The clever folk over at Nintendo work hard to satisfy the insatiable appetite for wii driving games - Formula 1 Motor Racing, Rally Driving and even Mario (git) has a comedy cart to wizz around in.
Now the Wii offers an Off Road game - “Land Rover Ford Off Road” is its full name - that claims to fulfil your 4×4 desires whilst staying in the comfort of your home. The game appears to be in close association with Land Rover - the king of Off Roaders and marketing ploy that actually works.
Choose from any of the Land Rover models - Defender, Range Rover, Disco and our favourite the all new Freelander.
You can take a gas guzzling poncey Freelander out and put it through its paces - hill climbs, bomb drop drops, deep water, sheep - nothing phases it.
The game has a cheat “trick” - at the end of each stage you are given the chance to hose the Freelander down ready for the next stage - just as they do at the Land Rover Experience Centres
We didn’t like the huge blue Ford logo that appears throughout - surely the classic discrete Green Land Rover badge would be more appropriate?
You can find the Land Rover Ford off Road along with a massive selection of wii games online.
This is just a quick review of the game - for a thorough insight into what the game offers check out this review on Den of Geek
Treat yourself to an off road experience and enjoy!
