Concept destruction review full#
I get that the game is a PS Plus freebie, so that might not seem so bad, but if I’d have paid full price (and some people will), I’d be very, very annoyed at such basic content being locked behind a paywall. However, if you want the character-specific story and challenges, you’ll have to pay money. The game is focused on the online multiplayer grid, but there is a single-player Arcade mode where you can play against A.I controlled enemies. There’s not much to it and if you’re hoping for single-player content, you best be ready to open your wallet. If it sounds shallow, that’s because it is. Just what we need…Īnd that is Destruction AllStars in a nutshell. Quick-time events in online multiplayer games. You simply go near an opposing vehicle, press triangle to jump on, and then mash the on-screen buttons. Or, you can be a total dick and steal somebody else’s car. You can eject, run around, find a new car waiting nearby, and then carry on with some fresh wheels. The twist here is that you can avoid total devastation by bailing out of your car at any time.
Once you’ve got a car you drive around in the hope of smashing into other players, destroying their vehicles, and scoring yourself some points across the four game modes, though honestly, there may as well have been just one. If you’re not, you’re gonna get slammed early, or maybe even kicked by another player, unless you can get up to a platform and nab another vehicle. You drop into an arena on foot and you have to hope that you’re fast enough to grab one of the cars waiting nearby. You have a roster of ridiculous characters, each with their own special vehicle that can be unlocked during the course of a match. You’ve probably got a fair idea of what the game is about, but let me break down the general gist. It’s another grinder to throw on the pile. That’s what Destruction AllStars is missing. What caused us to give our mates a dead-arm for daring to beat us in our own homes. What kept us playing in the dark until the wee hours of the morning. Vehicular combat has always been a winning formula, going back to the days of Twisted Metal, Destruction Derby, and my personal childhood favourite, Vigilante 8.īut, Destruction AllStars seems to have forgotten what made these games so good in the first place. The concept on which Destruction AllStars builds its game is sound smash cars into each other.
