Shame about the GFX

By a customer from Midlands , 22 Nov 2010

[Highly rated reviewer]

This game reminds me of Midtown Madness the 90's PC game in gameplay and graphics. I know the Wii hasn't got the best graphics but I'm very sure it can be better than they are in this game! It's just a case of lazy developers again.The gameplay isn't that bad but the graphics are just laughable and awful. I went and got the Xbox 360 version and it looks amazing compared to this. It's another case of if you want a serious game then make sure you get it on Xbox 360 or PS3. It's a real shame!

Could be good.....

By wheeldon (1 review) from Spalding , 26 Jan 2011

Perhaps I was expecting too much from this title having played it before on the xbox 360. The problem is not the gameplay, which is exciting and good fun when combined with a Wii steering wheel, but the graphics, which look like they were lifted from a sega megadrive.

Overall I would say try this game as you might like it, but do it on another platform.

Andy.
