Developer: Pseudo Interactive
Publisher: Sega
Release Date: Q4 2005
"It's basically Burnout with guns," is how we found ourselves describing Full Auto to those of us unfortunate enough to have not seen it with their own eyes. "So it's game of the show, right?" often came the response. We'd laugh that up--but we weren't kidding around. After all, when you take the gut-wrenchingly fast-paced racing-and-crashing action of a game like Burnout and combine it with lots and lots of shooting mayhem, you've got a winning formula as far as we're concerned. Full Auto is weighed down by none of the pretenses of a sweeping epic. But of all the Xbox 360 games we've seen so far, it's definitely the most fun to play and makes us that much more eager for the system's launch this fall.
Even though the current generation of consoles could probably accomplish a lot of what Full Auto is attempting to do, it just wouldn't be able to offer the same horsepower that the Xbox 360 so awesomely does. The game looks really slick, and it features these spectacularly explosive races where everything seems to be going up in smoke and flames all at once. Then, on top of that, you can even reverse time to avert disaster, kind of like in Blinx or Prince of Persia, but instead you're a car with guns. It's enough to make our heads spin.
Official Trailer
The official trailer for Full Auto pretty much says it all about this white-hot racing/shooting game.
As if it weren't enough that Full Auto was already looking really good at E3 2005, Sega went ahead and did what so few other publishers had the guts (or the code) to do, which was to put the game right there on the show floor for all to see, play, and consider. We eagerly did all that, and came away from Full Auto very much looking forward to it as something that could end up being one of the premier Xbox 360 launch titles. It's got all the makings of a fun-filled, visually stunning arcade racer that just about anyone could get behind.
