronic Arts also include tracks by five other artists that they wanted to promote: Monster Magnet, Paw, Swervedriver, Therapy?, and Hammerbox.{{ref|https://www.hypebot.com/hypebot/2017/05/chris-cornell-soundgarden-and-road-rash.html}}

Despite sharing the same name, it is a different game from the original ''[[Road Rash]]'' released for the [[Sega Mega Drive]], [[Sega Game Gear]], and [[Sega Master System]]. Though the basic gameplay is similar, the world is presented in 3D, and the game enjoys CD-quality audio and full-motion video. It is also different to the [[Road Rash (Mega-CD)|Mega-CD version]], though some assets, such as the soundtrack and the full-motion video sequences are shared between the two.

The 32-bit version of Road Rash (ロードラッシュ) is the first 3D entry in the Road Rash series of games, released for the Sega Saturn in 1996 (alongside versions for the PlayStation and Windows PCs). This version of Road Rash was originally released for the 3DO console in 1994.

The game mixes 3D rendered courses with digitized sprites and features a grunge music soundtrack.

Gameplay

The game is centered around a series of motorcycle races throughout California that the player must win to advance to higher-difficulty races, while engaging in unarmed and armed combat to hinder the other racers. The bike steers with Left and Right and leans with L and R. It accelerates with B and brakes with A. Higher-tier bikes are equipped with nitro and can launch a Nitrous Burst by pressing B twice quickly. These bikes start each race with a limited number of nitro charges.

The racer can attack neighboring opponents with C. Some opponents wield weapons such as clubs and chains, which can be taken and used by the racer if the opponent is attacked as they are holding the weapon out to strike. The racer can backhand opponents with Up+C or kick them with Down+C.

Racers are ejected from their bikes if they crash into obstacles (such as cars, trees, and wildlife) or if they run out of stamina (shown in the bottom-left corner of the screen) from fights with opponents. In this event, the racer automatically runs back toward his or her bike; the player can move the racer with Left and Right or stand still with A to avoid oncoming traffic. Stamina recovers over time. Opponents are likewise ejected from their bikes if their own stamina is depleted (shown in the bottom-right corner of the screen). The bike has its own damage meter (shown between the racer's and opponents' stamina meters), which decreases every time the racer suffers a crash.

The bike is wrecked if the meter fully depletes, which ends the player's participation in the current race. In Big Game Mode, this also deducts the cost of a repair bill from the racer's balance. Police officers (on motorcycles) make sporadic appearances throughout the game's courses and can likewise end the player's participation if they apprehend the racer following a crash. In Big Game Mode, this also deducts the cost of a fine from the racer's balance. Repair bills and fines become more expensive with each subsequent level. If the racer lacks the funds to cover either a repair bill or a fine, the game ends.

Modes

There are two gameplay modes. Thrash Mode is a basic mode that allows the player to pick a course and race on it. There are fifteen racers (including the player), and the player starts each race in last position. Qualifying on all five courses (by finishing the race at third position or better) unlocks the next level, which features faster bikes, more aggressive opponents, and longer versions of the same five courses. There are five levels total. This mode also has a two-player mode where players take turns trying to beat each other's times (but there is no simultaneous two-player mode).

Big Game Mode is a more expansive mode where the player chooses a racer, each with different advantages and disadvantages. Similar to Thrash Mode, the player chooses from five courses and unlocks another level of courses by finishing each race in a qualifying position. The player earns cash prizes from each successful race (depending on finishing position). The player has access to a shop and can use prize winnings to purchase several bikes of differing weights, speeds and steering capabilities. As the bikes become faster as each level progresses, purchasing a faster bike eventually becomes essential for keeping up with the other racers. The player wins the Road Rash Cup (and the game) by winning a race on every course on all five levels.

Racers

Each racer starts with a different bike, a different weapon, and a different amount of money.

Music and sound

While developing the original 3DO version of the game, Road Rash co-creator Randy Breen sought to make full use of the CD format with full-motion video segments and a licensed soundtrack. Breen was particularly interested in incorporating the music of Soundgarden, as he was a fan of the band. The band's record label, A&M Records, initially declined the offer due to a lack of familiarity with the 3DO platform and unwillingness to formulate a new deal structure for licensed music in video games, but the band was interested since they were reportedly fans of the series. A&M Records agreed as long as Electronic Arts also include tracks by five other artists that they wanted to promote: Monster Magnet, Paw, Swervedriver, Therapy?, and Hammerbox.[10]

Versions

Despite sharing the same name, it is a different game from the original Road Rash released for the Sega Mega Drive, Sega Game Gear, and Sega Master System. Though the basic gameplay is similar, the world is presented in 3D, and the game enjoys CD-quality audio and full-motion video. It is also different to the Mega-CD version, though some assets, such as the soundtrack and the full-motion video sequences are shared between the two.
