  1. Packed with fun car chases but let down by an uncomfortable control system.

    It's a pity, as aside from the curious controls and erratic difficulty curve, there's much to like here.

    The choice to start from scratch was a winning one. The wii version of Tanner's adventures isn't a mere porting, but an entirely new experience. A shame though for the overall unpolished gameplay.

    At the end of the day, there just isn't anything special about this release. [Sept 2011, p.74]

  1. This has to be the biggest lie and letdown ever. I have never seen my money get pulled out of my pocket. I feel ashamed that this game (Wii port) even exists. I'd advise to stay away from this one. Expand
