Full Auto doesn't live up to the hype

Full Auto is an ok game but at the same time it fails to fulfill that next-gen need that I purchased the Xbox 360 for. It is fun for a little while but the repetitive gameplay made it less than impressive. Its fun to blow junk up, but doing it on the same track with just a few different turns, isn't. The destructibility of the environment looks fantastic, but it has no serious effect on the race itself. I liked the look if the game kind of sleek and nice. It's a shame when the car physics are so bad that the re-do button becomes a necessity. If they had fixed these simple flaws it would a great game.

after E3 this game was a very anticipated title. i mean you have guns on the hood of the cars. but as it turns out that was all the game had going for it. the graphics were decent, but then again i don't have a hdtv. the tracks at first are acceptable but lacks variety and after just fifteen minutes you can know the tracks in and out. the gameplay is just not good. the circuit races are far to easy and in the demolition races you will find that you usually will get so far out in front that you literally have to stop and wait for your competition to catch up. the game does incorporate a medal system that offers rewards for the better you do. but the downside is that they only reward you with butt ugly colors for the even uglier cars. another thing that bothered me is that the "speed" cars are just as slow as the trucks and suv. the game also lacks depth. the game is somewhat entertaining at the beginning but after a half an hour i was ready to send this game back. this game had the potential to be great but poor execution totally killed this game's chances

This is the best thing about Game fly, you don't get stuck with games like these. You know when you see a movie on dvd and say "Man if I went to the theater to see that..."

This game falls in the same category. Paying full price would suck for Full Auto. The game play is simple and very very repetitive.

One problem I had with it is no matter how good you are doing, those darn CPU players just come out of no where! I know its not a sim, but man is it annoying. Some of the car characteristic's seem to be off, the trucker is suppose to be stronger then the rest, but its a miracle if I can finish a race in one piece with that car. The gun controls can be really difficult at times, when you trying to aim with the rocket launch and taking a hairpin turn at the same time. (I usually just stick with the machine guns)

Graphics are great (duh its HD), and the sound was perfect too in 5.1 (you can hear the bullets bouncing off the cars). Some of the game play options are also sweet, like the go back in time feature that gets recharged by blowing stuff up!! They also give you LOTS to do to unlock everything, or you can go to g4/cheat and get the unlock code.

I like how they incorporated your online skill into achievement's however the game just wasn't that great for me to spend the time needed to unlock the highest levels.
