GamePro: Need for Speed: NITRO Review

GP:

"But warn your friends that the controls can be unnecessarily frustrating at times. My initial fears were confirmed rather quickly: swiveling the controller to turn just isn't precise and I wound up wedged against walls more often than I would have liked. It works but not as well as it should. Oh, and if you have friends who are seasoned racing game fans, expect them to roll their eyes at the ludicrousness of NITRO's gameplay -- it's the polar opposite of simulation-oriented games like Forza 3 and Gran Turismo. But then again, they're not the game's target audience, so they can go tighten a lug nut while the rest of us hoot, holler and high-five during the entertaining co-op shenanigans.

PROS: Breakneck speeds in varied (and always-frantic) co-op/competitive races.
CONS: Imprecise controls, muddy visuals and a shallow single-player experience." (Need for Speed: Nitro, Wii) 4/5
