Fast & Furious Crossroads Reviews
Can you think of anything related to action racers? Then there's a high possibility of it being wrong in the game. It's hard to look for positives on Fast and Furious - you'll spend most of the playtime being bored and telling yourself that even most of the last gen games didn't look as bad as this one. Unfortunately, this is another title in the line of stillborn licensed games.

Fails to meet minimum standards delivers a cheapened frustrating experience that is only tolerable in finite quantities.
The Fast and Furious franchise seems to be haunted by a curse when it comes to video game adaptations. Fast and Furious: Crossroads is no exception to this taboo, bringing a graphic quality, storyline and gameplay far below what a franchise of this level deserves. If you are a fan of this recent wave of films full of amazing action, you will certainly have your moments of fun, but in my case the cons weighed much more in the end.

Fast & Furious Crossroads is the closest the series has come yet to delivering an experience worthy of the blockbuster movie franchise, but skids off track with dull missions, frustrating mechanics, and lonely multiplayer lobbies. Crucially, the driving itself just isn't fun, resulting in a bland experience interchangeable with any other street racing franchise.
With dreadful driving controls, insufficient content and an egregious price tag, it's hard to recommend Fast & Furious Crossroads to anyone unless you are a die-hard Fast & Furious fan. Even then, wait for a steep sale.
Fast & Furious Crossroads is one of the worst games I've played this year and possibly the worst game of the generation. Even if you are a fan of the movie franchise, you should definitely stay away from this awful experience.

Fast & Furious Crossroads is a below average movie adaptation. Considering the AAA price tag, avoid it even if you worship Vin Diesel.

The biggest sin that Crossroads commits is being boring; a sad take for a franchise that is definitively not. Whether you like the series or not, you can't argue that the films are almost always bombastic and entertaining, whereas here it's just really uninteresting and flat, doing both the Fast and Furious franchise and driving games both a disservice. There are some bad licensed games out there that I could still recommend to the hardcore fans out of love for the series but Fast and Furious Crossroads is so bad that only the absolute die-hard fans will get any enjoyment out of this one. And even then, you may want to strongly reconsider this stain on an otherwise loved franchise.
Fast & Furious Crossroads is a melting pot of ideas, none of which have had time to mature. Poor vehicle handling, weird pacing, unloved online multiplayer, inconsistent visuals, the list goes on. All of those Facebook comments lambasting the trailer for 'PS2-era graphics' are wide of the mark. It's PS2-era physics, dialogue and level design too.
"Hey yo, Dom! Why'd you bring the buster here?"
Fast & Furious Crossroads is yet another uninspired licensed game with lousy driving mechanics, dated graphics and a short, forgettable story.
No matter how you spin it, Fast and Furious Crossroads is just plain bad in nearly every way.
Short, shallow, and surprisingly simple, Fast & Furious Crossroads is a disappointment in almost every department.
Fast & Furious Crossroads just can't get anything right, becoming yet another licensed movie tie-in that fits the negative stereotype. The presentation is dated and actors reprising their roles is but a small consolation. A brief and very linear campaign with poor gameplay offers terrible value for a full priced release. The PC version suffers further, with empty multiplayer, instability, and barely any options.
Fast & Furious Crossroads combines a great driving game with the franchise's signature campy machismo for a fun movie experience.
Crossroads also has a multiplayer option, which at least sounds fun, but there aren't enough people playing this game, so it's not viable unless you were looking for a "waiting for a game" simulator.
Seeing the crew behind the wheel again is good, but they deserve so much better than this
Another deeply disappointing Fast & Furious game that's all the more upsetting because of the obvious talent it wastes in terms of both developer and cast.
