A Review By Highlar in Wii » Action
Okami is a game which has already achieved a state of cult classic among many gaming circles since its appearance on the PS2. Sales of the game did not match the critical acclaim that the game received from reviewers on its first showing. Now, the game is getting a second chance at life on the Nintendo Wii, complete with "waggle". ...

If I had to compare Elebits to another, well-established game, I'd say Elebits is like Katamari Damacy. Instead of rolling a giant ball of birds and children, though, you level up a Capture Gun, and instead of trying to get a really big ball, you try to get a really strong Capture Gun. Oh well, take what you can get, I guess. Sadly, there isn't w...

The phrase "the whole is greater than the sum of it's parts" is the perfect way to describe how No More Heroes became of the must have games for the Wii. Imagine trying to tell a friend about this new game your playing and you rattle off a few tidbits about the game: The graphics aren't even last-gen caliber; lightsaber bought on the '...

In case you didn't know, Okami is a remake of the critically acclaimed PS2 game of the same name released in 2006. In the game you play a god incarnate in a classic good versus evil struggle for the land. A truly original gameplay element and one-of-a-kind graphical presentation set this game apart from any other in the action adventure genre. A...

Gunstar Heroes Co-op games provide the entertainment of multiplayer and the fun of a single player game. Gunstar Heroes is a perfect example of co-op, and for only 8 dollars, Its a steal While it is a perfect game to play on your own, it's even better with a pal. The aim of the game is to annihilate oncoming waves of baddies us...

Bonks Adventure Every company has its mascots. Nintendo has mario, Sega has sonic, Microsoft has master chief, and so on. The PC engine, or TurboGrafx, had Bonk. Nowadays, the average gamer has never heard of bonk. Was it because his game were terrible? Definitely not Bonks Adventure is cheerful, entert...

Sin and Punishment Is this on-rails shooter worth the $12 Nintendo expects you to? Why should you spend more money on an N64 game thats over 6 years old? find out Sin and Punishment was never released outside Japan, despite including english voice-acting. It was a great chance for i...

A Review By Harbinger in Wii » Action
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess is an action adventure game that sticks its roots - roots that had been planted over twenty years ago. It maintains the story structure that has been rehashed over ten times in the past two decades. While there are many innovations and improvements to the core game-play, this is a game that takes one step fo...

A Review By King3567 in Wii » Action
Of all the games arriving on consoles this year, the game I was most excited for was the third entry in Nintendo's Super Smash Bros. franchise. Something just always appealed to me about the series of all these characters coming together for the first time. With unimaginable hype, did N...

A Review By grognard66 in Wii » Action
I've seen this far too many times before. The "professional" gaming journalists leave their standards at the door in fear of backlash from the revival tent fanboys of a particular franchise (MGS, GT, Zelda, FF). At least in this case it has only taken a few months to hear them speculating aloud whether they may have over-scored this one. ...

SSBB represents the latest example of the Nintendo-generation of journalists over-rating a solid, but hardly spectacular game. The game offers good graphics and sound for a Wii game as well as solid controls. There are a plethora of levels and characters and the game is definitely targeted to revival-tent Nintendophiles with a wealth of fan-service...

Metal Slug Anthology is a pretty terrible game. It includes Metal Slugs 1 through 6. Playing any of them is frustrating and dissatisfying. It’s painfully apparent Metal Slug is an arcade game designed for arcade systems and has no place on a home console. Story The Metal Slug series has no story. Wikipedia and a bonus feature ...

I'm going to make this very simple for you: you should never, under any condition, subject yourself or those you care about to this game. For those of you that require more content upon which to base your gaming decisions, I'll offer you this: Sonic and the Secret Rings is absolutely horrendous and entirely unplayable. Below is a list of the gam...

You can call it "partaking in a bit of fan service" if you want; some would call it "pandering to the user base". But any way you slice it, the Smash Bros. series of fighting games featuring Nintendo mascots old and new is one of the most popular franchises in Nintendo's history. And on its third iteration, Super Smash Bros. Bra...

For anyone looking for an entertaining romp with mindless action and senseless violence, the choices have always been few and far between on Nintendo consoles. Which is why seeing a game like No More Heroes have its moment in the sun on a system such as the Wii is such a refreshing change of pace. The game follows the adventures of Travis Touchd...
