You know a game is good when it's the last thing you think about at night and the first thing you want to do in the morning. Rocket League made me forget to masturbate. 10/10

Exactly like school P.E. Nobody ever passes to me I get yelled at Everyone pushes me around

Its like FIFA but instead of scandals it has fun

Cross platform means we can beat those console peasants, amirite?

Just like normal soccer but now you can't pretend you've hurt your leg

-Buddy and I decide to buy Rocket League at 3am -I need Steam card so I go to the 7-11 -The only close 7-11 is in the ghetto -Go to said ghetto and witness many ghetto things -Buy steam card and a peach Snapple iced tea -Get home and start playing said game -Realize this game has kept me up till 6am -Realize I love this game -Realize some good things do come from the ghetto 11/10- Would go back to the hood again

Got family? Got friends? Not anymore you don’t.

If this game was a fork it would be a great fork

I hate sports games. I hate cars. I hate football/soccer. I'm in love with Rocket League. 10/10

4 player split screen? cross platform connectivity? rocket cars? These devs don't fuck around.

More realistic than fifa

Rocket League has one of the best progression systems I've ever seen in a video game before... Rookie - You can't hit shit. You are a disgrace to your team and the game. Semi Pro - You can now sometimes hit the ball. Don't even try to hit it in the right direction or think about your positioning. You're only Semi Pro so you can just go ahead and hit that ball! You also made a bicycle hit that one time but yeah nah you're still shit. Pro - You have learnt how to shoot the ball accurately from the ground. You're the best! Late into Pro level, you would have likely looked up advanced tips for Rocket League. Worst mistake of your life. You now know what aerials are. You think you can fly. The ball comes up high and you go for an aerial. Once you jump, you fly straight into the ground and continue to do frontflips until you land on your back... What the fuck happened there? Oh. You're using keyboard. Yeah nah, time to get a controller, dick-head. Veteran - You now have a controller and go for terribly unlikely aerials. You think you're good. You can hit the lower aerials consistently and you can now be considered an addition to your team. Congratulations! Expert - You can now consistently hit aerials accurately at any height. This game is now your life. You can also score off a wall every now and then. Good times. Master - You are now a god to every level lower than you. You have perfected the art of wall shots. You are an extremely cool person. A nice little bonus is that everyone under the level of Pro will now spam "Sorry!" every time they do something wrong to you. Legend - The most badass-looking title you can have. Fuck Rocketeer. You probably now have an extreme case of false confidence. Once you get used to the badass title, you'll wreck anything and anyone with ease. You can also pull off freestyles consistently. Nice job! Also be sure to prepare for an endless stream of "You're not good enough for Legend!" Rocketeer - You can now 720-freestyle-backflip-reverse-backwards-aerial-air dribble off a wall with ease. You probably boosted for that Rocketeer tag. But if you didn't, still prepare for another endless stream of "You're not good enough for Rocketeer!" But in all seriousness, I absolutely love this game and I'm sure anyone will. I've literally never seen someone dislike this game after they've played 10 hours. (Rocket League moves onto a whole-nother level of fun and addiction once you learn how to fly.) If you're still contemplating buying this game after reading this review, just trust me when I say it is one of the most fun and addictive games I've ever played (more gripping than Skyrim and GTA). Think about it this way: You wouldn't have made it this far through the review if you didn't secretly want this game. Ignore the childish-looking pictures on the store page. Just get this game. This is the one.

EDIT - 2/13/2016:

You know a game is amazing when the servers go down and you'd rather train offline than play any of your other 100 games... ty for the read

Hate football games. Hate car games. Love car football game. I don't get it either.

Such a fun and addictive game I forgot to masturbate.

If you don't buy this game... I will find you... and I will score on you.

This is what you get when EA isn't involved in game developing

After almost 500 hours of Dota, I know that I suck at Dota. After 2 hours of Rocket League, I begin to seriously entertain the idea that I might be Christ Jesus, re-incarnated into this mortal plane for the sole purpose of doing awesome shit in rocket car soccer. 10/10 Would score for your sins again.

Soccer? more like Soccar amirite?

Mildly entertaining for couple of hours.

PSA 21.07.2020

Rocket League is going to go free to play. However, it will move to the Epic Games Store and won't be available to get on Steam anymore, if you own it you will still be able to play, though.

PSA 01.05.2019

I do not in any way support Psyonix' decision to sell to Epic Games. The review will remain as-is, but be aware that this decision has been made.

My Impression

Everybody probably knows this game by now. But there is way more to it, than big balls and little cars - and that's what makes it so interesting and worth playing for a long, long time.

TL;DR

Being quick is an essential part of the game, so let me give you a fast overview:

Positive	Mediocre	Negative
+ Fun for beginner, intermediate and pro	~ but sometimes very frustrating
+ Loads of cool mechanics	~ take a lot of time to learn
+ great car and item variety	~ a lot has to be unboxed, traded or bought
+ Great arena designs	~ some may lag on older systems
+ Cool and fresh soundtracks	~ some might not like environmental sounds
	~ Manual and Automatic Report/Ban features	- toxic community
+ regular huge, awesome and free updates

The Guide

I will put the main part of this review into a steam guide, the foremost reason is, that there is far too much I want to talk about. To justify making it a guide-review, I will put a lot of reference to it and go into more detail, so I hope you can accept my decision and enjoy it regardless. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=947564753

The Verdict

The game is designed to be pure fun for everybody and it achieves this goal with flying marks. A definite recommendation for just about anyone coming by, trust me that you can have fun without investing a ton of time. Just mind that it's a big online game and like any other of the size, it attracts trolls, plain idiots and other sorts of human scum, so do yourself a favor and disable voice and maybe text chat in the options and you are good to go.

Note

If you have read this far - thank you. I hope this review helped you in deciding to buy this game and if it did, I would be grateful for a 'thumbs up', if you didn't like it, you can give me a 'thumbs down' but I would be glad to hear your opinion on what you didn't like.

The game is incredible in every aspect! Wow! Wow! Wow! Chat has been disabled for 3 seconds.

I live my life five minutes at a time now.

Got family? Got friends? Not anymore you don't.
