Fun:
Some of the reviews for Off Road are not good, while I think it's good fun. You get to pick a car (a landrover or a ford) and you do time trials to earn points, which you can buy new cars or improve your garage. Then once you think your good enough, you can do a race, which if you come 1st, 2nd or 3rd in, you unlock a race to do time trials on. Also, you unlock cars, but they do get more and more expensive! I am a girl, and even though it's aimed for boys, it's great fun for anyone really! you can use a steering wheel, or your wii remote. I use the wii remote, as suprisingly, it's easier. I would buy this game if your into 4x4's or off roading!

Fun:
Very basic but solid racing game - plays like something from the era of the 1st Sega Rally game - decent graphics, solid but basic racing handling. The option to use the d-pad instead of tilting to steer (very welcome if, like me, you're not a fan of tilt-steering on the Wii).
Nothing very exciting happens, no high-speed jumps, power-ups, weapons, death-defying stunt tracks - just straighforward old-fashioned racing. It all happens at a realistic speed, so it can feel a bit tame compared to some of the insanely high-speed racers we're used to nowadays, but I quite like it. After the frantic nature of something like Mario Kart, it's quite refreshing to play a racing game where winning depends purely on good driving, cornerning, braking etc.
It can feel a bit sedate, but at budget price it's not a bad little game, and certainly better than most of the other cheap 3rd party racing games on the Wii (vastly better than anything from the Popcorn Arcade label for example).

Fun:
This is a disapointment. After the fun of the MX vs ATX I was really looking forward to this one, unfortunately it is just a constrained racetrack game with vehicles that are not really about racing.
The scenery looks lovely but you just cant drive into it. Collision damage is primitive and there is no cockpit view.
The 2 stars is purely for the scenery.
Cheap exploiting of the Land Rover brand.
Sorry

Great fun game
I bought this game for my daughter, she has had hours of fun with it just need to explain that in the real world you can't press reset on a crashed vehicle!

Ok
Ok game, not great for advanced players, I have high hopes for a multiplayer driving game. Its ok but not very exciting and graphics are a little average.

shame it is not more exciting.
I bought this game thinking it was one that would appeal to young people. However it turns out to be rather boring. Read more

Off Road off the scale
Great. A real 'bash-um and dash'. Took a punt when purchased as it was a fairly new game with few reviews. Good graphics and controls. Read more
