Some quick Wii reviews.

I don't have many Wii games so ill review them all.

First lets start with Rayman Raving Rabids. I wouldn't have bought it but I got to pick one free game out of like 4 games at that looked like the best out of the 4. Its a mini game collection. Pure and simple. You are Rayman and you get captured by Rabids. These little frog things get captured too. You have to rescue them and escape. Most of the mini games are boring, difficult as hell, or just monotonous. The fun parts are the dance levels, which are like a simple ddr. And the best parts are the shooting levels, and there are a lot of them. They are standard light gun type games like Virtua Cop or House Of The Dead. (which i may review later) Some of the mini games are fun, but those are few and far between. If you just have to play this game, just rent it. Its not worth paying for.

Zelda Twilight Princess. I can't go much into this game. I didn't get very far in it. I'm not very good at Zelda games. I really should try to play it again. I even have a guide for it. From what i've play, its a very fun game, the graphics look really good for a Wii game. If you like 3d Zelda games, this would be a definite buy.

Mario Party 8. The Mario Party franchise has been around since the N64 and they make a new one almost every year. There still good. But they have gone downhill since the first 3, which were great party games. I didn't get to play the first one much though since I don't own it. But enough about my history with Mario Party games, lets get on with the review shall we. The wii controller adds some variety to the mini games, but not enough. Most of the games are fun. Some aren't, but thats how it is with every Mario Party game. The graphics are weak, even for a Wii game. The mini games don't even support widescreen, it just puts a border around the mini games. How lazy. This is still a really good party game, so if you have people over this would be a good one to have.

Last but defiantly not least, SUPER MARIO GALAXY. This is by far, my favorite Wii game. I've always been a huge fan of the Mario platformers. This one gets back to Mario platforming bliss. No more stupid FLUDD. (the squirt gun thing from Super Mario Sunshine) This is the best graphics Wii game yet. The amount of variety in the levels is stunning. The water effects are brilliant. The fur on the creature looks really cool. This is just a great game to look at. Control wise, I've had no problems, unlike some other wii games. The controls are very smooth. Wii movements don't feel tacked on, they feel natural. This game is a definite buy.

Cheers,
