Super Smash Bros Brawl for Wii

This game has garnered great reviews from the gaming community and I think this game deserves it. I watched on my local news the lines on Saturday night lining up to buy this game. It is truly a great game. Check out gamespot.com review on the game:

Bully: Scholarship Edition

I never saw this back in the day when it came out on the PS2. This looks like a pretty fun game and scored an 8.0 at ign.com. I have included the review below:

Wii, so far so good.

Since November of 2006, the Nintendo Wii has been winning the console war big time. The Wii is still in scarcity almost a year and a half into its products life cycle. This has been a boon for Nintendo to witness. I for one have not seen a Wii ever at Costco since I got inline to buy one the first day it came out there. I routinely see many boxes for PS3's and XBOX 360 everytime I go there, but no Wii's.

I can't wait for Mario Kart to come out soon so. That game is a classic and is so fun to play. I hope that there will be more support this year from other software companies for such a runaway success with the Wii. Here's to kicking Microsoft and Sony to the curb.

Unreal Tournament 3

I am an avid fan of Unreal Tournament 3. I absolutely loved the 2004 variety and think that this version is going to be just that much better. I am excited that you can play a module that is all in vehicles. Check out this review from gamespot.com:

Super Mario Galaxy

Super Mario Galaxy looks like a real winner and has scored high scores from ign.com (9.7) and from gamespot.com (9.5). I have included a video review below from ign.com:

Manhunt 2 - Pulled from shelves?

Ok so a super gory game has come out for the Wii and supposedly Target is discontinued the sale of the game due to the following statement: "we received additional information that players can potentially view previously filtered content by altering the game code. As a result, we have decided not to carry the game." This was taken from Gamespot.com here.

I bet there are many movies at Target that have an "R" rating that can come close to the violence that is in Manhunt 2, yet there isn't anything done about this. I think this is a double standard. If you don't like the game, don't buy it. People can make choices not to buy this if they don't want to. Let consumers decide instead of taking the opportunity away from us. I think this is a bad move by Target.

Away for a while - thoughts on recent games

OK, I have not blogged in a long time about the Nintendo Wii. I have been really busy with changing jobs twice since my last blog and am now on my feet again. A great game that I want to blog about is Resident Evil 4 for the Wii. This game is flat out amazing. If anyone did not try it on the Gamecube this is a must play game for the Wii with the updated control scheme. Even though this game is over 2 years old, it has still scored over 9 out of 10 on a lot of the review sites. I would check it out.
