    The game just isn't much fun. It also isn't fun to look at. [Nov 2009, p.89]

    It doesn't matter if you're a huge fan of off-road racing, the Wii version of Dirt 2 is best avoided.

    For as much potential as the Wii version had, Dirt 2 just ends up being a letdown, especially when the package boils down to being a port/crossover of the PSP offering that Sony fans are getting.

    If you have the option, check out the PS3/360 versions of the game, as it’s clear that’s where the game was meant to be played. All Wii users are getting is poor controls, bad graphics and what may be the worst audio found in any racer to date.

    Dirt 2 is as vanilla a racer as you're going to find on Wii. There are some unlockable videos and vehicle skins, but this is a very generic package that feels like it was phoned in.

    Well, it's not bad as most of racing games on the system, but it's hilariously unsatisfying experience.

    This game is simply poor. Poor presentation and overall look and feel (seems like they released in the middle of the development process),This game is simply poor. Poor presentation and overall look and feel (seems like they released in the middle of the development process), graphics in-game are average, with some huge slowdown in some tracks, and of course 4 cars only are a bit of a let down. Anyway, I found it quite funny controls-wise (with both the wiimote and the nunchuck), even if a bit on the easy side (at least the first 4 tracks). Overall, it's just average, being that you cannot find much better than this on the wii right now.… Full Review »

I mean the wii has more power than the game shows.. it like it is a lack of interest from the developers, cause you check other driving games at least have reflections, dirt has really poor graphics.. even need for speed carbon looks better, if wii has more power than a ps2 at least it should look like gran turismo, I mean just check dirt2 on ps3.. dirt2 on wii and other consoles look like if they were diferent games.… Full Review »
