Should be a hoot when we're hunting bison or attacking a stagecoach. <br /><br />Sam, indeed, FUEL for 12 bucks is a bargain! Got a soft spot for the underdogs, so I'm keen to just to...well...drive like a maniac in all directions.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1770260493194159847.post-37987026025995619932010-05-13T11:05:17.594+10:002010-05-13T11:05:17.594+10:00As long as they come in cordoroys, I will be there...As long as they come in cordoroys, I will be there!

I do like open world racres, but sometimes I just crave a menu that says race 1-1 or Easy Drift 3. So I know what I'm up for. <br /><br />Can't wait for Red Dead Redemption now, scouring the west for big cats and then making some sweet-ass couture pelts.

It does look aweosme though. If I found it for $12, I would pick it up!Grimy Juanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08589676754400329519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1770260493194159847.post-32555000472621130112010-05-13T09:06:58.141+10:002010-05-13T09:06:58.141+10:00Well, Just Cause 2, you just made my list. *Nixon...Well, Just Cause 2, you just made my list. *Nixon Voice*<br /><br />And in regards to FUEL, not sure what to expect, but I hear if you directly compare it to its contemporaries (DIRT, Pure, Motorstorm), you end up missing the unspoken point of FUEL...which is more the interaction between player and landscape, rather than using it as a means to an end. I dunno, after the recent joy found wihtin Far Cry 2, Red Faction Guerrilla etc., vast tracts of beautiful open terrain is just the thing I'm keen for. <br /><br />I hear the free roam mode online with friends is somewhat of a niche, unconventional multiplayer breakthrough, strangely enough. Just players on their vehicles roaring across huge distances, up and down mountains, across valleys of burnt forests, though aircraft graveyards, over deserts. For me, at least, that notion sounds a lot more enticing than, say, Burnout Paradise.<br /><br />But hey, I'll let you know when it arrives.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1770260493194159847.post-9989573014258521202010-05-13T06:17:15.750+10:002010-05-13T06:17:15.750+10:00O as jump would mess with the experience. The game...O as jump would mess with the experience. The game almost encourages you to take it a leisurely pace. I can remember playing through only 2 chases and 2 timed escape sequences in the game! That's 4 times total where I felt something reminiscent of pressure. <br /><br />Is FUEL any good? I loved the cover art, not that that usually translates to actually enjoying a game.Dutchiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05155243465740744788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1770260493194159847.post-16850377151153852722010-05-12T21:50:15.065+10:002010-05-12T21:50:15.065+10:00Great write-up, Trits.

Sounds like a great game...my time with the demo was piss-poor on account of the devs not taking into account Japanese PS3s, so I couldn't jump on account of the circle and x buttons being switched. But, I think I'll pick this up down the track, ala Red Faction Guerrilla, and enjoy it at a leisurely pace. <br /><br />Speaking of open-world, just nabbed FUEL on ebay for 12 bucks. That looks like my kind of game; flawed, yet ambitious!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
