"New model. Original Parts.
That's the tag line for Vin Diesel's sequel film Fast & Furious, currently on film screens at the same time as his driving video game Wheelman has been released. And, strangely enough, the tag line applies to the game as much as the film.
You see Vin Diesel's Wheelman may be a new game from his very own studio Tigon, but it uses parts from original best sellers of the various driving genres like Burnout, Driver, and the GTAs. The question is if Wheelman has got good tread to compete with big hitters GTAIV and Saint's Row, or does it run on crappy bald tires (spelt "tyres" here in Oz)?"
From Xfire: "Video game enthusiast and Hollywood superstar, Vin Diesel, has taken his talents to video games numerous times. We've decided to rank all of his games from the worst to the best."
“Ranking every game with Vin Diesel from terrible to bad”
Fixed the title for you.
Obviously too young or ill-informed to pass judgement. Honestly, Orchard. You just mugged yourself off. Starbreeze Studios' The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay is a very well-known classic.
Butcher Bay was great. From the prolog, fist fighting, knife fights and story. The immersion of the whole package really uped the criteria of what a cutting edge game was back then. I would like another adventure with Riddick, but it would have to be triple A status to live up to Butcher Bay.
MenStuff: "OK, it’s hard to actually recommend many celebrity-endorsed games. They don’t exactly live up to the triple-A standard as some of the big blockbuster movies the actors star in, but there are a few that made for a fun adventure and deserve a shout-out."
In this episode of InRetroSpect RAW, Dan, Pete & Kris argue over which games demand a sequel. Hear Pete confuse us with Prince of Persia timelines, Kris drops the ball with an unprecedented late swap and find out which game makes Dan threaten to leave if it isn’t included.
Remember everyone, Sega thought it was a better idea to invest in Aliens: Colonial Marines than Shenmue 3.
I never played the Shenmue games, but I've always wanted another Valkeria Chronicles on a main console. So I'd be happy to lend you all my pitchfork when you rise up against Sega.
Nobody can compete really with GTA IV but thank God this game isn't in the US like the rest of them!
Too bad the plot and dialogue sucks, but driving around and crashing is all good fun.
Vin Diesel is the biggest badass the world has ever seen. Gotta check this game out!
wow big difference in score compared to some other reviews... maybe i'll have to check this out..
GAmes need to be looked at on their own merits, if they have them, not running the game up against another 'style' of game which it is not meant to be in competition with anyhow.
I admire reviewers who simply play the game - for the game . . .Sure, games will not be the 'same' as others . . that's a given . . if you took a game on the entertainment it gives you, the simple enjoyment or not as the case maybe . . then that is how reviews should be delivered.
Not my type of game...
