Codies pumps Fuel for French revolution in racing
Replacing political and social unrest with "go-anywhere" driving, Codemasters has partnered with French dev Asobo Studios to publish the company's open world-style racer, Fuel, for the Xbox 360, PS3, and PC sometime next year. Asobo's track record isn't likely to relieve you of your socks anytime soon, however. The studio's recent efforts include video game adaptations of Ratatouille, Wall-E and The Mummy, so we're not expecting another GRiD or DiRT just yet.
On top of dynamic weather and dozens of drivable vehicles, Codies boasts that Fuel will feature the "largest environment ever created" in a racing game, and that the game's absurd 5,000 square miles of weather-ravaged terrain will "revolutionize" the genre. There is that old saying about size not mattering as much as how you use it, though clearly this is not the approach being used here.

So will it be sandbox style like Burnout Paradise? Sounds intresting.... Wonder what the next sequel will be named....

It may not have "relieved me of my socks", but it certainly has given me a hard-on.

Here's a link to the debut trailer... Not the most impressive, and they have some of their facts messed up, but still. The game overall sounds promising.
