MasonicGamer.com: Back in the early 90′s one of the games I remember most vividly were the Micro Machines games, I recall the cartridge itself had two extra controller ports for some multi-player mayhem. Since then the “RC” racing genre has died off and the last game I remember enjoying was Circuit Breakers on the original PlayStation. Fuel Overdose seems like the perfect comeback for these types of games but sadly all it does is make sure that the genre stays dead.
Fuel Overdose sounds pretty good on paper, a small digital download “RC” racer that picks up where Micro Machines left off but part of making an enjoyable game is making sure you can execute on ideas. There’s nothing useful about having a list of ideas and concepts if you don’t have anyone to turn those into reality. Sadly Fuel Overdose is just that, a collection of solid ideas and nothing more.
As much as we love to read stories (and write them!) about indie success, as it means that the developer is living out the creative dream, there are many more examples of failed investments than there are of runaway successes.
Here's one story about a developer that only managed to sell 600 copies worldwide of a PSN game.
As we sit on the precipice of Grand Theft Auto V’s midnight release, with millions of sales sure to accompany it, Skander Djerbi of I-Friqiya has some sad news about Fuel Overdose, which was released in December 2012 in Europe and March 2013 in North America. - PSLS
Wow, I never would have thought this was possible. Hopefully they get it up on other platforms to increase sales.
How could a game that critics said "isn’t satisfying in the least" end up also not being interesting enough for people to buy? It's like the game isn't satisfying or something :O
(Also the price should be lower.)
Skander Djerbi from the Fuel Overdose team has announced that Fuel Overdose will be 1.99€ instead of 11.99€. This limited time offer will last until September 18th and is only for the PlayStation®Store.
Ok, be honest people, who clicked this because they saw just the "tiniest" hint of cleavage?......just a lil bit (cough cough)
