60 of 79 · most liked firstPLEASE READ: The store claims this game has split screen, but it doesn't, meaning it also doesn't support remote play together. However, the devs haven't fixed the issue yet. This is a warning to not buy this game if you just want it for split screen! Secondly, the ram requirements are wrong. They should be in GB rather than MB. Keep that in mind! My review down below: Gas Guzzlers: Combat Carnage is in a weird place with the release of…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Unlike what is advertised on this store page, this game doesn't support Shared/Split Screen PvP. Get Gas Guzzlers Extreme instead since that is the updated version of this game with changes, more content and bug fixes. If you have Gas Guzzlers Extreme then there is no point in buying this game. Watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=scl67kcdLDQ for comparison.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This Game is NOT split screen. It claimed it was and that was the main reason I bought it.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →GTX 1060 gameplay footage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dCbwMm_UKlc My Thoughts: This is the original Gas Guzzler game prior to the 'Extreme' version. It's been brought to Steam as you cannot get it anywhere else anymore. I have to say for an older title it handles brilliantly and runs super smooth. Also as a credit to the developers it doesn't look out of place in todays 2017 gaming market. I also remember the game struggling on my OLd PC at the time of its initial release... but no…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →No need for this one. Grab Gas Guzzlers Extreme Carnage instead. Same game - more stuff.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I did get some very odd effects "prism" on the screen in the first race and even the garage "pause" screen, I changed some settings and looking at the recording they went away for the second race. (not sure what did the trick though) Looking at the game (as in just reading what it is; car combat) I did think it'd be a whole lot more "arcady" in its handling but I was pleasently surprisded with that, the handling in the game's quite good, easily on par with something like NFS Underground and…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I picked this up for 5 bucks and have been playing for a while now. It could be so much better than it is. The "challenge" seems to come from worse and worse car control as the game progresses. Seriously, it's less about your opponents than it is just trying to keep your car from bouncing all over like a pinball. It totally detracts from the game and makes progress a real chore. The upgrades to your car are pretty much pointless because you'll spend your time wondering why you keep…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If you are a fan of games like Jak X: Combat Racing and Flatout, this game will be for you.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If you're wondering what the difference is between this and Gas Guzzlers Extreme, not too much compared to the base GG Extreme game and it's not worth purchasing if you already own GG Extreme. I purchased this on sale for a paltry $ .74 USD so if you can get it for really cheap you might want to pick it up for fun. The big differences are that there isn't the Stallion car; there isn't a voice counting down to start a race or to let you know that you are "lock and loaded" when playing a combat…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Arcade fun looks good plays well..= fun :)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is stupid fun. Doing a race and blasting out your competition with rockets is incredibly satisfying. The only problem with this game is that the career is too short. I recommend this game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Impossible difficulty: First race was easy, overtook everyone in the second lap. Second race I doubt was possible< couldn't get past the first corner without everyone ganging up on me. Survival lead to everyone getting 5 million miles ahead of me. In-Game has a glitchy screen effect like it's trying to be a part of the Degeneration X titantron. Hard to tell what each pick-up does. Mines are impossible to see and take you ouut when you have more then half of your health.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is kind of a 3D Death Rally (the original one, not the remake). You start with a crappy car and climb your way up the ladder, upgrading your ride as you get cash from races. You have cars mounted with weapons, and mario-kart style powerups (with a serious tone, no throwing turtle shells here) that litter the road... along with a lot of destructible obstacles. You can either outrace your opponents or destroy them. The racing and the shooting feels rather good, but I would've…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's awesome, go check it out! (This game has it's own Steam Trading cards. Gas Guzzlers Extreme is the newer version of this game which also has it's own cards)

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →some nice car combat can be had here. the cars handle well and the weapons are nice but some take more aiming than others. they also have 3 race modes: race with weapons, race without weapons but you still have all the sub items (mines, oil, smoke), and last man out where each lap the last place driver blows up until there's 1 car left.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →no controller support.

