Huge quality of life improvementPaintbox2022-11-20Version 1.0

Fantastic addition, I always found the password system in this series clunky so this is a huge improvement and added in a seamless manner. Great work, I hope in future if possible that the same can be done for the original game and a big thanks either way to the authors of the hack.

The best of both worlds!Algunar2022-11-10Version 1.0

I could not say much more nor much better than Red Soul review here.

Great game? Checked!

Improvments? Checked!

SRAM save for improved version? Now checked too!

So many thanks to both Ti and to BillyTimeGames for the extraordinary delivered amount of work here!

Time to play to Road Rash II over and over again!

Last but not least : I expect it is only a matter of time before we can save Road Rash and Road Rash 3 improved versions as well...fingers crossed for this to occur pretty soon!

And just as Red Soul stated : aaah, the Road Rash series...these were the good old days...when EA was quite a completely different, much smaller company, focused on players interests only...

Step aside, passwords!Red Soul2022-11-08Version 1.0

Once again, BillyTimeGames provides us with the wonderful convenience of SRAM mechanisms for games that otherwise are a real pain to keep track of progress, thanks to a (rather prevalent combination) of long passwords and plodding input methods.

This allows for much more ease of use, and the fact it is compatible with Ti's wonderful improvement (that honestly provides enough QoL to displace the original game) is the icing of the cake.

Road Rash 2 is legendary, a relic of the heydays when EA made us happy instead of causing us ire. This relic has never been as polished or as enjoyable as this patch and Ti's made it, so go play right now!
