If anyone here has the game Wreckless: The Yakuza Missions, take a look on page 12 of the manual of the game in the sectiont hat says Environment. It says...
You have a licence to be RECKLESS and also a job to do!

as you see the word wreckless is spelled incorrectly.
i noticed this about a minute ago while looking through the manual. i found it funny.

It's just a fun game to drive around in, but there's nothing great about it.

Uh, reckless is spelled correctly. That would be like saying that on page XYZ of Mortal Kombat, it reads "blah blah blah combat blah blah" And as you can see the word kombat is misspelled.
The title is an intentional misspelling to highlight the "extreme" nature of the title and to emphasize the fact that you must drive carelessly while not colliding into anything.
But I digress.

toastman is correct. Wreckless is not a word. People tend to think it is, because Wreck is a word, but Reckless is the actual spelling

Activistion has produced a lot of crap games. Like that Pitfall The mayan Adventure. Did they make Super Pitfall? Course Regular Pitfall was good stuff.

well then its my mistake, sorry about that. they should have just called the game reckless then.

i thought it was a spelling error becuase the game is called wreckless, and its not a word i use all the time, so i thought the one in the book was a mistake

many things don't spell things right....examples

Rite aid (WHAT it really means) ceremonial act aid

... i could go on..but why bother.. people should spell right, it messes up the youth of the nations spelling skills
