      Fast & Furious Crossroads Review Round-Up

      Fast & Furious: Crossroads launched August 7, however evaluations haven’t been forthcoming–it appears that only a few media acquired code for the sport, and people who did definitely did not have them in time for launch. GameSpot has not reviewed the title, however the websites which have coated the sport, sadly, have few good issues to say about it.Crossroads appeared, within the lead-up to launch, like a attainable winner. The recreation was developed by Slighty Mad Studios (Project Cars 3) alongside Tigon Studios, the Vin Diesel-owned studio behind The Wheelman. It options Diesel as collection mainstay Dominic Toretto, together with Michelle Rodriguez and Tyrese Gibson, reprising their roles. The Fast & Furious saga has struggled to provide recreation, however this one appeared to have an opportunity.The recreation, which was initially as a consequence of launch in May alongside F9: The Fast Saga earlier than its delay, is out now, and the few evaluations haven’t been variety. Common complaints cite poor mission design, terrible dealing with, and awful visuals, though the plot has earned some gentle reward for feeling, roughly, like a typical Fast & Furious story. There’s at the very least one flat-out optimistic evaluation thus far, too–we’ve included it beneath.The evaluations are, at the very least, extra optimistic than those Fast & Furious: Showdown acquired. But it appears that evidently the very best Fast & Furious recreation ever stays Forza Horizon 2 Presents Fast & Furious, which has lengthy since been de-listed and wasn’t precisely heavy on Fast & Furious taste.Game: Fast & Furious: CrossroadsPlatforms: PC, Xbox One, PS4Developer: Slightly Mad StudiosLaunch date: August 7Price: $60 / £50 / $90 AUDThe Gamer – 8/10″I can understand why some people might bounce off Crossroads. Its story is campy, its driving unrealistic, and its physics and graphics a bit on the wonky side. This is the furthest thing from a polished AAA experience, and it’s very clear that Bandai Namco isn’t marketing it much because of that. But here’s the thing – I value creativity, fun, and focus over polish, to an extent. To me, Crossroads is bursting with those things. Yeah, it’s janky and a bit dumb, but what other game this year is going to let you chase a space shuttle through New Orleans?” – Bella Blondeau [Full Review]Game Informer – 5/10″Many of us lived through the era of video games that was overflowing with bad movie-to-game adaptations, and Crossroads is a pointed reminder of those days, showing just how far games have come since then. It’s a mess of a game that hones in on why the Fast movies are great, but will make you want to put the controller down to watch one of those movies instead.” – Andrew Reiner [Full Review]The Xbox Hub – 2/5″The controls in Fast & Furious Crossroads are dreadful, with as much feel as a dead trout and as much effect on the way your race goes as rubbing your lucky rabbit’s foot. One mission sees Cam trying to win a race on a narrow course in Rio, and without a word of a lie it took me about 15 attempts to get around the course without crashing on every corner. Handbrake turns don’t work, slowing down doesn’t work – you may as well close your eyes and mutter a little prayer every time you come up to a corner, and I feel like you wouldn’t do any worse than if you tried to race properly. The secret to beating this level? Wall grinding – just letting the track take you where you need to go. Although the barriers do seem to be weirdly magnetic, as once you hit them it is hard to drive off them.” – Paul Renshaw [Full Review]Push Square – 3/10″How Fast & Furious Crossroads wound up as a full-price release will forever remain a mystery. It is lacking in every department possible, from shallow and repetitive gameplay through to abysmal visuals that belong on the previous generation of consoles. Not even the most committed Fast & Furious fans should subject themselves to this monstrosity. That is unless you want to have a good laugh alongside Vin Diesel.” – Liam Croft [Full Review]Metro – 2/10″Fast & Furious Crossroads is an unwanted reminder of the bad old days of movie tie-ins, when cheaply made games would be thrown out as quickly as possible (or not in this case) in order to make money on name recognition, before word got around that the game was no good. It had seemed that such days were long behind us, but this is just as bad as all the other Fast & Furious games, if not worse given how it wastes the behind the scenes talent.” [Full Review]Eurogamer – Avoid”Perhaps the biggest frustration, coming to Crossroads as a Fast & Furious fan, is those glimpses of what could have been, and seeing an enjoyable enough slice of series lore being under-served so severely by the game behind it. In a saner, less cruel world Crossroads might have been put to rest when it became clear it just wasn’t going to work – as it is, it’s just been left to limp out in this sorry, sorry state. What a disappointment.” – Martin Robinson [Full Review]
