PCGH wrote down the specs of Fuel and compared minimal and maximal graphics settings.
5,000 square miles of automotive action. Extreme racing on an epic scale.
FUEL comes to Xbox Backwards Compatibility on January 10th.
Ace combat 6 is included with ac7 for preordering It, still isn't b/c even though it releases this month. I have been waiting for a long time to play it again.
I’m still praying for the 360 version of the Dreamcast classic “under defeat” coming to backwards compatible, tho I know it’s never gonna happen.
Which videogames took a sledgehammer to the open world format? Find out the games that annoyed Screen Critics the most.
I thought the open world in LA Noire was a bit of a waste, it was competent but pointless. If there was anything worth doing other than progressing the story I don't remember what it was.
Agree, boring driving through the empty city between missions was final game-killer for me.
High speed car chase...try to take short cut through someones back garden....indestructible fence
Completely agree. Apparently the open world in LA Noire was originally intended to be filled with characters that you could interact with and minor crimes to be solved but Team Bondi had such difficulty with the core game that the open world features were dropped just to get it finished.
I see. Thankfully the core game is still great IMHO, aside from the occasional animation glitch. I just opted to let my partner drive after a while as traversing the LA of the 1940s as presented in the game got old. The best parts were the main missions anyways IMHO. I believe there's stuff that needs to be done in the city to get the platinum trophy, but I just didn't bother as it was just too tedious. It has been a long time though. First and foremost I still regard LA Noir as an underrated classic that falls just short of greatness, largely due to its open world.
MGS phantom pain's open world damaged the game a lot it wasn't necessary
MGSV's open world was not needed. I spent that time just snatching up goats and baddies. Felt empty
Yeah it screamed Kojima wanting to make a new game but being stuck with MGS
It was a story which felt forced and wasn't needed.
Didn't help when the world didn't react to what you did, you could clear a base out from enemies then an hour later they'll be back at that base. At least let me clear the world out a bit. Then you have slow as shit vehicles and stupid fast travel options. I could go on...the fact it got worldwide praise and almost perfect scores baffle me.
I thought true crime LA was a pretty decent fun romp plagued only by the painful length of time it took to travel anywhere :(
I not agree that Fuel was a bad open world game. I played that game till dead. And also with my friends, whe loved it. I wish they make a Fuel game for PS4. I will buying it day one.

I know it's not out yet, but Mad Max probably deserves an honourable mention at least, should be a post-apocalyptic staple if it lives up to expectation.
Enjoyed the range of games talked about here. Nice to see Horizon Zero Dawn on the list, I'm also really excited for the game and can't wait for more information on it.
Having an unreleased game in a top ten list is very unprofessional, regardless of how promising the title is.
The Last of Us takes top honours for me but I can totally understand why someone might choose Fallout 3, it really is an incredible game.
Nice article, fun to read :)
something else >_>
What happened to Rage?
hey is this even needed, hey lets compare graphics of a game with high and low settings. i wonder which looks better
i read this today:

very nice read, I think im going to pick up the PC version later this week, just for the free roam aspect alone, only thing that's going to stop me enjoying this is if the vehicles handle really badly.
I've been thinking about picking it up on my PS3. Not sure if I should or not. I don't typically rent games, I usually just buy them. But I've heard mixed things about this one. Anyone got it on PS3?
