Fuel - Codemasters

Bit of discussion about it in the console section http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18015920
Seems like its failry average (read two 5/10 reviews), apparantly while the size of it is fairly impressive, there just isnt enough reason to use the vast landscape and that the AI generally only stick to one or two paths for races. Ashame really, was looking forward to it.

There are plenty of positive reviews around:

Edge - 8/10
TeamXbox - 7.8/10
Guardian Online - 4/5
Times Online - 4/5
OXM UK - 7/10
PSM UK - 8/10

The vast majority of user reviews on the Codemasters FUEL forum have also been very positive.
 
I've cancelled my pre-order, if it's slipped twice then it's unlikely to be right out of the box.

I'm still waiting for the cheat disabling 1.3 patch for GRID...
 
Official game site is advertising PC version for sale, £27. I got an email from them today saying it was available.

I have done the same thing, but because of the poor reviews speaking of the lack of variety in the game.
And I was really looking forward to this being an awesome game :(

I don't really see the correlation myself; a fair proportion of games are released on schedule with major flaws, sometimes even having 0-day patches. In fact one could argue that slippage is a good thing in that it means more time is being spent to correct flaws, rather than a desperate rush to get something out the door simply for the sake of a deadline (movie tie-ins are a good example of this).
 
Wonder if Fuel will be on Steam like GRID is ... both are Codemasters distributed games afterall

It's on Steam, but unable to pre-load yet.

Let's hope they'll price it competitively this time.

This should be out soon? Are there achievements on the PC version?

I've go it pre-ordered, for the 3rd of July (US get's it today, apparently :()
Unsure about the achievements though

It's listed under Games for Windows Live but would like to make sure.

Yeah, the GFW thing is a bit of a let-down (prefer to use Steam for community-related stuff).
But people are saying that the achievements for the X360 will be ported over to the PC.

Its 100% confirmed as having LIVE achievements on PC. Was also supposed to be cross platform but think that got dropped. Should be a great game managed to pre-order it for only £18 from the rain fores.t
 
So... is this actually out yet anywhere? I stopped believing press reviews of games about 10 years ago in favor of Demos or listening to actual real life gamers reviews.
 
One online place says 26th June. It is listed on Steam with screenshots etc but no info on dates, how to order, etc which is a bit odd.
 
Game looks pretty cool. Watched the review that was linked. Will probably buy this one. Always liked the MX ATV games on the 360 so will probably like this too, especially as it's on PC
