    Minus the crazy physics, Fatal Inertia really doesn’t advance the genre in any meaningful ways. I like the game, but moreso because it reminds me of other games I enjoy than because I love it in its own right.

    Fatal Inertia isn’t a bad first foray into the racing genre for Koei. It’s got a good look, decent personalization and a unique arsenal that should keep players somewhat entertained.

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

    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.    … Full Review »
