Customer Reviews
Unrealistic, but who cares?
This was the first game I bought for my Wii, and having played Gran Turismo on a PS2 the physics suprised me a little. It has awful graphics, as I am sure I am the millionth person to point out, and much drifting. This makes the game is a fun playing experiance, as long as you don't expect a proper driving game.
If the music bothers you (it seems unobtrusive to me) I have a perfect solution - a radio. Or just turn the sound down and then you won't annoy your family.
GT Pro Series
GT Pro Series is a great game to play and is really realistic, you could play for hours and you wouldn't get bored. Also you get a free stering wheel, so you get more for your money.The graphics are very good and it feels like you are really driving. Overall GT Pro Series is a super game and you should go out and buy it right now.
Very poor buy even with the free plastic steering wheel.
Ok, it's been said to death but the graphics on this game are horrible, poor even for a Gamecube game. The sound is also pretty nasty too. Despite all this I gave the game a good go, both single and multiplayer but never really had any fun playing it. The controls aren't terrible but everyone who played my copy commented that they never really felt in control as you can't really "feel" the car. When i got Excite Truck this lack of feel on GT Pro series became all the more apparent.
I think racing games really require you to become immersed in the experience and with the graphics and sound grating your eyes and ears and a real absence of feel, GT Pro Series just doesn't do that.
I am sure there will be better "real car" racing games for the Wii in time but I think it will probably be the "wacky" racing games such as Excite Truck and the inevitable Mario Kart release that will work best.
Unless you are a real racing game fan I would avoid this title and even then, don't expect too much.
