Wreckless: The Yakuza Missions is a video game on GameCube, Xbox and PlayStation 2. This game is a driving game which the player completes missions in downtown Hong Kong.
The game's then-groundbreaking graphics for the Xbox made it successful for that console. However, the GameCube and PlayStation 2 versions suffered from performance issues (as it had been designed with the Xbox in mind) and did not sell well.
