    Mixed" Critic REVIEWS of this game are laughably bad. Any difficulty spike can be skipped or appreciated as a challenge! Others call it the best on the system but give it a 6-7, which speaks more to their attitude toward the system than this game.

Any difficulty spike can be skipped or appreciated as a challenge! Others call it the best on the system but give it a 6-7, which speaks more to their attitude toward the system than this game. ACTION: diversity of track types, modes, vehicles, and the Excitebikeriffic track editor mean this game will continue to entertain for a long time. CONTROLS: Dpad and Wii Wheel both work well. Sometimes the controls feel a little tight but with ever increasing difficulty of tacks this becomes a welcome problem. EXCITEBIKERIFFIC: Ignoring for a moment the Wiiware remake, playing Trackmania reminds me of the original NES Excitebike more than any other game I can think of. Quick and deceptively simple tracks along with the editor are nostalgia gold. The music is almost as catchy too… Expand

    I grew up with this game and all I can say is, this game desperately needs more attention. Sure some of the tracks can be difficult, but I like a good challenge, and I used to spend hours on the track editor making my own custom tracks. Plus the soundtrack is killer.

    A fun, different racing game. The gameplay is fast and addicting and there's a lot to do. It does get frustratingly difficult, and I wish it looked better, but it's still a game that racing fans should check out.

    This huge, time trial-based driving game is let down by budget production values and frustrating difficulty spikes.

    If you are looking for a "different" racing game, you will definitely find it with Trackmania.
