Here's April's PlayStation Plus games line-up
Sony has announced its PlayStation Plus games selection for the month of April, and it's another good 'un, dropping Mad Max and Trackmania Turbo into the laps of subscribers.
Mad Max released on PS4 back in 2015, not long after George Miller's Fury Road movie, and saw Just Cause developer Avalanche Studios turn its open-world expertise from tropical stunt action to dusty desert bowl driving. The result, said Martin Robinson in his Eurogamer review, is the "curious, enjoyable wreckage that comes after a head-on collision between My Summer Car and a post-apocalyptic Assassin's Creed".
On the surface, it's a fairly typical open-world adventure, set across a sprawling map that's positively rammed with icons, objectives, and points of interest, but Mad Max's strength is in the way it adapts that familiar template to fit with its iconic cinematic universe. The real star, said Martin, is the open road, where "dust devils whirl across dunes and sand sweeps across tired asphalt, while the skyboxes sell the post-apocalyptic drama better than any other element".
