Monster Trux: Arenas is a video game for the Wii console. It was created by Data Design Interactive, a budget developer. The Wii Wheel is compatible with the game. On PlayStation 2 a Special Edition was released.[1] The game uses the same coverart as Monster Trux Extreme (Arena Edition) released on March 25 2005 on the PlayStation 2 made also by Data Design and published by Phoenix Games.[2]

Use of real monster trucks

Some of the trucks in the game are based on real-life monster trucks, such as Flame (based on WCW Nitro (truck)), Wrench (based on Wrenchead.com), and Doom (based on The Outsiders). Other trucks in the game include Pro (which is not a monster truck, but a Toyota Tundra baja truck), Midnight (which has a Chevy Astro body), By-4 (which has a Toyota Land Cruiser body) Crush (which has a custom Rhino body), and Dumper (which has a Dump Truck body).

Reception

The game received overwhelmingly negative reviews.[citation needed] IGN gave it a 1.0 for bad graphics, presentation, sound and gameplay.[3]
