LJSexay 0 Report post Posted November 5, 2007 andddddd I'll be buying THAT tomorrow! I bought Zack & Wiki today, and... it is freaking great. Totally great. I'd recommend it to anyone who likes clever, well-thought out puzzles and great, interesting characters and settings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MarvinisaLunatic 0 Report post Posted November 5, 2007 Apparently, if you buy Mario Galaxy on the day it comes out at TRU, you get a $25 gift card. No idea if it works for preorders or not. I still have a $30 gc to gamecrazy from last Christmas I need to use though... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

luke-o 0 Report post Posted November 6, 2007 I might be in the minority, but that game looks pretty fun. I'm not a fan of serious racers, which is why I liked Excite Truck so much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndrewTS 0 Report post Posted November 6, 2007 http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x3dmka_cr...aled_videogames Holy lord this game looks terrible. I know it's become so common that it's a cliche to say a Wii game looks like an N64 game. It wouldn't be true in this case, even, because the Cruisin' games for N64 looked really, really bad. Plus, tiny, blurry, artifact-ridden flash videos rarely make a video game look good. However, that would be barely-par for about a first-gen PS2 game, I'd say. Might be fun, though. Cruisin' USA in the arcades was fine for some stupid fun for a few quarters. However, I like Outrun 2 for Xbox than any of that series' games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spaceman Spiff 0 Report post Posted November 7, 2007 Cruisin' USA in the arcades was fine for some stupid fun for a few quarters. Back in college, the common area for my dorm had Cruisin' USA installed for a while. After a bit, the machine "broke", insofar that you could simply push in the coin slot/return button-thing & get free credits. Stayed like that for a while, too. Got to play through the whole game for free quite a few times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ChrisMWaters 0 Report post Posted November 8, 2007 For now though, I've been playing Mario and Sonic. Fun game in my view. Surreal seeing some characters interact. (Pictures Eggman making Robotic Shyguys now...) It DOES get tiring on the arms after a while though. Hence why they included "Take a Break Now" screens every so often.

luke-o 0 Report post Posted November 8, 2007 Mario and Sonic is a game I'm really looking forward to playing. I'm a mark for the old Track and Field games and I'd imagine this isn't too disimiliar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AndrewTS 0 Report post Posted November 8, 2007 It appears the reviewer wasn't fat enough. ? When Gamespot released their Zelda TP review, there was a meltdown over the score. A lot of childish Nintendards responded by mocking the rather husky Jeff Gerstmann's weight, among other negative comments. Gamespot dynamited any moral high ground they had with an utterly childish reply from one of the head editors about the situation, though. It seemed to some like Gamespot has been lowballing Wii scores for good games a lot since then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BorneAgain 0 Report post Posted November 9, 2007 This just seems so unlikely that I don't believe it, but 1up.com doesn't strike me as reporting too much BS... Updated version of WWF No Mercy to appear on WiiWare Like I said, probably BS, but in the unlikely event its true, awesome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Downhome 0 Report post Posted November 9, 2007 If that ends up being true, it's my favorite news in a while. I wish they could make it online as well, if possible. I'd buy it in a second. Heck, I'd almost be willing to pay the price of a normal game for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZGangsta 0 Report post Posted November 9, 2007 IGN says that the Wii-mote/Nunchuck mode in Medal of Honor Heroes 2 has the best console FPS controls ever. Oh and I'd also almost consider paying full price for a rerelease of No Mercy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Smues Report post Posted November 9, 2007 I'm sure I'd buy the updated No Mercy, but it's too bad we'll never get a straight port of the original. I'll take that time periods roster over today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
