    That's one of the main problems with Fatal Inertia, it feels like a half-baked mod to Unreal Tournament rather than a proper game in its own right.
  2. This is the worst 360 game I have played yet. The graphics aren’t bad but a dodgy frame rate along with terrible level design, handling and collisions makes Fatal Inertia barely playable.

    Good very entertaining racing game, although it is not the best of its kind, but it can be replayable and quite challenging.

    Fatal Inertia is a decent Wipeout-style racer.

    The gameplay is decent.The crafts do feel a bit sticky at times,but don't handle
    Fatal Inertia is a decent Wipeout-style racer.

    The gameplay is decent.The crafts do feel a bit sticky at times,but don't handle terribly.Now,the collision detection is atrocious and some of the tracks are terribly designed.The combat is balanced and competent.The craft customisation is great.The game feels unfair at points though.

    The graphics are pretty good,with lush environments and good craft detail.The framerate stutters at times,but isn't detrimental to gameplay.

    The sound design is poor,but the good soundtrack makes up for it.

    Overall,Fatal Inertia is a decent Wipeout-style racer that is worth getting on the cheap.
