Excite Truck for Nintendo Wii

Pros: A great, off road arcade racer with an emphasis on wacky stunts

Cons: Uninspired two player mode; can't design tracks?

The Bottom Line: It's got a couple of flaws, but this is a must buy for Wii owners who love arcade racers. Great game!

Review: At long last, Nintendo has released a spiritual successor to the classic Excitebike for the old NES. The only things Excite Truck shares with its distant cousin is that it's a racing game, it takes place on primarily dirt tracks, using too ...

Pros: Frantic fun! Blazing speed! Well balanced and good control. Nice graphics. Use own music.

Cons: No four player mode.

The Bottom Line: If you like fast paced, arcade styled games which will instantly give you loads of fun, get Excite Truck!

Review: When it comes to racing-games I have always liked the arcade-ish style better. Advanced simulations is not really my thing. Thus, Excite Truck seemed like the perfect game for me. And it only took me a few seconds of gameplay to realize I was correct. ...

Pros: Super intuitive controls, a lot of different races at varying difficulties.

Cons: The turbo system in general got annoying and that was about it.

The Bottom Line: My final recommendation is that when you purchase the Nintendo Wii system, the first thing you do is buy Excite truck with it, you will not regret it.

Review: I generally hate racing games, cannot stand using joysticks and D-pads and what have you, but the ability to hold the controller and use it just like I would the steering wheel on my car made the entire game experience even better. The controls are ...

Pros: Fun

Cons: Conrolls take getting used to - try the tutorial first.

The Bottom Line: A fun way to play a racing game.

Review: One of the first games we purchased for the Wii was Excite Truck, mainly because both my youngest son and I love racing games and he thought it looked neat. Excite Truck is a good showcase for the new Wii Remote and makes ...

Pros: I love the new controls and the game play is addictive as well.

Cons: Split screen multi-player sucks!

The Bottom Line: If you want something different in your racing games then try this out.

Review: Although the name sounds pretty bad (Excite Truck is a pretty good name from a 5th grader at least), this semi-sequel to the NES classic Excitebike hit is still one damn fine racing title that introduced us Wii owners to a whole new way to play ...

Pros: Nice graphics, good demonstration of the Wii controller's capabilities.

Cons: Short game, lack of multiplayer options.

The Bottom Line: If you have a Wii and need another game, you can't go wrong with Excite Truck.

Review: I got my brand new Wii at midnight, launch day, and of course it came time to pick out some games to play on the new system. I purchased Red Steel (which I will review) and Excite Truck, despite people telling me that The Legend of Zelda: Twilight ...

Pros: High-speed, big-air stunt-racing action over well-rendered bump courses.

Cons: Weak two-player mode.

The Bottom Line: This is a very fun and exciting game that the entire family can enjoy. Its creative, high-speed, physics-bending style will peak your interest for at least 2 months.

Review: I'm not quite sure what it is about Nintendo. Their game systems always seem to lag in horsepower by a generation or so behind the competition, but their skilled game designers are outlandishly adept at squeezing every last morsel of performance from ...

Pros: Easy to use controller makes driving fun. Free racing with no story mode.

Cons: Truck over heats and you have to wait. Star system draw backs.

The Bottom Line: Great for the family. Ages 4 to 80. Driving is easy with wii controller.

Review: We got the Wii for Christmas this year and Excite truck was one of the first games we chose. Excite truck is a simulated driving interaction game in an off-road-free-for all that involves trucks rocketing through ever changing terrain. The racing done ...

Pros: Controls are Fun, Lots of unlockables, Avalible at launch

Cons: Lack of online mode, controls take some time to get used to

The Bottom Line: If you like getting boosts, flying a few thousand feet in the air, and smashing into other trucks Excite Truck is the game for you.

Review: This morning brought a sigh of relief when four hundred thousand gamers were finally able to bring home the all-new Nintendo Wii video game console. Wii parted a new era of video gaming and separated itself from Sony and Microsoft with a ...

Pros: The game is a ton of fun.

Cons: Extremely short. Levels could have used some more diversity.

The Bottom Line: Go out and rent the dang game.

Review: Excite Truck is the sequel to the 1985 classic Excitebike. Yeah, you’re right, it is a lot different than the NES game. Heck, it’s like saying that Madden NFL 2007 is the sequel to a little game that came out the same month and year as ...
