Worst Wii Game Ever? IGN's 1/10 for Offroad Extreme Special Edition
IGN's Matt Casamassina writes:
"In Offroad Racing! Special Edition, you drive your monster truck over primitive N64-style landscapes littered with money signs, among other things. The money signs award cash for upgrades, but we think the real motivation to maneuvering over them is to get your money back, having wasted it on the racer in the first place. The fact that this boring, clumsy, amateur racing game is labeled a special edition is baffling to me – it is especially bad, but otherwise there is nothing special about it. Even at $29.99, you're paying way too much for this rush-job experience. If you ever get the chance to rent it, don't. And if somebody buys it for you this holiday, you should close out that friendship immediately."
IGN are usually fair with reviews... I like Matt.. he seems to know what he is talking about and bases his reviews of Wii games on other Wii games rather than comparing them to 360 / ps3...
So if he says avoid it... then i will dear sir... *salutes*

God... Those graphics!
The thing is that parents will buy this for their kids as it's a cheap title. Just like all those popcorn games that have appeared. It's criminal that they should be able to get away with it!

Think thats a problem that plagues everything from games, films, music, books, art, cars to holiday destinations. someone out there must like it? or they lost so much in development they had to release something and this was it.

Noticed on their site that Mini Desktop Racing fared considerably better, scoring an impressive 1.2/10
