Wow! Based on demos alone, a conduit through which a game has its only chance to prove its worth... or why have a demo... and boy-o-boy is FUEL simply the single most monotonous 5 minutes of my every so slightly dreary life so far.

Not only is somehow the menu system boring, but the game is so so so soooo dull, calling the environment in which you race "the wasteland" and then it actually being one, its just one really bad idea after another actually executed and evidently made, by people... people I assume with access to other computer games to which they can compare the fundamentals of computer games and assess the merits.

I distinctly remember playing this game on the 3do, a, drive in a straight line from point to point following a giant arrow or map and being wowed by the technical hocus pocus. I still have a soft spot for the concept of an open world game environment... there is something, an idea, a potential there that could be harnessed by someone?

Just so catastrophically boring.
