- cblalock, on 10/12/2007, -8/+169AMAZING CARS!! MADE ENTIRELY IN MS PAINT!!
- roosterjm2k2, on 10/12/2007, -17/+109OR...you could do a little research...
Its cell-shaded...that was their intent. Screenshots never do cellshading justice, even though i generally never like the end results either...
from IGN
"IGN Wii: The game employs a cel-shaded style. Any particular reason for the look?
Tats: With so many racing games in the market, we wanted a title that would stand out from the crowd and give a different experience. There have been some cel-shaded racing games in the past, but not as well-done or full-featured as GT PS. "

Why do so many people not realize the existance of steps 1 & 2? - AkatsukiNoTobi, on 10/12/2007, -8/+92So far two games unfortunately look like ***** for the Wii. Far Cry and this game.
At least Twilight Princess will be worth the $250 that I will be forking over for a Wii. - icematrix, on 10/12/2007, -12/+89I am getting a Wii at launch, and yes, I agree, this game is as ugly as they get. Excitetruck is great though.
- AbsintheMinded, on 10/12/2007, -3/+79Looks like they tried to pull off cel-shaded graphics but failed miserably.
- dysonadams, on 10/12/2007, -11/+72"Who cares about the graphics? It's about the GAMEPLAY!" ???
Thats like saying she's got a nice personality...
No, It's like saying she's good in bed. - p0wl, on 10/12/2007, -13/+68I think I just threw up a little.
- protossss, on 10/12/2007, -9/+52That looks worse than Gran Turismo 2 on PSone (still play that!)
- aywwts4, on 10/12/2007, -6/+40As a wii fanboy these games should be brought out and ridiculed as loudly as possibly by everyone, Games like these are lazy and make the entire system look bad, unfairly.
Just as we should make fun of the games that are nothing more than tech demos and the product of lazy third party development (Like the DS started with).
Good games on a new platform only come through a year of ridicule and harsh reviews.
For example, 3D games don't have camera issues up the wazoo anymore, because in the n64/ps era we groaned Very loudly. - bluephoenix, on 10/12/2007, -10/+34this is cel shaded, probably why it looks bad in these shots
- MalaysianMafia, on 10/12/2007, -2/+27why not have both?
- digitalgopher, on 10/12/2007, -5/+26Wow. that almost looks like the EVGA game graphics on my 256 color monitor from way back in the day.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+24Well, its not the Wii's fault, its Ubisofts for allowing such a piece of ***** to see the light of day.
Honestly what is this, Virtua Racer? - DrakeGTA, on 10/12/2007, -1/+21Ubisoft make the worst games for Nintendo, but least it's better then King Kong for the DS also published by Ubisoft... Look at this! http://ds.ign.com/articles/673/673380p2.html
- jayfarer, on 10/12/2007, -1/+20It's poor cel-shading.
Plus, everything uses as few polygons as possible. The roads, the sky, etc. Just completely flat. - KathyAlbrecht, on 10/12/2007, -3/+20This is the wii game that comes packaged with the stupid plastic wheel you stick your wii-mote in btw
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+19Looks like a SNES game you'd buy off the virtual console...
- taybay, on 10/12/2007, -1/+17I read that Zelda is huge, actually. So you'll tear through it, but not as quickly as you might think. XD
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -4/+19EVGA?
EGA = Enhanced Graphics Adapter - 16 colors
VGA = Video Graphics Array - 16 colors
EVGA = ???
SVGA = Super Video Graphics Array - 256 colors
do you mean SVGA? - interiot, on 10/12/2007, -3/+16That's what I was thinking... it looks as bad or worse as PS1 games. It's almost like they initially developed the models for the DS and ported it over or something.
- theman8631, on 10/12/2007, -5/+18thanks for that point. It was a great point you made, I am glad your familiar enough with technical jargon such as "Cell Shader" to inform us what is wrong with this game. They should hire you to fix the game.
- nebunezzar, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12Exactly what they did, not to mention this was a gamecube game that was never released in America with Wii controls added later.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -9/+20So has anyone actually seen this game in motion? This is a port of the Gamecube version, and I've played that and it really doesn't look that bad in motion.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+14There's no way it can be another ET...
ET... is just in a class all by itself.
Satan keeps a special position in hell for the makers of ET... - Rodalli, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11That's as ugly as sin for a title in this generation. I really hope they're not asking $50.00 for that. In my opinion, gameplay > graphics, but this is just silly. It's like they put no effort into it.
- MasterFunk, on 10/12/2007, -2/+13I have played this game thanks to a couple of Gamestop rebels who stuck the game into their wii demo unit, and I can tell you that this game plays and looks like *****.
- matija, on 10/12/2007, -5/+15ubisoft just took down the page
guess they couldnt handle the bad press
new link http://www.ubi.com/US/Games/Info.aspx?pId=4946 - elnerdo, on 10/12/2007, -2/+12You should probably see a doctor about that.
- scratched, on 10/12/2007, -1/+11This Zelda game is supposed to be 80 hours long.
And keep in mind this is just a gamecube port that takes advantage of the Wii mote.
The graphics are the same on Gamecube. The Wii is capable of twice the gamecube. - ZenMojo, on 10/12/2007, -7/+16If this were a Sony platform game, you'd blame them in a second.
- ziki, on 10/12/2007, -3/+11ET?
- digitalgopher, on 10/12/2007, -4/+12@ vandread - oops. I meant EGA. thx. it's been a while.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7@ vandread
EVGA = Extended Video Grahics Array = non-interlaced 1024x768/70hz - teamparadox, on 10/12/2007, -3/+11"OR...you could do a little research...
Its cell-shaded...that was their intent. Screenshots never do cellshading justice, even though i generally never like the end results either..."
Uhm thats a terrible excuse. Jet Set Radio for Dreamcast looked great in screen shots, Crackdown looks great in screen shots. This game looks like a low res jaggy mess, get over it, it wont be the norm. - Keropipi, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9But it only comes with one wheel meaning if you plan on having friends over to play you'll have to buy additional wheels ftl.
- Phocion55, on 10/12/2007, -5/+13Hell, at least parts of the car don't randomly disappear......
http://www.gamebrink.com/forums/showthread.php?p=28670#post28670 - pavetheforest, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8i think they spent all their money on manufacturing the steering wheel and hired ***** game designers
- jstone, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Graphics are important! I actually want to be able to play a game for a few hours without it making my eyes bleed.
- protogenxl, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6But let us all Remember the worst Launch Title Of All Time
"Marky Mark: Make My Video" for the Sega CD - Microdot, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7madden on the wii looks ROUGH.
but again... wii fans dont care about graphics, remember? - melkore, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7The also made one of the best: Beyond Good & Evil
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7Alright we know it looks like *****, but how does it sound?
http://media.wii.ign.com/media/846/846379/vid_1713784.html
Just close your eyes and listen to that.
My God, someone kill me. - jmzook, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5I would expect Wii games to look at least as good as GC games, but this one looks ten years old.
- Julz, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6OMG! this game looks like it belongs on a PSone
- Anrkist, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6It's so true.. I got Mad Max on the NES for that very reason!
- WrathofTyreal, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Gameplay > Graphics......only untill a game like this comes out and makes me want to gouge my eyes out with a rusty spork.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7@MacHarborGuy
Dude you missed some of the best stuff in the game then. Knights of the Round, Golden Chocobos, getting raped by Emerald Weapon... - NanoStuff, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Can't complain, looks better than out-run on my sega master system.
- PFS1, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5I like the inspired use of "Impact" for the HUD.
- rjfalcon, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5It'll probably sell still pretty good because of the free steering wheel that's included.
