The Game Awards is usually were we see the biggest game announcements. But is Fast & Furious Crossroads really one of them?
From Xfire: "Video game enthusiast and Hollywood superstar, Vin Diesel, has taken his talents to video games numerous times. We've decided to rank all of his games from the worst to the best."
“Ranking every game with Vin Diesel from terrible to bad”
Fixed the title for you.
Obviously too young or ill-informed to pass judgement. Honestly, Orchard. You just mugged yourself off. Starbreeze Studios' The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay is a very well-known classic.
Butcher Bay was great. From the prolog, fist fighting, knife fights and story. The immersion of the whole package really uped the criteria of what a cutting edge game was back then. I would like another adventure with Riddick, but it would have to be triple A status to live up to Butcher Bay.
With the ninth movie entry in the long-running Fast Saga on everyone's mind (and starring my man Vin Diesel, among others), it's a good time to revisit the history of Fast & Furious video games.
I'm looking at the tags for this article and almost wanna report it for tag spam haha
I really wish they would release a DECENT Fast and the Furious game for consoles. It seems like a natural fit and instant brand awareness. The latest one looks like a train wreck. With all of the F and F money, you'd think they would invest a little of it into a real game.
I beat the first game in 2 nights and it was fun. I got stoned as all hell though. Just completely fried. I'm sure it wasn't actually good but I had fun and that's what matters!
I really wish Driver 1-3 could get remaster/reboot… those games kick the shit out of this fast and furious trash
Honestly that one was probably my least favorite out of them all.
Edit* actually I just remembered parallel lines… lol
Not a one was good. I rather they make Underground 3 since NFS Underground was based off of Fast and the Furious 1
Fast and the Furious Crossroads was Crap.
Neil writes: "It's fair to say that Fast & Furious Crossroads didn't exactly set the world on fire when it launched back in August 2020, but that hasn't stopped Bandai Namco from attempting to keep the game in the public eye with multiple DLC packs. Now it's time to really get the adrenaline pumping with the latest drop for the game - the Fast & Furious Crossroads: Pack 3."
Huh?
I thought the F&F announcement seemed last minute. Valve was supposed to be at the show but cancelled. Valve would have been the closer. What I don't understand is why they pushed F&F to the end rather than the Xbox announcement. That would have been a far better closer.
Every once in a while there's an opinion piece submission that makes me question the relevancy of a site that posts news to N4G. This is one of them.
You're going to tell me that the best TGA had to offer was a poorly animated, low poly, barely this generation looking game that's built upon a movie tie in? Not Ghost of Tsushima? New World? Xbox Series X reveal? Hell-freaking-blade 2? Oh, wait, you're just going to ignore those entirely to make a weird opinion piece to just talk about the one that closed it out, as if that's supposed to be the biggest announcement for a streaming award show?
Hint: the reason the other stuff was included earlier is because streaming falls off during the last hour. If it wasn't the lack of interest building up, it would be the umpteenth time they had to sit through a MtG Arena commercial. It's why in previous years the biggest news items weren't close outs either, they just weren't as bad as F&F. But they definitely weren't the big game announcements from the show.
Edit: The first paragraph is tongue-in-cheek, but this is a pretty pointless article. Feels like a way to just fill some time/space than anything else.
I had said it once and I will say it again. The only reason F&F got to close the show because Vin Diesel was there, and because Geoff Keighley‘s obsession with having celebrities on his show.
Without Vin Diesel, this game would barely be on the preshow.
During that section of the TGA's, I legit thought this was being announced for the PS2, Gamecube and Xbox, by the first glance at it's visuals and the fact that it's a movie license.
