XBLA: New TOW: Things On Wheels Trailer Surfaces

It's been a year since we've heard any official word on TOW: Things On Wheels, but it appears that everything is fine, and the game is on track to be released soon.

As we sussed out earlier this year, Southpeak Games decided to drop publishing Things On Wheels, and as shown by the trailer is now published by Focus Home Interactive. The game looks a lot better since the last time we saw it, where the trailer couldn't hold a steady frame rate.

Now it's just a matter of whether it can stand up against the upcoming JoyRide game. Let's hope so.

Played a pretty much complete version of this a few months ago and it's awful :( Utterly charmless graphic design, dull tracks and horrendous loading times. The loading times will no doubt get fixed, but the rest is unlikely to change.

I think this game could be fun. There was a game I played on PC about 5 or 6 years ago that was a lot like this. I can't remember the name, but my kids loved the idea of racing RC cars through a museum or grocery store. So sure we will pick this up when(if) it comes out.

"Revolt" is the name you're looking for Cannon Fodder 06.
