Talk:Road Rash (1991 video game)

Soundtrack variances
Due to the age of the game in comparison with a platform such as Wikipedia and also in-depth online game reviews, the edit that I made in regards to the difference of the sound tracks between ports is difficult to cite. However, it is easy to see within about a minute of watching in-game video.

The use of the artists' soundtrack in-game is a notable difference between the ports. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.76.210.20 (talk) 18:50, 23 January 2017 (UTC)

Separation from 1994 game of the same name
The original Genesis/computer game released in 1991 is a separate game from the 32-bit one released on the 3DO, PlayStation, Saturn and Windows in 1994.

These are separate games, with different tracks, different characters, different art, different bike lists, different developers, different graphics, different music, different logos and branding... literally, not the same game. Further, this article incorrectly lists the 1994 GBC game (Based on the 32-bit game's branding and format) as the Game Boy version (it was a clear cart, not black) and makes absolutely zero mention of the actual 1991 Game Boy game.

Why is it included in this article? It should be separated as it a separate game, no different than how Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 2 (2019 video game) are separated. If the above^ doesn't convince y'all of such... why is the mention of the completely different 32-bit version of the game mixed in with the "reception" paragraph? It's shoved in last second, and does not make it clear that these are different games.

edit for correction: The 1994 Game Boy version is the one based on game 1 (Or maybe just game 1 & 2?) The Game Boy Color one based on the 1994 32-bit version released in.... 2000. God, the Game Boy was weird. Point still stands about the rest of the 32-bit games though.

 * I'm starting to agree to a split myself. Course, I'd like to get some extra opinions on the matter before I try anything. Cat&#39;s Tuxedo (talk) 02:17, 15 October 2020 (UTC)
 * I have no objection, as long as someone’s willing and able to dig up the sources and create the content. There’s plenty of examples of splits like this, from that era where they’d name drastically different games on different platforms with the same name.

 * There's enough sources for the '94 version in the article as is that making a new article definitely shouldn't be a problem. When I find the time, I'll see about getting a draft put together. Cat&#39;s Tuxedo (talk) 03:05, 15 October 2020 (UTC)

 * Road Rash (video game) → Road Rash (1991 video game)
 * Road Rash (CD version) → Road Rash (1994 video game)
 * Support. Clearly a better disambiguation. --Gonnym (talk) 01:07, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Support. Actually wanted the split page to be named that to begin with. Should've really put my foot down there. Cat&#39;s Tuxedo (talk) 02:38, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Support - As the 3DO remake came in 1994, I support this move fully... Roberth Martinez (talk) 02:34, 28 October 2020 (UTC)
