Suggestions for "real" racing games on the Wii?

by rayray8822 Feb 16, 2009 4:40AM PST

I'm looking for a good motion-control racing game to play with the wife after the babies are in to bed. I rented Mario Kart Wii (fond memories of MK64 in college), but she's not into "cartoon" racing; she wants real cars . . . Mustangs and Lamborghinis and Vipers.

Anyone know of some good Wii racing games for 2 players? Not planning on doing much solo playing; just offline 2-player.

p.s. We have a PS3 too, but only one SIXAXIS controller. We own two Wiimotes (and two nunchuks), so I'm leaning toward games for the Wii.

Get GT5 Prologue...

by DKhoji Feb 16, 2009 6:22AM PST

If you have a PS3 and want real cars then get Gran Tourismo 5 Prologue. It's cheap (you can even download it from the PS store and as real as it gets in terms of driving physics, although not in terms of damage put I could personally care less about that. Lots of people like GRiD as well, I wasn't so crazy about it. All the racing on the Wii I've seen is really more arcade than realistic.
