Classic Game Room HD reviews FUEL for Xbox 360, Fuel is also on Playstation 3 PS3 and PC. Fuel is an arcade style driving game where you can drive around 5000 square miles of post-apocalypic, scorched earth and race in a variety of off-road style car races. This CGRHD review of FUEL has gameplay from Fuel showing game play of this arcade style driving game which is like Burnout Paradise meets The Road Warrior. Drive motorcycles, atv's, buggys, trucks and SUV's in Fuel. Race in challenge races, career races or multiplayer races. Customize your driver, find vistas and explore, Fuel gives you a lot of things to do with some clever weather effects, colors and challenging races. If you're a fan of Codemaster's Dirt and Grid, Fuel may not be the game you're expecting. But if you like biking games and ATV video games then you may really dig this one, or Burnout mixed with off road mayhem. Classic Game Room HD reviewed Fuel for Xbox 360 and PS3 as a PS3 and Xbox 360 reviewing driving games in HD like Fuel. Has the world's largest explorable environment, so they say. It's BIG!

This is the most underrated game ever. At least it got a world record for the largest video game map.

@GoudaBug 9 жыл бұрын

... on consoles. The game with the largest map to date is The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall at 62,394 square miles. It's as big as the state of Georgia. To put that into comparison, Fuel's map is 5,560 square miles. Yup.

Daniel Brennan I don't know, but wouldn't Elite Dangerous be the largest game ever? It has a 1:1 scale Milky Way galaxy.(100 000 light years across)

Daniel Brennan this is actually bigger I think you were watching the "top 10 biggest maps" video witch had many things wrong in it. The only thing bigger than this is minecraft but that is randomly generated. I saw this one guy who did all the research and said that fuel is 20x bigger than Dagger fall. Not sure if true but file is in fact bigger.

I genuinely have no idea why people hate this game. The gameplay is challenging and very fun once you are used to it, the map is of surprisingly good quality gameplay wise considering its quantity, the vehicle variety is insane, the vehicle designs are cool, the artstyle is phenomenal, and it has a unique and distinguished vibe that was surprisingly notable despite many comparable post-apocalyptic games in the era.

no doubt fuel was heavily inspired by mad max. its definitely one of the reasons why they called it fuel. in a world like that fuel is a very valuable resource. i think the title fits. one look at the box art and you Instantly know what kind of game it is. the fact that it's the biggest open world game that came out between daggerfall and Minecraft is just a sweat cherry on top of an excellent game.

Emilios Gregoriou if you have to go as far as personally feeling something and looking carefully i dont call that a conceptual nitro boost (i have the game), there is no button that increases your speed by 10% or even less for that matter (burnout, need for speed, freestyle metal x, motorstorm ... pretty much every arcade racer) .. in the end it misses it imo. Even if the speed automatically increased by a conciderable margin when you reach a surthen speed that would be a horrible game mechanic.

@Quartrez It may be the largest size wise, it is an entire country essentially, but as you said in your other reply its mostly empty space just with some areas to explore within them. Its not all open space you can just explore at your leasure, that would be amazing though. With Fuel we are looking at over 8.5 thousand quare miles of open terrain that is entirely open for you to explore. I'm not sure how much there is to Daggerfall, I'm sure its up there too, but 8.5k miles is ALOT.

The roads are more scenic and you have much more grip so you go much faster on tarmac in cars, which is fun and also sometimes the fastest way to get from a to b. And this game is literally gigantic! It'll easy take upto 3-4 hours to drive from one end of the map to the other.

You can make a great use of techniques like opposite lock to counter oversteer slides and hand break turns. It gets quite fun to drive. Also different terrains give different amounts of grip. You're nicely planted on tarmac while sliding everywhere on ice! Its an amazing game! And huge is an understatement to describe the world!!
