The official "Excite Truck" thread! Brrrroommm!!! Weeee! *jumps insanely high*

[블라스]

I remember some people saying this looked gay, well you know what?
THEY LOOK GAY!
This game is going to be OFF THE HOOK!
This is how I like my racers....fun, crazy and completely over the top.
Plus, this preview says the controlling of the trucks feels awesome.
Buy it!
I know I will.

Features:

* Body English: Remember tilting your arms while playing Excitebike to try to make your character land a huge jump? That experience is finally a reality with Excite Truck.

* Controller as a Steering Wheel: Players hold the Wii Remote like an NES controller to control the truck. The 2 button is the accelerator, the 1 button is the brake, the + Control Pad is the turbo... but that's just the beginning. Tilt the Wii Remote controller right and left like a steering wheel to steer. Once the truck goes airborne, tilt the Wii Remote controller every which way to line up the wheels for landing boosts.

* Dynamic Terrain: Pick up items on the courses to make the terrain deform in real time, turning innocent bumps into massive launch pads that affect not only the player's route, but that of his or her rivals. Players jump and bump their way to the highest score and highest finish.

Definatly picking this one up.

 

[TheGrayGhost]

Yeah, I've really taken a liking to this game. But I'm not sure what I am going to do with it once Mario Kart Wii comes out.

 

[Sandman138]

Uhhhhh... play both.

 

[War Lord]

The graphics don't look much better than what was on the Super Nintendo.

 

[Axid]

Looks so fun, it's like Burnout with big trucks and air

 

[블라스]

This game clearly looks better than every Ps3 game so far

 

[Mentok]

YES, YOU CAN BE LIKE THIS LITTLE GIRL!

I want to do naughty things to her

Excite Truck > Need for Speed: Crazy Driftin', Gran Turismo, Forza, every other car game.

 

[TheCardPlayer]

This game looks freaking ace. A must buy for sure.

I'd maybe agree with you, if Mario Kart didn't exist...

 

[batman44]

I'll be picking this game up for sure. I wonder if they'll ever bring back Excite Bike?

 

[블라스]

Mario Kart is above regular car games!

 

[Not Jake]

Mario Kart isn't cars, if it was, it'd be called Mario Cars

 

[jaydawg]

I'll probably wait for this game to be $20. I'm not big on racing games, although I love the controller scheme here.

 

[Panophobia]

I want to do naughty things to her

Me too.

Picking this game up at launch if I have enough funds. Only need $100 more.

 

[Axid]

She's got some pretty ****ing hairy arms

She's got some pretty ****ing hairy arms

Not as hairy as Robin Williams.

The man is an ape.

 

[Future Prez]

I'll make this one of my rentals. On my list first, though, is Red Steel.

....uh, put your glasses on.

I played an ExciteTruck demo, and it's insanely fun (and insanely difficult to get used to!). You can get some pretty ridiculous air time from the hills. I'd say it's a "must get", but I'm going to put it off since the price of the Wii jumped $50 because of the "free" game included.

Perhaps if I had used this....?

Didn't really jump $50, since it was never EVER announced to be $200 :meow::heart::heart:
