Publisher: Sony Interactive Entertainment However, there's a lot of fun to be had here, so let's just hope SIE Bend Studio gives us another pop at finally taking down the Freaker horde one day. Days Gone is a solid, fun game and feels like a more developed version of Avalanche Studios' Mad Max – but with an erratic and often dull story.ĭays Gone is definitely worth playing at some stage, but it's certainly not a must-own game. This level of background and story can be incredible and we can see why they did it, but it clashes massively with the rest of the game and most importantly, a dickweed of a main character. Thrilling chance battles with Freakers are punctuated with meandering and dull flashback chats with your wife, bookended with abrupt loading screens, with one mission even forcing us to pick flowers. While you’ll endeavour to get a nice V-Twin for Deacon, most of the game you’ll be stuck with a single cylinder engine and in real life those things are incredibly common and built for the third-world.Days Gone seems to have taken many cues from The Last of Us and Uncharted, but fails to match their standards. The tank, for example is clearly a BMW tank with a strap, the frame could be from a cruiser while the handlebars are clearly from a motocross bike. In truth, looking through motorcycle forums, visiting trade shows and my local bike “jumble” you can see the inspiration for Deacon’s drifter bike across huge myriad of bike manufacturers. Besides, if you squint it almost looks like Deacon’s bike, right? In the world of Days Gone, a motorcycle with this versatility would be exceptionally handy. Military even modified these and created the HDT M1030M1. Intended for both on and off-road riding and built with a 650cc four-stroke engine, the U.S. It was the promotional footage that inspired PlayStation Nordic to enlist help of four hugely talented Danes, their mission was recreate the Drifter bike within a 48 hour window and while the look is a bit off-brand, you can’t fault them since this is one cool looking motorcycle.Īfter being shown the Kawasaki KLR650, I can’t help but feel that this might’ve partially inspired the Bend Studio’s design of the Drifter Bike.
