PS3 Preview | Full Auto 2: Battlelines

There might be nothing we like less about the console launch period than the 'sequel that isn't a sequel'. (Aside from hardware shortages, that is.) Just as Ridge Racer 7 is really Ridge Racer 6.5, Sega's upcoming Full Auto 2 looks like less a true sequel than an upgrade of the original Xbox 360 release. That matters less, of course, if you've never played ... » Read More

PS3 Preview | Full Auto 2: Battlelines

Full Auto 2, as we're fond of pointing out... finally makes sense. The last game was a bunch of shit blowing up in search of an idea; this one pits you against people online and suddenly it makes a heck of a lot more sense. Now, when you smash a stack of pipes and they crush your opponents - even in the single-player mode - you get the satisfaction.

On 360, the game was kind of a mess - yes, it looked great and controlled well, but the fact that you were blowing the hell out of buildings didn't seem to have much, if anything, to do with the actual racing.

PS3 Preview | Full Auto 2: Battlelines

Friday 19 May 2006 Full Auto 2: Battlelines, the PS3's first car-combat game, already looks like a marked improvement over its repetitive Xbox 360 predecessor. Sega's still keeping the single-player portion under wraps, but we've spent some time tearing around one of the eight-player deathmatch arenas, and it's explosive stuff. Taking the focus off racing, Full Auto 2 let us pick from four cars - two muscle cars, a sleek (but extremely light) sports car and an SUV that carries extra armour - ... » Read More

E3 06: Full Auto 2: Battlelines - hands-on

PS3 Preview | Full Auto 2: Battlelines

The PS3's first car-combat game is coming this fall, and Full Auto 2: Battlelines already looks like a marked improvement over its repetitive Xbox 360 predecessor. Sega's still keeping the single-player portion under wraps, but we've spent some time tearing around one of the eight-player deathmatch arenas, and it's explosive stuff.
