Giant Machines 2017
Critic Reviews for Giant Machines 2017
Driving huge vehicles can be cool in Giant Machines 2017, but it's a thrill that doesn't last long.
A very competent albeit plain simulator once the novelty of the scale wears off.
Giant Machines 2017 for the PS5 is a unique title. Graphically and technically, the game is clearly outdated, and the transition to the new generation yields few improvements. The concept—piloting immense machines in lumbering, precise missions—has a unique charm for a very specific target audience, but it doesn't quite live up to its promise. If you're looking for a simulation title, there are plenty of other great titles out there that offer more.

It just didn’t entertain me enough, sadly, even with a story-based system to experience all the workings of the machine, as the objectives all just seemed underwhelming.
It’s poop, which is disappointing. And it doesn’t help that you have to switch off one of a whole bunch of hideous German techno/thrash metal music stations every time you start a vehicle. That’s weird. It didn’t entertain me, it didn’t distract my son, and it’s very broken. Maybe it’ll be a cult classic by Giant Machines 2023, but not yet.
