I’ve tryed Dirt, but it’s not realistic at all. That Sega Rally game looks kinda cool, I don’t know.

Any suggestions?

Despite the fact that new Wii games are coming out all the time, there are still a lot of consistent favorites out there that never seem to age. Below you’ll find a list of games that still captivate the attention of Wii gamers, even though some of them have been out for a while now.
Super Smash Bros. Brawl – This is a game I have heard a lot about, even though it came out back in March, it’s still going strong. In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, you can duke it out with all the classic Nintendo characters, on a better game system than ever. This is the third installment in the Super Smash Bros. series that was started back in 1999.
Mario Cart Wii – Majority says: It’s a winner! Mario Cart for Wii came out in April, and continues to draw a crowd even now. According to reviews it has a huge number of courses, awesome motorcycles as an alternative option to go-carts, and it’s an easy game for a beginner to pick up and play.
Super Mario Galaxy – Yet another Mario ‘n’ friends game that has everyone stoked and ready to play long hours into the night. This game came out back in November of 2007, and still people are loving it. According to GameSpot ratings, Super Mario Galaxy has an overall rating of almost a full ten. It comes in fourth place in a list of almost a thousand different games they have in their database.
Okami – Very high on the list of “have to have it” games this year. Some gamers have said in the past that this game primarily exudes a “sense of both grace, and visual poetry”. It has a general rating of nine out of ten points within several different gaming sites. Some of the combat is a little too easy though, according to some, although this could be beneficial to beginners, and the younger gamers.
No More Heros – Help Travis Touchdown finally be on top of the vicious assassin’s league. It has received a lot of mixed reviews since it came out in January ‘08, but the general consensus is positive. A good portion of people aren’t into the anime style combat and design. But the majority seems to have been waiting for a game rated M from Wii. Either way, it’s definitely one of the top selling Wii games.
