My nephews love this game, I purchased it for them. They loved the one I own, so I got them one of their own. It is a bit graphic though. I need to have them play when my little one is not around.
Great cheap game

Personally I enjoy this game more than the ps2 GTA's. This has a better story to it. It most likely wont be as good as gtaIV but its still a great game.
Great game, can't go wrong.

Driver wii turned out to be a great game. It was very enjoyable and a lot of fun. You definetely get into the action nicely. The controls are pretty standard = wii mote to shoot and nunchuck to steer/drive. It also features a control that lets you tilt the nunchuck for sharper turns although I havn't found this to be very useful. Overall, the game appears short. But it's really worth the ride.
This is an okay game.

This is an okay game. There is a lot of unnecessary swearing and the police helicopters are really cheasy... the propellers spin at like five miles per hour and you can destroy the helicopter with a pistol. This game is definitely a driving game, although similar to GTA.

I purchased this game back when it was on gold box deal for $15. I played if for a bit then life got in the way so I had to put it away for a couple weeks. Finally I got back into it and I really like this game.
Granted it is very similar to the GTA series but what are you going to play when you've played that series twice over. I never really looked to deep into the game before I purchased it and thought that it was just set in the 70's but then found out that you play the character in the 70's up until he is framed for a crime and then fast forward to 2006 to seek your revenge.
This is a great (adult) game and perfect for venting your frustrations after a long day at work. I agree the game is not perfect, but take it for what it is a fun game at a bargin price.
A strong 4 out of 5!
Fun

Got this game as a Today's Deal for the Wii. Didn't do any research on it and I probably should have. This is a game for mature audiances. There is quite a bit of foul language right from the time you but the disk in the machine. The game controls are very sensative. My husband and I end up crashing the car more than we do driving it. I would recommend doing your research before buying any of the games.
M Rating is accurate

Violent with the language and shooting...still, for those who like grand theft auto types of games, this is pretty fun.
The manual isn't great, though. We were in 3rd person view (which we liked) and are now stuck in first person and can't figure out how to switch...anyone know?
Not bad for the price.

I have only played this once. I am still learning the ins and outs of it, but it is pretty good. Got is for $15, so not a bad deal at all.
I see why they have this game for so cheap

Very boring game, extremely poorly made. Got sick of it after 15 minutes, havent played since. Very very repetitive. Cheap takeoff on GTA. Not even worth the $15 I paid for it.
Good game, but not great. A little too violent for younger kids.

The gamers at Gamestop have rated this game a 5 out of 10 for the Wii version. I got it for under $16 so it seems worth it. I would not have liked to pay $30 for this game, especially for the Wii console. You have to drive by tilting the Wiimote which makes the game a little less fun...so I am considering getting the wheel accessory.
This game goes through different burroughs in New York and involves cop-chases and gunshots. It's fun for a while, overall. I would not recommend it for kids (and it also has a Mature rating)- although tween boys would probably not mind the blood-shed if you let them play it!
