Since theres not a huge market for a hospital game featuring only pelvis and spine injuries, the games developer, Techland, took the right approach by ignoring pesky realism. Well, at first they ignored it. Then, they made fun of it. Finally, they took it outside and curb-stomped it for a few hours. To be specific, naild allows you to ramp off a train over a helicopter through a ring of fire into a canyon. The game gives you full control over your rider as you sail through the air, while other racers crash and burn around you. It has riders on both ATVs and dirt bikes smashing into one another as they fly down the side of a mountain before dodging the blades of a wind turbine. With that sort of description, its clear the game wont deliver a story comparing to the likes of Heavy Rain or Alan Wake. However, with the right gameplay and visuals, it probably wont need one. http://naildbiter.com/MkncS
