I didn't believe the guy when he told me I needed to give him my drivers license AND credit card.  He also told me I needed to keep the wrist band around my wrist at all times as part of regulation AND that he'd be watching me the whole time to make sure I 'complied'.  Anyway my impression of the game is that it is easy to pick up the controls and sensitivity after a couple of minutes.  The controls were simple enough, button 2 is for gas and button 1 is to brake.  The steering is handled by tilting the remote.  The game itself was nothing special.  The graphics were only slightly better than current XBOX titles if not the same.  The physics of the car allowed you to steer the car while in the air, not very realistic but fun.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[mrhappi79]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 3rd 2006 11:51AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on South Florida GameStop nabs first Wii demo kiosk]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/03/south-florida-gamespot-nabs-first-wii-demo-kiosk/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/03/south-florida-gamespot-nabs-first-wii-demo-kiosk/</guid><description><![CDATA[you mean they photoshopped a kiosk into their store?<br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[asher]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 3rd 2006 12:08PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on South Florida GameStop nabs first Wii demo kiosk]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/03/south-florida-gamespot-nabs-first-wii-demo-kiosk/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/03/south-florida-gamespot-nabs-first-wii-demo-kiosk/</guid><description><![CDATA[Photoshopped, nope.
