Critic Reviews for Fast & Furious: Arcade Edition
It just lacks content, and the brutal AI kills any replayability. Combine that with no online mode and this title falls short of a must-have.
I can well imagine that when you're situated in a hydraulic miniature car attached to an arcade machine that is blaring out the audiovisual presentation of Fast & Furious: Arcade Edition at full tilt, that it's something of a compelling if not a mildly intoxicating quick fix of arcade racing goodness. At home however, and stripped of such performative trickery, Fast & Furious: Arcade Edition fails to impress and really needs much more meat wrapped around its bones to justify its existence away from the din of the arcade scene which birthed it.
We think we could forgive its simplicity if the handling was better and the price was lower, because there is fun in the outrageous nature of some of the tracks.
I was really excited about this title, considering everything the Fast & Furious saga can bring to an arcade game, but none of what I had imagined was captured in the title.

The big problem is that racing, while seemingly breathtaking and urgent, is actually a little dull in Fast & Furious: Arcade Edition.
Looking like a shadow of the good games in the genre and the film franchise that gives it its name, Fast & Furious: Arcade Edition might be worth a couple of tokens on the dusty arcade machines in a shopping mall, but its shallow concepts and meager content are utterly insufficient for anything even remotely meaningful beyond that.

If you can't resist feeding some coins into a Fast & Furious: Arcade machine whenever you visit an arcade, you might appreciate being able to play it at home in the form of Fast & Furious: Arcade Edition. For most, though, this barebones port will feel too light on content to feel worthwhile.
