Wheelman
Year of release: 2009
Preferred format: Xbox 360
For those eager action game fans, this Hollywood-influenced title gives you the chance to jump into the driver's seat of an explosive action adventure. Starring Vin Diesel as Milo Burik, players get to drive around Barcelona completing missions, stealing cars and dodging bullets, all to some brilliant Spanish-inspired, cinematic chase music.
It may be argued that Wheelman is a rip-off version of 'GTA', and it is not without downfalls, but what works in its favour - and makes it a worthy radical racer - is tackling the exceptionally fun special moves that reflect the action movies which inspired the title.
