NEVERSOFT'S WII/GC REVIEW-O-RAMA
Zelda TP - Fantastic although the "fetch quests" get a little boring and your next objective isn't always explained very well, leaving you meandering around looking for something to do. Sexeh graphics and nice controls. 8/10
Super Monkey Ball - Very good at first but not enough depth to the main game and it doesn't last long. Coupled with a shitload of mostly wank mini games. Worth a rental but don't buy. If you want a decent Monkey Ball game, get the GC one 5/10
Rayman Raving Rabbids - Extremely funny and not bad graphics. Good for a laugh and worth the purchase... Just don't pay full RRP 8/10
Warioware: Smooth Moves - Shows the Wiimote for what it is... VERY accurate. Quirky game and a good showcase for the Wiimote but totally lacking in decent two player games. It has em (once you beat the one player game) but you take it in turns to play... Not only is this stupid as I have four Wiimotes (with nunchucks) but it flies in the face of all the safety dogshit regarding wrist straps as the multiplayer games encourage you to rapidly pass the Wiimote to the next player. A bit of a "Marmite" game, you either love it or hate it - I love it. The Darts game is good (once you turn it on). Oh, and the graphics mostly suck arse although I guess thats just part of the "quirkyness" 8/10
Wii Sports: Better than free beer! Crap graphics but it doesn't matter. Fan-fucking-tastic. 10/10
Wii Play: Laser Hockey, Tank Game and the Billiards aren't bad but the rest of the games are bunk. Not bad if you need a Wiimote anyway though 4/10
I also grabbed a few GameCube games...
Mario Sunshine: Not *as* good as Mario64 but still damned decent. The camera is the biggest let down as it's a step-back from M64 as it's almost entirely manually panned. 8/10
Resident Evil 4: Looks gorgeous and plays well. If you like Resident Evil games, this one is the dogs! A twat to buy cos you can't find the fucker anywhere but if you do, uNF!! 9/10
Eternal Darkness: Not bad graphics (for a GC game) and the insanity system works well. Similar to other survival horror games but different enough to stand out. Worth checking out. 7/10
I think that's all I've got (from memory). Oh, you also need a Wavebird controller... If you can find one
I've already got Res 4. Bought it for my Cube ages ago!
Now, you have presented me with a problem, my fallback game AFTER Red Steel was Super Monkey Ball! Now i'm not so sure. I might just pick up Wario or maybe just pre order Mario Galaxy
