The fast and the furious--getting some online gaming action

Still can't get enough of that action-packed sit-on-the-edges-of-your-seats racing movie? Why not try some first-hand action and get some racing done on your own?


The Fast and the Furious online racing game will give you that drag racing rush you want to get.
The Fast and the Furious racing game has simple but clean graphics, and real-enough roaring sound effects. Not too flashy on either departments, but the tidy work on both makes up for it.



The game starts with a choice of four race cars: a green 1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse, a black 1969 Dodge Charger, an orange 1995 Toyota Supra Turbo, and a night blue Honda S2000. The player has the option to choose the speed and quality of connection and the difficulty of the game.



The controls of the game are not too complicated, so you will have no trouble remembering them: SPACE BAR for changing gear up, CTRL for changing gear down, UP arrow for accelerating, DOWN arrow for brakes, and LEFT and RIGHT arrows for swerving left and right.

Now that we've covered the basics, you're all set to get some action right in front of your pc. Race along the streets in the Fast and the Furious game.

Wazzzaaaaaaaaap?

Okay, okay, that greeting's been gone since those Bud commercials faded away a few years back. Hecka funny commercials though, weren't they?

Anyway, here's a blog where I get to blab about one of the greatest inventions known to man - video games. Yup, the hours that we spend mashing away at keyboards and D-pads, the all-nighters we pull to beat some bad ass bosses and unlock secret stages, the 24 hour Gran Turismo races that just shock our systems to no end - it's all good. Here's my tribute to it. Hey, Dungeon and Dragons was fun, but video games just brought it to a whole 'nother level. Know what I mean?

Game on!
