Crash Time: Autobahn Pursuit
Crash Time: Autobahn Pursuit (known in the United Kingdom as Crash Time and in the rest of Europe as Alarm für Cobra 11: Crash Time) is a mission based driving game released for the PC in 2007 and Xbox 360 in 2008. It is based around the German television series Alarm für Cobra 11 – Die Autobahnpolizei, and features several characters from the show working their way through criminal cases based around the road network of a small area of Germany. The developers created a "Pathfinder" to ensure that the AI vehicles do not always follow the same path during a pursuit. It was not received well by critics, with graphics and plot being of concern. Two sequels have been released on Xbox 360 and through online content provider Steam.

More Information
The IGN Xbox Team placed Crash Time: Autobahn Pursuit as one of the five worst driving games on Xbox 360, mainly referring to the German police setting to the game, and the poor voice acting in the English language versions. In a review for IGN by Ryan Geddes there was criticism that what could have been an exciting game has been reduced to the mundane The difficulty curve was labelled "inconsistent", with "cakewalk levels being followed immediately by nearly impossible ones".The "Cases" mode was criticised as the player cannot tell hom many missions are left until the case is completed, making the planning of a game session impossible. The missions have been described as boring and dull.
There was praise for the crashes, and it has been noted that the explosions are poor, but their resulting debris is a nice touch. Francis Clarke of AceGamez stated that the graphics are not acceptable for a modern game with textures not standing up to close scrutiny, and a clipping effect when driving through fields. There has been criticism that the vehicles in the game pop-up, which is emphasised by the speed at which the player is travelling.
