    Not enough there 0

    This game really had all the ingredients for success. A veteran racing developer, good visuals, good story premise, tight driving controls, a lot of races, and an open world. Good right? Ya well I didnt even really want to finish it, because I have been talking to people and seeing many reviews, and they are all right. There isnt enough to do, and the races arent exciting at all.  The vehicles dont feel any different really from each other, and there are about 6 or so different variants, which i...

    There's nothing terrible about it (I think that's a box quote) 3

    I didn't love this game so I'm just going to hit some things that stuck out to me.Good: The open world driving is cool and the environment is huge.Bad: The world is really too big making the interesting points too spread, taking too long to reach anything. I say this after unlocking only 2 of 19 areas. More density would have been much welcomed.Good: Varied terrain. Desert, sand dunes, grassy areas, hills, wooded areas, beaches, etc.Bad: Everything's pretty much gray/brown, and even though I cou...

    Fuel Or Just Gassy 0

    This is a game that tried to create an open world racing game that would one up a Burn Out Paradise. they forget to create a racing game that is fun. To a point it had to create Scenrey points to give a reason to not hit the fast track button to the next races. And the big let down the racing was not good at all. I feel another case of the designer trying to sell on what is hot right now. this could havce been good if it was an off raod racing game that one from point a to b. Sometime less is be...

    X360 Review: Fuel 0

     Fuel is a very large game...that is a fact that Codemasters loves to tell every one, the problem is that while they do have 5,000 square miles of none of it feels unique.The graphics are bland and lack detail that would set them apart from other racing games. One thing that they could have done that would of helped the game is if they had included motion blur because they don't the game in general has a lack of speed, so when you go 100 MPH it seems like you are going at 30 MPH. It is the simpl...

    Most underrated racing game last gen ? 0

    I mean seriously, huge beutiful world. Plenty of cars and events. Good driving model.What is special about this game is its post apocaliptic feel. just driving around the endless map is so addicting to me. I still fire it up from time to time, just to drive around in the sunset, snap some screenshots and relax while listening to bombcast.Highly recommend as atmospheric piece. The game still holds up graphically today.The act of racing itself is not the best thing in this game but I think review...

    Why did I think it would be better the second time? 0

    After playing some other vaguely similar games, I felt compelled to try FUEL again. I'd forgotten why I abandoned it the first time, but it didn't take long to remember. Here is a short list of pros and cons to remind me if this situation ever happens again. Lists make for very lazy reviews, I know, but this game doesn't deserve more effort.ProsTrainer saved in patch folder. But why are you installing FUEL again anyway?A note I left myself about the game after the last play attemptThe map is ver...
