What the critics said
For example, Shawn Smith wrote in Electronic Gaming Monthly that "There's nothing like sitting down and playing a good old-time game. It's even better to do it when it has been enhanced, but still has the same feel as the original."
— Electronic Gaming Monthly, 1997 (Shawn Smith)
Adam Douglas explained in IGN that the Rampage series "was great for getting your aggressions out and then moving on. Why would you want to play this game for hours at a time?"
— IGN, 1997 (Adam Douglas)
Next Generation reviewed the Nintendo 64 version of the game, and stated that "Despite the three-player mode, no amount of graphic flash or nostalgia can improve a style of gameplay whose day has passed."
— Next Generation, 1998
He added that it is "suffused with all the monster movie fun that was conspicuously lacking in the recent Godzilla film".
— Computer Gaming World, 1998
However, a different GamePro critic reviewed the Saturn version, and opined that the game's "utter failure to take advantage of new technology and add new elements to the original Rampage is inexcusable."
