GT Pro Series (Review)

Jan 19, 2007

One of the first racers on the Wii sets a particularly low standard that every future Wii-racer has to beat. The poorly cel-shaded graphics engine may have been passable on current-gen machines, but this is next-gen – as powerful as the Wii's competitors are, but still.

On top of this the handling is awful, with cars ...

Gamestop selling some Wii games early (News)

Nov 16, 2006

For those of you who just can't wait until Sunday to get your hands on something Wii-branded, some North American Gamestop stores are already selling select Wii games that were shipped to stores on Tuesday. Our local store was selling Super Moneky Ball: Banana Blitz, Trauma Center: Second Opinion, Call of Duty 3, and GT Pro Series (other titles were in stock but explicitly embargoed until launch day). Of course, supplies and availability may vary at your local store, so call ahead first if you're planning on jumping the gun.

GT Pro Series - hands-on (Preview)

Oct 10, 2006

If there's one thing Wii's launch games have covered, it's gotta be variance. Pretty much any genre you can think of is represented in some way, even the gear-headed, customize-your-ride racer. GT Pro Series throws more than 80 licensed cars your way, each with tweakable options that you've seen in plenty of games up to this point. So what's the angle with this one? Well, a free steering wheel is a pretty cool bonus. GT ships with a tiny plastic wheel that comfortably nestles the Wii remote ...

One such example: the steering wheel peripheral that Ubisoft is producing for use with its upcoming Wii driving games Monster 4x4 World Circuit and GT Pro Series.

But the Wheel for Wii add-on, which comes free with the purchase of either ...
