No Colin McRae for Wii? Not even a Race Driver game for Wii even though the DS got one this year?

An incredible bad 2008 lineup from Codemasters.

Erm not trying to be funny but I don't think we're ever gonna see a Colin McRae game again, I don't think it'd be the most respectful thing ever to do. As for TOCA... I know there's a new engine and Race Driver game in development (GRID I think the game is called) which is looking veeeeeeeeeeeeerrrry purdy. Whether it's slated for 08 release though I couldn't say.

These guys are missing the Wii boat even more then Konami, forshame Codemasters.

Hopefully they've got an ace up their sleeve... or three, but I doubt it.

Turning Point sounds like the most awesome game in awhile (not kidding).

Till I read that it's going to be an FPS game. Then it became a "meh"fest.

Dangit, why does every great storytelling concept have to be an FPS game?

Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
