Wipeout for Wii Reviews by Gamers

We are new to the wii, and to modern games-so we wanted to get games we are familiar with the concept. Our kids love the show, so we tried out the game. All in all we really enjoyed it, although its pretty much a game you can play sitting down. I thought it might be more like the wii sports games where you are more a part of the action. The players are funny charachters, and you can choose the size of player you would like (the heavier players seem to be slower, but dont go down as easy, the lighter players are quicker but dont bounce on the balls as sturdy). Its funny to see the slow motion replays of the players wiping out-and while you are watching the other players turn you can aim and shoot balls out of a cannon at them, to knock them down and make them lose time on the clock. We honestly never made it past the "Easy" level, as it gets pretty frustrating at times. the players can be hard to control, its hard to judge the distance of some jumps. I guess thats just a part of mastering the game. the wipeout zone is pretty fun, and i recommend it if you like the show.
