There are plenty of racing games available to play on the big three home video game consoles, but there are none any more fun than Excite Truck for the Nintendo Wii. You can have all the racing sims you want, give me an arcade racer any day.
Even though the Wii is not quite as powerful, Excite Truck is an arcade type racer game similar to but not quite as viewable as the Playstation 3 game Burnout Paradise. Without the extra power, the Wii developers still succeeded in bring the sense of speed necessary for this game. There are different challenges depending on what level you’re on, and split screen mode gaming with a friend is the best time.
The remote is used like a steering wheel, you turn it sideways and go back and forth. This puts the motion controls into play, these are crucial to the game, they’re not just fluff.
Part of what makes this game outstanding is that the motion controls are excellent, better than some games released after this release. If it weren’t for the controls it might not be as much fun because you would go through all of the tracks too quickly.
Playing with a friend brings out the best of this game. You work on learning the motion controls so you can earn stars and open new tracks. Driving dangerously rewards you by unlocking more areas, so this game is very fun as there are lots of options.
