    Not enough there

    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 is really saying something. There was something in the pre hype that stated the weather would alter your driving, but thats a lie while the truth is that there will be some lightning in the backround and the occasional tree that gets burnt and falls, but its really lame and not even a feature. The story is nonexistent, and the events suck. Worst of all is the audio quality. The music is generic and boring, and the cars revving of the engines is groaning and not fun to listen to at all. There were times when I was blasting some tunes listening to this that provided a decent thrill, but besides that, Fuel proved to be a largely boring game that didnt live up to any sort of hype it created for itself or standing out As a game at all. Dont waste your time with this game. Im glad it didnt take me too long to come to my senses

      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...
