 Wii Speak? We wanna!, 2008-10-15
"Here in Europe, the Wii Speak channel will be available from 5th December. For the moment, you'll be able to pick up your adapter when you buy a Wii Speak compatible game, such as the soon to be launched "Animal Crossing: Let's Go To The City". "
So the Wii may soon have voice communication, perhaps even between different players.
I wonder if we can look forward to upgrades for programs like Mario Kart so you can really insult the losers, rahter than those lame "I'll do better next time" comments
I suspect I'll buy animal crossing, if only for the Wii Speak. Hopefully it won't be as disappointing as Wii Ski (aka Family Ski in Europe) and its lame implementation of the balance board. (Lame is appropriate for something that doesn't ski as well as Wii Fit)

In a nutshell:
Possibly the least obscure game title ever, this does exactly what it says on the tin with forty-two classics from chess and backgammon, to darts, poker, bridge and solitaire. The lowdown:
The surprising thing about this game is that nobody's thought to do it before. The games are split into three varieties of card game and two of board games, plus a selection of "action" games including bowling, darts and billiards. Playing the card games is just as easy as you'd expect with two screens and a stylus, whether it's Old Maid and Pig or Texas Hold `Em and Bridge. The board games work just as well, with Chinese Checkers, Checkers (i.e. Draughts), Dots and Boxes and more. You'll also find games like Turncoat (i.e. Othello), "Connect Five", Ludo, Mahjong and Solitaire. You have got to go to some effort not to find something of interest amongst this selection. Most exciting moment:
The best thing about having so many games is that, except for the ones that are purposefully single player, they can all be played online. If you're playing against a friend you can even chat using a PictoChat style interface. Since you ask:
The Japanese and Western versions of the game have several different exclusive games. Japan never got Texas Hold 'Em, Dots and Boxes, Grid Attack, Ludo, Dominoes, Escape or Mahjong Solitaire but instead have Napoleon, Goninkan, Bozumekuri, Sugoroku, Size Game, Last One and Mini Golf in their version. The bottom line:
The one video games compendium that really is for everyone. - HARRISON DENT
Nintendo DS lite 42 all-time classics, 2008-08-19
This is the first game I got with my DS, best thing I could have bought, loads of games, new ones and old favorites. It really gets your brain going, there is some thing for everyone.Very good value for money, (these DS games can be quite pricey)I cant put the thing down, even my husband is fighting over it. I highly recommend this game , especially to the more mature buyer.

The Wii Light Blaster Gun brings shooting games to life with amazing realism. Connecting quickly and safely to the Wii Remote while keeping the sensor and buttons fully accessible during game play.
Spot on, 2008-08-31
This is prfect for house of the dead, it is well balanced and the spring loaded trigger feels great. you can plug the nunchuck into the bottom of the handle if you need to. it feels well made and more authentic than the blaster. ok you don't get a game with it but it is essential for a real light gun experiance.

- In the last instalment of the Halo trilogy, the Covenant has taken control of Earth and released the Flood, a parasitic alien species
- The fate of the entire universe is in the balance as a secret buried for hundreds of centuries may hold the key to salvation
- or certain death!Once again, you'll take on the role of Master Chief, a cybernetically-enhanced human super-soldier, to solve the mystery and put an end to the threat facing the world once and for all!
PREPARE.......for something special, 2008-10-02
I found that there are two reasons why people dont like halo 3, first there ps3 fanboys who go on and write bad reviews about halo to dull it down. Two they suck online and are "t-bagged" or "n00bed DANCED" TOO MUCH. This game is amazing, story ok but online you just cant top halo 3. Why do people say "halo killer", well because to be the best, you must first go threw the best, and thats halo 3.

A Lot Of Fun, Very Detailed, Excellent Online Racing!, 2008-11-15
Having played this game for over 40 hours, I now feel I can give it a justified review. I'll list what makes this game good.
(1) The shear detail of the game and the massive work that must have went into creating it. It's absolute genius. It looks outstanding on a 1080P HD TV.
(2) The choice of vehicles very good.
(3) Value for money, the career mode is long so it will keep you occupied for a long while, I still haven't completed it.
(4) Online gaming is very addictive; you will race some very skilled racers from all over the world.
(5) Customisation options for the vehicles are very good... you can even upload online to allow people worldwide to rate your vehicle and purchase it if they want.
Tips:
(1) Go into Arcade mode, select Sunset and Vine and change the difficulty to easiest, weather clear, time of day noon, number of opponents 5 and traffic off and play this over and over again as it's an easy track, each time you win you will get more money, you will also unlock performance and cosmetic parts for the vehicles and you will also unlock higher vehicle groups providing you get 1 place 5 - 10 times in a row. This is very easy.
(2) In the beginning use 1 vehicle at a time, don't be tempted to buy more than one... max it out with performance if necessary to win races. Avoid spending money on looks; you can do this when you have group 4 vehicles open. Then build up money and trade it in for an even better model. When you have unlocked group 4, you should buy the Kawasaki Ninja ZX14R, without doubt the quickest most manoeuvrable vehicle for online races. I have this and the Lamborghini Murcielago DUB for a good mix both maxed out with incredible performance.
Anyway, buy this game... don't listen to the negative reviews, if you give this game sometime you will lose yourself in it.

Twenty years after Nintendos biggest franchise was born, the Mario Bros. return in a dazzling, all-new platformer sure to set players fingers twitching. Fans from Marios classic days will see their dreams answered in this return to the Mushroom Kingdom, while a new generation of Mario players will learn what true platforming greatness means. Run, jump and battle enemies through multiple levels in each world. Every time players finish one world, they can move onto the next, but each level features impediments in the forms of fortresses, Hammer Bros. and bosses. After defeating the boss of each world, players can move on to the next, culminating in the final fight in the last world. Mario and Luigi can do all kinds of jump maneuvers: increasingly high triple jumps, wall jumps and high bounces off enemies. Mario also can use power-ups like Mushrooms (grow big), Fire Flowers (throw fireballs), Starmen (become invincible), Blue Shells (turn into a speedy, blue Koopa shell) and other mushrooms that make him tiny or huge. In addition to the main game and the wireless two-player mode, players also can use the touch screen to play tons of minigames (either by themselves or over DS Local Area Network with 1 to 4 players via DS Download Play). These include card games, targetbopping-type games and much more. Features: Jump, bounce and power-up through visually stunning side-scrolling worlds filled with Mushroom Kingdom madness. Mushrooms make Mario ultra-tiny or ultrahuge, and new items like the Blue Shell (which transforms Mario into a spinning shell that wipes out enemies) will keep players on their toes. The worlds are swarming with classic enemies like Goombas and Koopas, but watch out for new foes, big bosses and unbelievable challenges. As Mario and Luigi, two players can battle for stars on specially designed levels over local wireless. The game wont end until one bro. reigns supreme.
