 oosely based on the famous film franchise (there’s little actual tie-in or plot from the movies), The Fast and the Furious aspires to add a unique, drift-racing focus to the popular street racing genre. While Eutechnyx has constructed a solid foundation – the graphics are decent and there is a very wide selection of real-world cars and myriad performance and cosmetic upgrades – the game ultimately fails to deliver in a number of areas. I found the feel of the control very clunky and often got a headache from the overdone camera shake effects that only serve to emphasize the slightly sub-par framerate. It also feels that winning races depends more on how many upgrades you’ve purchased rather than your skill. With the enhanced version of Midnight Club 3 retailing for $20, I see little need for this title.
