Fuel (Xbox 360, 2009)

This game is incredible fun. I have spent 10 hours total playing it in the last week and from what I've seen---

First and foremost, since it's the most important..(In my opinion)..the land.

Pros: It's vast, and as the loading screen says - You get what you see. Normally, that would be overwhelming, however your surrounded by water being that your on a large island. So, eventually you get cut off...Sadly. At this point, the Cons will better detail the overall game.

Cons: Water, can be a tough obstacle if your in the middle of free riding. I found it to be very irritating whilst trying to follow the In-game GPS. (Which on a side note, the GPS in the game is alright, but not very good off-road. The GPS will usually try to force you back onto asphalt.) Another thing is the variety of the land. Altogether, their are about 20 zones that are huge in the game. Each Zone usually holds it's own theme. If Jungle be it, then you'll face Jungle for several miles until you reach Desert..or Farms..However, I like it this way - many complain though.

Aside from that, random Pros and Cons.

Pro: 70+ Vehicles that are within a few set categories(SUV, Truck, Monster Truck, Bike, Etc)

(Con): Quite a few vehicles lack control and speed, which often they make up for in an odd appearance. I personally like the variety of appearance and statistics, many think it's stupid.

(Pro): Their's a wide variety to do. It's not just race, race, race. You can do several activities, or challenges.

(Con): I found Online free-ride silly, because it doesn't display any means of radar, or map for other players. Unless they are within your sight, they are not on your map. Which, considering how many people play online...shouldn't be hard to accomodate.

(Pro): I believe(not sure at all, but several times have proven in favor) that their is only one server online. One huge server, meaning that instead of inviting friends - All you need to do is tell your friend to get onto online freeride, and meet up at a certain camp to find each other.

(Con): Often, when you are in online free-ride, players that spot you will follow you EVERYWHERE. Usually mic-less, these people follow you and while their are ways to leave them, it's still creepy.

(Pro): One of my favorite bits of the game, customization. It's not unlimited, nor is it very vivid. But it's there, and it's good. I've unlocked mostly helmets, but their are shirts and pants to switch up. All three articles of clothing that you can alter have their own set of designs to choose from. Which can be collected from winning races.

Well, that's it. It's a good game. Considering it came out at Half price, it's a good buy. (Final note: Anyone looking to get easy achievements from this game won't have very much luck. You get about maybe 150-250G easily and then the rest comes with time well spent racing and roaming the land.)

I am very confused with this seller because I won the Fuel game by biding and then I payd it but I dont know why I never received the game. I was supposed to received the game on January 19 2010 but never got it

This game is amazing. It is definitely one of my favorite racing games if not my most favorite. The graphics are of quality, the vehicles are creative and vary, the weather is very realistic. The free ride feature is good too, the ability to just drive around anywhere you want with any vehicle you want. As you drive the night falls, sun rises, rain falls, lightning strikes across the sky, tornadoes suck your vehicle off the road. This game definitely is a game worth buying.

This is one of the first racing games (that I have been introduced to and/or know about) that you can make your own path while racing. Unlike most racing games where it puts up some kind of barrier around the track so you can only go one direction. This game you can take any path you wish, though the game does give a preset or suggested (whichever you prefer to call it) path for you to take. Fun part is is you do decide to make your own path, you need to either know the area well or watch with sharp eyes because you might end up driving off a cliff or in a river.

Each vehicle drives differently, even if two vehicles have the same "stats" you can and will notice a difference in the way the vehicle drives (this ranges with all categories: quad, bike, buggy, muscle car, truck, etc.)

There are only a few downfalls.
1. The load times do take some time, when loading free ride though you never have to wait for a load whenever driving into a new area. (It loads the entire map and you can drive it all without any waiting besides the initial load.)

2.Like most games it has a few glitches here and there. The main two I have experienced are: (1) when the road cuts through a waterway and the road is on a downhill grade, the water stays and you can drive into a wall of water. Its like opening a door and water fills the room but doesn't pour out, you can "walk into underwater" and (2) on occasion while driving you can hit something (tree, wreckage, etc) and your car will catch and you cannot get off it.

But there is this convenient little feature that when you press Y it will respawn you. I will admit at times this respawn feature doesn't always respawn you in a friendly location.

STORYTIME: While I was doing a race that involved multiple tornadoes, I was knocked off-course when a tornado threw a mini-camper at me. When I respawned it spawned me inside the tornado and I got sucked up which counts as a "wreck" so it spawns me automatically BUT it continually spawned me inside the tornado. It was actually quite amusing. But whenever it spawned me I just pressed Y right as it dropped my car on the map and fixed the problem. And yes, for those wandering, I did lose that race. =P

It was a week shipping and handling; really fast. Perfect transition. Game was new, and owner is happy. Will be buying from again.

Superb, jumps and insane speed and a massive open world where you play the races.
All very nice to see. The campus is really huge.

Fun game, good graphics, a bit unrealistic for the most part. But all in all a fun arcade style racing game.

Bad Graphics, Stupid, Not Fun AT ALL! Not easy to figure out. Not worth the money, if it isn't fun to play. Wouldn't recommend it for anyone.

I like the variety of vehicles in this racing game because the vehicles in this game are combined from different vehicles. I dislike the big trucks on the roads because they are hard to see at night. I bought this game because it has the most free riding room of any racing game I have played.

This game is great! The graphics are amazing and the is no end to the level. You can fing mountains in the background that are barely visable and drive to them. Lots of different vehicles to choose from. All sorts of terrain. Buy this game!
