    Seriously just stay away from this game. Horrible graphics, constant bugs and frame rate issues, missions get ridiculously repetitive, and the game is just in general horribly broken.

    This game makes NFS:The Run Wii look like a decent racing game. Bad physics, story, graphics and OST. Only decent voice acting. May the kamikaze cops from NFS:MW 2005 teach you a lesson Activision.

    I can not believe that at this point in order to generation, to develop a game with these characteristics so poor, totally disappointed of this game, I expected much more potential. not live up to any driving game of this generation and even could say that would stay bad against driving games of the old generation.
    honestly the worst game I've seen in this generation of video games.

    Game is terrible. Nothing else really needs to be said about it. Buggy missions, buggy animations, horrible cut scenes in an effort to tie-in to a fairly decent movie franchise.

    Save yourself some money and please do not support this terrible game.
    The game modes are ridiculously boring, the game will fail you without reason and the graphics are hideous and out dated. For the price this is definitely not worth it, maybe $10 on xbox arcade is justifiable.

    Very disappointed with this game. I never expected it to be brilliant, but it is a lot worse than what I thought it would be. The selection of cars are poor and driving them are just as bad and the shooting is just terrible.

The only way I would have been satisfied playing this is if I bought it for 99p and found it on a charity shop shelf. Significantly overpriced and the fact that the game fails you when you do everything right just makes it frustrating. Very, very poor.… Expand

    Another one of Activision's "Great" contributions to video gaming, Avoid buying Activision movie licensed games AT ALL COSTS. This piece of junk isn't even worthy of being in a junk collection.

    Tell me that's a joke. Tell me that's a joke. Tell me that it's just a nightmare. I do not know whether to laugh or cry. The ps1 games compared to this crap are fabulous and still fresh and current.

    See that metascore up there? That should serve as a warning to any developer that wants to squeeze a pile of out it's ass and then chuck a well known franchise on it. A big name doesn't guarantee big reviews.

    This game is the height of Movie Game Cash-In Trash, and is nothing but it. It has no entertainment value, insulting graphics, lack of a physics engine, poor controls, awful AI, and a complete lack of respect to the franchise and it's audience, whats more is that the game barely functions as a serviceable racing game, thus making it a non-playable game to begin with.

This is not only among the worst racing games, worst movie games, or worst games this year, this game should go down as one of the worst this generation, if not all time. Bury this trash along side E.T. in the Desert and erase it from your mind, and your hard drive.… Expand

    Speechless. Better than the film, better than gta 5, no lie. blows you away like a fan. The gameplay simulates real life better than likings og gran turismo and forza. See you on the streets

    I think it's a very good game, I don't see what is with all the hate. It just takes on getting used too. The soundtrack is probably the best part of this game, I absolutely love it.

    Fast & Furious: Showdown is one of the worst games we've seen so far this year. It’s technically poor, boring and doesn’t have that Fast & Furious flavor you could be looking for. And it doesn’t come at a budget price either.
