Reviewers Didn't Like

Confusing story
Glitch-filled gameplay
Absurd mechanics
Low-quality graphics
Annoying characters
There’s not a single thing this doesn’t get wrong, from the dire driving and fighting to the sanity-defying awfulness of the storytelling – and especially the sex scenes

Expert reviews and ratings

That people are being asked to spend time and money on this garbage shows a profound lack of respect for consumers. All one can do is marvel at the latest entry to the list of candidates for "Worst Game of All Time."

I am going outside now. I am going outside. Look, it's raining. This game is my Shawshank. I am leaving the house now. I am leaving the house.

Genuinely one of the worst video games ever made, where the dry-humping sex scenes are no less confused and impotent as the rest of the gameplay.

Definitely don’t buy it in its current state, it’s not worth the money. Instead find a Let’s Play or wait until it’s going tenth of the price, take a look and just wonder what the hell the creative team were thinking.

If they try and convince you it’s good, punch them in the face. Well, don’t actually hit them, but you get the idea. The very consideration that Ride to Hell is in any way good is a poison that must be drawn from your mind as soon as possible. I’m glad to be the one to help you out with that. Tips go in the jar by the door.

Muy triste el que la responsabilidad de sacar tan accidentado título haya corrido por parte de unos veteranos como Eutechnyx, aquellos que bajo el nombre de Zeppelin Games sacaban tantas joyitas en aquellos últimos días del Spectrum en los que los usuarios estábamos tan necesitados de software.

Quite frankly, this game should never have been released, it was cancelled once, so I have no idea what made Deep Silver or Eutechnyx decide to revive the game. Oddly enough, there's a "1%" sign on the title poster of the game, that should give you a clue about the quality of this game. Avoid.

Ride to Hell: Retribution es una completísima guía que repasa punto por punto todo lo que no hay que hacer para tener un juego de calidad. Aburrido hasta el tedio, desagradable desde el punto de vista estético y con bochornosos defectos de falta de pulido éste es, literalmente, un videojuego a evitar.

The writing probably could've been seen on the wall from a mile away. Ride To Hell: Retribution was in the works for what seems like ages over at Eutechnyx, then mysteriously got cancelled and taken off the Deep Silver website in 2009. It somehow...

But as a broken, derivative, low budget, and crude PC download at near full-price? There is a biker saying, that life is too short for traffic. Stick with that advice; life is too short to spare any time for this game.
