Wreckless: The Yakuza Mission
Overall: Wreckless feels like an out of control joyride through the streets of Hong Kong in a high performance rental car. You not only don't care about the damage you're dishing out, you're looking forward to the next big object you can take down just so you can see what it will look like. The outstanding graphics and lighting are the kind of features we've been waiting for on the Xbox. It looks like something fresh, something that could only be done on the most powerful machine around even though it follows the old school videogame formula of low brow fun and more low brow fun.
Even with its shortcomings, lack of features and depth, Wreckless is the first in a string of upcoming Xbox titles we're about to see that delivers well developed solid gameplay to go with those outstanding Microsoft powered graphics. Xbox owners have had to suffer through a lot of old PS2 remixes and ports up to this point, but Wreckless is one of those games that will make you glad you have the system.
Gameplay: You can smash a car can't you? Easy enough to play with closed eyes, but you'll miss the great visuals and you'll never complete the challenging missions.
Graphics: The lighting is simply excellent. And you haven't seen reflections like these in your car since it was new.
Audio: Nice voice samples and special effects. Music fits but it's cheesy nonetheless. Why can't we use our own soundtracks?
Overall Score: 9.0 / 10
