Amazon.com Product Description
In FUEL players race across and explore the world’s largest racing environment – over 5,000 square miles of spectacular wilderness. Set to revolutionize multi-terrain, multi-vehicle racing, FUEL is a fiercely competitive, open-world game without boundaries. On and off-road, two and four-wheeled vehicles race a massively diverse environment, from scaling the highest snowcapped mountain to racing the deepest arid canyon.  Expansive open-world environments. View larger. |  Dramatic weather effects View larger. |  In-game mixing of vehicle classes. View larger. |  Extreme off-road action. View larger. |  Smoking road racing. View larger. | Story In an alternate present, vast stretches of America have become no-go areas as the devastating effects of global warming ravage the continent. Floods, storms, brush fires, tornadoes and hurricanes have driven people from towns and cities into safe zones as extreme weather wreaks havoc, creating thousands of square miles of dangerous uninhabitable areas. People turn to renewable energy in the face of the destruction caused by this catastrophe. But these danger zones have also become a playground for a new breed of racer. With a stockpile of fuel to be burned, adrenaline junkies head into the wilderness to compete against each other in spectacular races against themselves and the elements. Vehicles FUEL features 70 different unlockable vehicles designed to support pick up and play arcade style fun. Each of these feature aggressive styling, unique performance and surface specific handling and can compete with each other no matter how or where they are united. The six different vehicle classes include:  | Bikes Bikes are fast, quick and easy to handle, but what they have in speed they lack in durability, so ride around trees, not into them. |  | ATVs ATV's four wheels offer more stability than bikes and their size allows them to be able to sneak in very narrow spaces. |  | Muscle Cars Muscle cars have enough speed and strength to face extreme conditions, making them a good choice for any kind of racer. |  | SUVs Powerful, stout and durable, SUVs make up for their lack of speed with all the hit that they can take before breaking down. |  | Buggies The smallest of cars and the easiest to handle, buggies are definitely fast, but durability can be an issue with them. |  | Trucks The largest and strongest vehicles, trucks will not daze you with speed, but they'll knock you out for sure with power. | Race Types and Challenges FUEL features a wealth of race types and challenges. Races include A2B Time Trials, Checkpoint Races, Circuit Races and Raid Races; while some of the additional challenges include 'Long Raids'--races that can last for hours--and 'Knock Out' events, which are checkpoint races where the last racer to cross the line is eliminated. Never Get Lost With GPS Each vehicle in the game comes equipped with a unique GPs system. Showing up on the game screen's heads-up display (HUD), arrows display a route that will take advantage of the distinctive capabilities of that vehicle, always indicating that fastest, most appropriate route. Race well and players are alerted to an extra route--one that is riskier, more hazardous--but potentially quicker. Of course, you can always choose to switch the GPs off and forge your own way through the wilderness. Key Features - Open-world racing - The largest open-world racing arena ever, with 14,000 square km of streaming game world and 100,000 miles of trails.
- Vehicles Galore - Drive over 70 unique vehicles in six different classes including: bikes, ATVs, muscle cars, SUVs, buggies and trucks.
- Weather Effects - Experience how extreme weather conditions affect the race from rain to snow to sandstorms and destructive tornadoes.
- Race Types - Compete in multiple categories of race types including: time trials, checkpoint races, circuit races and raid races.
- Multiplayer Support - FUEL features 2-16 player online support via Xbox LIVE.
- Online Racing - Compete against friends online in all 70 career races as well as online free rides.
- GPs Technology - Each vehicle in FUEL features onboard GPs functionality ensuring you will never be lost.
Online Support FUEL is a seamlessly integrated offline and online gameworld featuring hundreds of challenges across countless locations. Players can compete against friends in all of the game's 70 career races, as well as online free rides via Xbox LIVE. In addition, to these pre-designed events players can use the powerful route editor to create their own challenges set anywhere in FUEL's world and share them online. |

Very fun open world racing game July 21, 2010 Sebastion Ashcraft (Texas, U.S.A) This game is really, really fun. Think of Dirt but its open world and you can use these array of vehicles.
The graphics are pretty good, but its better when seen in HD on a nice big tv. The games cycle can be from bad weather, to a very
hot day to pure black nights (no kidding, the night time in this game sucks so much). The world itself is V E R Y large, and it'll
take time to travel from one point all the way to another point in the game map, take my word on it being HUGE. All in all, this game is pretty cheap now, so why not buy it, go ahead and get it, You'll enjoy it if you like racing games, especially something like dirt.
The games that goes forever! July 20, 2010 Rob Huddleston aren't you tired of playing games were you reach the end of the boundaries and can only look out to the vast world beyond and never know what is out there...... well FUEL has no boundaries pick your favorite set of wheels and ride of into the sunset tackling lite rain storms to blazing hurricanes and sand storms. Choose from a rich selection of more than 70 cars and go to the beach,mountains,forest,desert,salt flats,canyons and burning forests you even mite find a city buried from a sand storm or hit by a fierce earth quake and flood. choose from a wide selection of customization from helmets,shirts.pants and cool colors and visuals to turn that hunk into a hot rod. The music is dull and depressing but turn down the in game music and get out those speakers and sub woofer and blast your favorite music! This game is so good that if you start you cant stop the fun never ends!! so what are you waiting for! go pick up a copy at your local game store or get over night shipping! LET THE FUN BEGIN!!!!
Great game...if you have a super system June 19, 2010 LTLmike 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
I have been wanting to buy Fuel for some time, and at $4.00, I thought now was the time. The install was quite straightforward; you can just set it to install and let it run for about 20 minutes. When I first ran Fuel, it's video setting was set to display at maximum, so the game barely ran. I turned down the video setting to minimum and it ran, but the video quality was far from smooth. The frame rate was too high for my PC to handle, and I have a fairly new PC. In conclusion, from what I played, Fuel seems like a great game, but BEWARE: you must have a powerful gaming PC with a great graphics card to play it.
Don't waste your money. February 27, 2010 D. Pescetto (Chicago) Awesome HUGE world but, not much to do. racing is SLOOOOOW until 10 hrs in. Generally a good idea that coulda been fun but there's not enough polish.
Games for windows sucks February 1, 2010 Paul Wenner 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is a great game till you have to deal with GFWL I was almost halfway through the game then made the mistake of joining GFWL and lost everything and now the game wont even run when I log in to GFWL. It will run when not logged in but you cant save your progress which also makes it suck. Save your money and buy something that doesnt use Games for Windows - Live. It's bad enough having to be forced to deal with crap like GFWL but if I dont want it I should still be able to play and save in single player. I dont need some geeks controlling me the government does enough of that already
