7/10 - Where to begin.. Mad Max is an enjoyable game to play without thinking. Turn off your brain and shoot things, punch people, blow things up. Travel from one objective to another. I'll destroy this convoy, I'll blow up this scarecrow, I'll go to this location and pickup the collectibles. Do this repeatedly, this is Mad Max.

The story is decent, but short and few inbetween it's roughly 30 hours of playtime (50 for avid completionists).

The combat is similar to the Batman Arkham series so it's enjoyable enough.

Driving: The car mechanics are poor and clunky; it's overall quite bad. The main enjoyment comes from upgrading both the car and Max, adding stronger attack/defence, weapon capabilities etc.

The environments are bland and filled with nothing most of the time. Sometimes it's pretty to stop at certain locations and admire the sun setting or some mountains in the distance, but the majority of the time there's nothing, just sand and more sand.

Overall the game is fun, yet contains heaps of tedious collectibles and does nothing new to push the open world genre forward. I'd say look into it, if you've exhausted better open world games before it.
