  • Summary: Full Auto combines fully-automatic, weapon-equipped vehicles with highly detailed urban landscapes, offering the most destructive environments ever featured in the racing genre. In Full Auto, the city of Staunton is held hostage by a mysterious group known only as The Shepherds. As a retiredFull Auto combines fully-automatic, weapon-equipped vehicles with highly detailed urban landscapes, offering the most destructive environments ever featured in the racing genre. In Full Auto, the city of Staunton is held hostage by a mysterious group known only as The Shepherds. As a retired driver, you are coerced by the Shepherds into a series of lethal street races, where the cost of competing is far greater than anyone ever expected. 'Unwreck', a new feature that makes mid-race "restarts" a thing of the past, allows players to rewind short periods of time. Botch a turn? Correct it. Miss a shortcut? Go back and take it. Under heavy fire? Use a second chance to evade the competition. And Xbox Live support ensures significant replay value for gamers itching to take on human opponents in both grand-scale arena modes and full-throttle races. Full Auto allows players to choose from a wide selection of unique vehicle designs and arm them with any combination of machine guns, cannons, and other deadly weapons before taking to the streets. The rules of the road don't apply in this high-octane, no-holds-barred competition. [Sega] Expand

  1. High speed, intense firepower, rewind ability, online racing. Put all these together and you have yourself one top notch title, or as we like to say, a must have game.
  2. Full Auto may not push the boundaries of in-depth, innovative gameplay, but for all intents and purposes it is a blast of a game to play nonetheless and delivers non-stop explosive thrills from start to finish.
  3. The game could use a bit more variety, but the included race types, different cars and weapons, and decent replay value somewhat balance it out.
  4. There’s a slight lack of presentation, continuity, and flow to the entire title, which unfortunately breaks Full Auto down to its core elements- combat and racing. While combat and racing are great together, most of us will be yearning for more from next-gen software.

    As an excuse to consume as many explosions as humanly possible, it’s an extremely wholesome affair. [Mar 2006, p.107]

    Whilst Full Auto is an enjoyable game, it's still an ultimately limited title that isn't going to hold your interest for nearly as long as you would expect. This is a game you play in short bursts rather than for hours on end.

    There are around ten hours in the single player mode, but it begins to grate after the first. Chances are the remaining time will be spent purely to earn some 360 Achievement Points. Entertainment? Tedium.

    Full Auto is a crazy fun,brilliant racing game,which is like the video game equivalent to Death Race.

    Full Auto's standout features are Unwreck[a rewind feature which is when rewind features started to come into games],destructible enviroments,and weapons attached to the vehicles

    Graphically,Full Auto looked great for the time it released in 2006,and to this day,hasn't aged too badly since then.Presentation is pretty good too.

    The sound is decent with licensed music,decent engine noises,and great gun and explosion sounds.

    Gameplay is where Full Auto shines,with balanced cars and weapons,great tracks,and good game types.Choices you have weaponwise range from rocket launcher to dual-wielded machine guns on the front,and grenade launchers to smokescreens on the back.

    The game features a pretty in-depth career and split-screen multiplayer as well,so there is definitely replay value here.

    Overall,Full Auto is an absolutely great game,and is definitely worth a play.

    Does it strech the bounds of gaming ? NO ! Does it have the best grapihics on the 360? No ! Is it one of the most enjoyable driving games Does it strech the bounds of gaming ? NO ! Does it have the best grapihics on the 360? No ! Is it one of the most enjoyable driving games I've played on the 360? YES. If you have reservations, try renting it first. This game reminds me of the simple yet enjoyable arcade games of the past. I think the review (critics) are looking for the next driving game revolution. This isnt it. It simply is what it is, FUN!

I really liked the early videos, and the demo was a blast. However, when are we going to get a racing game that you can play 4 player split-screen (or at least an online setup like Halo2 where you can play against only your friends online)? And only 5 courses? It does not matter how many modes you have, if you only have 5 courses, the game will get old very quickly. Come on! This is next generation! My excitement about this game has diminished greatly, but I will still probably give it a chance. Expand

Plutôt laid et saccadé mais rien de catastrophique non plus et au moins ça charge rapidement. Au final, les soucis courants dans ce type de jeu ultra con : répétitivité, lassitude et l'IA qui triche dans les derniers niveaux. Expand
