Road Rash

Ah, the good ol' days. The days of pixelated action combined with straightforward, simplistic, yet still addictive gameplay. You gaming vets will probably recognize the name Road Rash, a game series that started all the way back on the 16-bit Sega Genesis. Basically, you ride around on motorcycles and beat the snot out of your opponents...literally.

These early games were always a lot of fun, so we're excited to hear that EA may be considering a triumphant return for the high-octane franchise. According to GameDaily, EA CEO John Riccitiello has revealed that Road Rash "remains very much on the company's collective mind." Obviously, we're not talking about a confirmation, but evidently, the project is a real possibility for the future.

"We think about [our old] franchises a lot. Road Rash is one that keeps coming up in brainstorming sessions," he said.

Yeah, we'd bring it up if we were in those meetings, too. We definitely want a next-gen Road Rash, because while we do have plenty of racers, and even a few that let you do battle with other cars, we don't have a one that boasts motorcycle riders with baseball bats. And that's exactly what we're hoping for. Bring it back, EA!
