WIPEOUT! Wonder if this is same as NTSC's team elimination games, never tried that one tho.

I'm sorry I used my bandwidth on this, and fully scares me away from trying ubisoft's 'team elimination games' without someone else reviewing it first. Graphics are very low quality cell shading, even very bad for the Wii. It's funny that Richard Hammond (of Top Gear) is the host of the show. Controls are boring... main movement with nunchuck, shake/swim/climb motions for most controls, and mini game style combos (eg, Z, C, A, A) for some events. I'm sad to say I made it across the big balls 2 times with no fault, it's the combo mini game to pass that. There's 4 episodes making total of 16 events (4 per show), and you can make your own show (event order). You play them just like it'd happen on TV, except show starts with 6 players, and down to 4 for sweeper, 3 for dizzy dummy, 2 for final wipeout). May be fun one time with friends who are fans of the show, but best to avoid at all. 3/10

My god! Someone has actually given a decent review of a game within the first few posts...thats amazing, a first possibly.

Thanks to DjFIL this can be consigned to the "play once and file away" category along side all those other crappy TV show tie-ins.

If this was like the obstacle course mini game of wii fit plus, using the board, it would be amazing lol!
