Asphalt: Injection
Asphalt: Injection
Asphalt: Injection, développé par Gameloft et édité par Ubisoft Entertainment, est un jeu de course arcade sorti le 17 décembre 2011 sur PlayStation Vita. Le titre propose de piloter parmi 52 voitures sous licence dans des lieux internationaux, à travers trois modes de jeu principaux nommés « Career », « Free » et « Multiplayer ».
L'accueil critique fut mitigé, avec une note moyenne agrégée de 53,67. Impulsegamer a salué un jeu de course intéressant et amusant sur la console, tout en le jugeant finalement oubliable car trop prudent. De son côté, Gaming Age a suggéré que l'on pouvait trouver beaucoup de contenu si l'on acceptait des visuels honnêtement en deçà d'autres sorties du lancement. Certains joueurs sur Metacritic ont exprimé leur frustration face à une physique médiocre, des circuits laids et un comportement étrange des véhicules, tandis que d'autres ont au contraire considéré le titre comme l'une des meilleures courses sur PS Vita, citant une bonne graphisme et un bon gameplay.

Avis des critiques et joueurs
Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« Asphalt Injection is an interesting and fun racer on this console, yet ultimately forgettable as it doesn't really stray too much from the safe zone. »
« All in all, if you can get your ego past the door and past the visuals of the game, which are honestly not the best this launch lineup has, you will find a lot of engine under the hood which makes the ride more enjoyable than you might expect. I urge you to at least try the demo up on PSN, and if you feel that the game offers enough game play and visual wise, then I can assure you that the depth more make makes up for the lack of polish the game's appearance achieves. »
« Asphalt Injection is admittedly a fun and competent racer that delivers a surprising amount of licensed vehicles, interesting locations, and arcade-style racing perfect for the casual crowd but one that struggles to challenge veteran racers. Sadly, the Vita doesn't bring anything new to the franchise or the genre; at least nothing worth spending $30 more than the same game on the iPad. Still, if you need a racing fix for your new PS Vita, and those cutesy karts and characters in ModNation Racers aren't for you, Asphalt Injection isn't a bad diversion and will certainly fill that gap until Ridge Racer finally arrives. »
« Asphalt: Injection is the Prius of the racing genre: it's not great, but it'll get you by. »
« Asphalt Injection is a good racing game. Too many references to Burnout and the lack of spectacularity prevent the game from breach hearts of passionate arcade drivers. »
« Even though Asphalt: Injection is one of the few racing games available for the Vita, it's tough to recommend it. If you absolutely need a portable racing fix, Injection isn't a bad option. There's plenty to do in the game, it's just that much of what there is to do is extremely boring. »
« It's a case of quantity over quality. [May 2012, p.101] »
« Jolty driving physics, a rudimentary online mode – everything reminds of the iOS roots. But in the end Asphalt still is the mediocre arcade racer it always was. »
Avis des Joueurs (Metacritic)
« Asphalt: Уныние - убогая физика, уродские трасы и странное поведение машин при погонях гарантированно подарят вам один из самых фрустрирующих опытов в гоночных играх. »
« Одна из лучших гонок на пс вита. Из плючов игры можно отметить хорошую графику, геймплей и тд »

« I was hesitant to pick this one because the reviews are so mixed. I'll review this game on its own merit, not comparing to other editions on smartphones or other racing games. Pros: -Fun/addictive gameplay. -Many racing challenges (time trial, head to head, against a field of other cars, out-run the cops, etc) -Earn money to purchase upgrades and new cars -Many tracks and cars available -Controls are easy to use, UI is simple and works, sound, etc.. -Online mode Cons: -Online mode is usually empty / hard to find others to race against -Graphics are good but not HD quality WOW you. »
« Not a bad game. Its good to kill time with it while in the Bus or toilet but it wont keep You for long as it gets boring fast. You should definetely borrow it or buy during some major discount, do not buy for full price. »
« Controlling the car with the analog stick is terrible but once you turn on the motion sensors the game becomes playable, and more importantly FUN. Graphics are nice too, but better textures would be welcome. »
« Its just an port of a iphone game.This is the WORST Vita game I've had. Just yesterday got a Vita with Resistance: Burning Skies and Uncharted: Golden Abyss. They both were awesome. Today I got this, and this is just crap. I feel like the game developer is laughing at me for buying this game. It has too little content to begin with. The content it has isn't all that great either »

I feel like the game developer is laughing at me for buying this game. It has too little content to begin with. The content it has isn't all that great either. An its got atrocious graphics when compared to the other two Vita games. Just nothing seems to be right. I gave it a 2 for whatever content it offers. Seriously, I'm being generous. Please, I solemnly advice you to NEVER even think of buying this game cuz there are other Vita titles which deserve your money better. »
