High speed motorcross action comes to the Wii, but can the Wii-mote handle it? To find out watch the Nitrobike video review:
To quote the video review: “Racing games haven’t exactly been the Wii’s forte. Excite Truck was a good time with some interesting controls, but as the plastic steering wheel add-ons piled up so did the duds. Enter Nitrobike, and exit Nitrobike as well.
Despite all of its flaws, Nitrobike has one thing going for it: if you blowup 15 times during your career you can unlock crash test bowling. It’s not particularly fun and uses some whacked-out physics, but at least it will keep you from playing the main game. The inconsistencies amongst design and control, drab visuals and ghost town online populace all point to a bad, broken game. It’s simply not worth the effort or the 50 bucks.”
