I picked The Wheelman up recently in Game’s XBox 360 clearance sale – all of their last gen stock was (and still is, in some locations) being sold off for 99p or less. ![]() It sank without trace from what I recall at the time. ![]() The game itself finally limped over the finish line to – at best – mixed reviews in 2009. ![]() I don’t recall there being any hype for the game in the following years.Īn accompanying film was announced, intended to be a sequel to the game. The trailer used what appeared to be in-engine graphics slightly buffed up to look more cinematic, but there was no getting around the fact that the model representing the star of the game, Vin Diesel, looked comically awful in the scenes shown. The Wheelman had a bit of a tortured development I remember seeing the announcement trailer, way back in 2006 if I recall that correctly, and it looked less than impressive even then. So – shall we get started with today’s game then? Not quite reviews, because I won’t have played enough of the games I look at to give them a fair assessment, but more than just first impressions or a preview. ![]() So here I am with what may well be a regular feature for me – games picked up on the cheap that I’ve never tried before, with a CEX link in the price details. I’m not going to lie – despite reaching my 100 consecutive daily article goal yesterday, it’s been a bit weird to consider not writing anything at all today.
