Indianapolis 500 Legends (Wii, 2007)

I am addicted to racing games. I have all three major platforms and I only buy racing games. Gran Turismo for Playstation is the standard, the best. But this one is pretty good too. They have taken the best 20 years of the Indy 500 (the decades of the 60's and 70's) and analyzed the top three finishers every year. You then play the game from that driver's perspective, with the same handicaps the real cars had in that particular year (Parnelli Jones no brakes, Roger Ward bad handling car, etc.). It's fascinating. I was a real Indy 500 fan before the IRL split and this game covers every angle as realistically and historically accurately as possibly. I've got over 50 hours in it so far and it keeps getting better and better. If you're looking for just another game, you probably won't like this. You'll find it too difficult and boring. But if you're into open wheel racing, especially the vintage stuff, this is the most fun you can have with your clothes on!

Game is OK but screen image is very dark. Action is very good. Steering wheel is a must in order to be able to play. Not as good as other Wii games.

I was looking for this game at a resonable price and got it at what I wanted to pay. It got to me fast and it was in very good condition.

my kids wanted a racing game to play and this was great for them to start with. they are learning how to use the remote with this so i can buy a more advanced game later

It's like a late 80's early 90's game redone, but there is very few wii car games out there and it does say INDY 500, You won't stay up late playing it

Indy Legends allows you to drive selected cars from the 60's on the Indianapolis Speedway. The graphics are fun, but there is a definite learning curve that may not make this the right game for many children. The cars all handle differently, just like the ones they are portraying. I find it enjoyable, but it probably is not for everyone.

I don’t know if I like the game or not it has not arrived yet after 30+ days and the seller does not replay to my e-mails.
My next e-mails are going to eBay and then one to Pay Pal.
I bought the game because the price was good.
The price might have been too good for the seller to send the game to me.

i love it!!!! its a cool game just got it but really enjoy playing it thanks.
would buy for seller agian fast shipping and just like new, just like he said it would be thanks agian

I won the bid right around Christmas time and did not have good communication from the seller. When I was contacted by seller I was told the package was sent. Needless to say, I never received the WII game I had won and I had to go through a claim dispute through paypal to get my refund. Finally I got my money back in February. I do not recommend anyone to do business with this seller.

Growing up in the 60's and 70's and a big fan of the Indy500, this game brings back lots of memories of some of the racers and my favorite racers...it is so neat to be behind the wheel of Jimmy Clark's Lotus or Joe Leonard's Turbine car. The game action is very good and lots of fun. This game is a must buy for an "old" Indy fan who likes racing games.

I was pleasantly suprised my boys (husband and son) loved this game. They really like racing games and some of the games I have bought are terrible. I didn't play myself, but they said the cars steering was good and responded well... they even were able to use the wii wheel and that worked great. They only made it throught I "year" (the game is set up by years - with the racing legends for each year), but so far so good. There is also some race history thrown in there too. Good game... boys liked it. Better than the average racing game for the wii.

This is just a fun, it takes you through a decade of racing at the Indianapolis speedway (1961-1971). As you progress through the years the car progress with you and the racing becomes a little more challenging. You can play this game in single player mode, or you can challenge a friend to a race in dual player mode. This game is not fancy and complex, it is simply fun.

Being a fan of the 1967 STP turbine, I was anxious to see how it played out in this game. I spent about 5 straight days of playing, a couple of hours a day to get to that point. The engine sounds and the graffics are great. The whooooosh of the turbine was pretty cool once I got to that point. The Novi is also impressive. I'm a 52 year old kid who would recommend this game to anyone who grew up with the last of the roadsters in the 60s. Until something better comes along, this is as close as it gets to being there during those great years.

This is a great game for any kid, boy or girl. And also great for adults. My niece loves it and plays it more than any of her "girly" games. Invest in this game, I think you'll love it too.