SO OVERALL ID SAY YES…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a very enjoyable little combat racer that runs very smooth and it is extremely enjoyable to play. Although it is an old title, visually it stands very well. But above all it is the simple gameplay that works very well and the cars that handle awesome for this kind of game that will satisfy the player. The difficulty can be set to your liking so you can go at your pace. The level design is adequate, not too complex not too bland, the tracks are easy to remember yet they don't become…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →as of writing this review i will say up front initially i just bought this game too further support the developers of this game, and the game that followed this http://store.steampowered.com/app/243800/Gas_Guzzlers_Extreme/ but getting into the game it is great , has the same sort of look and same tracks and things but the cars feel different and there is another view from above that changes the game quite alot ..and this game runs better on older hardware as i found out in my spare room…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Awesome game! Mechanics works fine and graphics are great!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun game but play it on medium difficulty. Hard is challenging and higher ones are impossible at start of game. Might be biased because of Fićo (Zastava 750), Reliant Regal with famous dolls and Zastava 101 imitations in game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Game looks cool doesn’t play on steam deck without really going to town changing controls refunded it

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Gas Guzzlers Extreme is such an amazingly chaotic game.
unlabelledView post →Surprisingly good combat racing game from an unknown Croatian studio. To be honest I don't have a lot to say about the game, it's a pretty standard "kill'em'all" racing with a good atmosphere, interesting art direction and surprisingly excellent gunplay. Also I have to add, that the OST(is it original?) is just amazing. My only complaint is that the game doesn't feature any story and so runs out of steam near the end. Still, I enjoyed it, so I can deal with it. It's dirty cheap, so buy for…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Gas Guzzlers is one of the most chaotic and fun combat racing games I have played. Despite it being an indie game the graphics and handling are great. The driver will say funny things depending on the events that happen and the cars are basically copies of real cars but with funny names which adds a bit humour to the game. There is also a bit of customization to add some style to your ride and many upgrades. I like the variety of guns you can mount to your vehicle too. I'd say this is easily…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Absolute lovely casual game with gaming experience in focus - old school, but good school. (had some technical issues: flickering color, please: turn off bloom, and maybe you have to play in in window instead of full screen)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Xbox Controller does not work at all.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is CRAZY: crazy violent, crazy hilarious, crazy fun. Two chunky mangled thumbs up! ADDENDUM: The garage radio is fantastic! CARL PERKINS!!!!!!!!!! JIMMIE RODGERS!!!!!!!! ADDENDUM: Somebody put an inflatable sex doll in my car. She was already inflated, so 10/10.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →the game is a lot of fun! i haven't lost a race yet, so maybe I should up the difficulty. i enjoyed flatout 2, so this game is similar, but with weapons. there are 3 modes: normal race - no forward attacking weapons, but can still collect items to drop behind you combat race - same as normal race, but not you can use forward attacking weapons knock out - sorta like combat race, but each lap the last car explodes
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I was expecting generic cheapness. I got a good heaping of quality. I cant begin to tell you how good this looks on the Deck w settings maxed out. I need variety in my racing and this gets me full.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →LGR's Duke Nukem voice ftw
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →kinda lame, speed feels slow, crashing feels unsatisfying as *, racetracks feel uninspiring, wrecks only feel good when you nitro-crash them
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A decent combat racing game.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It is extremely satisfying blowing ♥♥♥♥ up! Also, a big thanks to LGR for the Duke Nukem voice.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →controller support does not work properly. I had to remap EVERYTHING to get it to work, and even then throttle didn't work at all. I refuse to play a racing game with kbm.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →great game/playing on steam deck ,no issues,5 out of 5 stars
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Good but... the sequel Gas Guzzlers Extreme is slightly better so... don't bother.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Based, fun carnage. Good stuff
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →You know, just thinking about it...WWE had Fastlane, as a PLE. I can't help but think that it would have been perfect as a WWE-themed racing game. Perhaps like Gas Guzzlers Extreme but reffined. (Speaking of which, played WWE Crush Hour for the first time)
unlabelledView post →Gas Guzzlers: Combat Carnage is an arcade-style vehicular combat racer developed and published by Gamepires that blends high-speed circuit racing with explosive weapon-based mayhem. Rather than focusing purely on precision driving or simulation realism, the game leans into chaos, aggression, and progression-driven competition. Players begin with a modest car and limited firepower, entering a tournament structure where both racing skill and combat effectiveness determine advancement. The premise…
