Rage was pretty, but.. bland. And boring. It builds on promise, and then lets you down. All those interesting characters you meet? They just disappear. The corridor shooting is dull, and the stages are short and barren of enemies. The enemy variety is nil, and none are of any interest. The car combat is pointless and boring.

The only thing I'll respect Rage for (and ID), is to have the guts to try to write revolutionary new engine. The results were mixed, but they brought something to the table.
