rossi_1983 Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 Games I will to buy in near future are: Mario Galaxy - A must own, and woul dhave got it for Christmas, but decided to let head rule and wait till after exams Mario Kart - Nuff said! Then other games I am very tempted in: No More Heroes - Looks good and quite different Metroid Prime - Great reviews, and FPS controls work really well on wii Zak and Wiki - Puzzle game, that looks similar in style to the classic monkey island series! I basically want all the games, but will have to make decisions on which ones are most important New Star Wars game also looks good, with the mote controlling your lightsaber, and the nunchuck to use force powers, apparently out in the summer Just found out there is also gonna be a Pro Evo game and an Alone in the Dark game for wii this year! Better get saving! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completed all the circuits to unlock all the events, but some of them are really difficult. Can not get over 6m in the pole vault, and never had over 80m in the hammer, but I have mastered the running events. P.B. for the 100m is sub 9.5!

Can dominate some events but struggle in the extreme with others. I can run the 100m in 9.333 seconds but can't swim (which has similar controls) at all... Most of the track n field events are pretty good, i also hold world records for javelin, hammer, high jump.

I think that's the key They have contrasted it quite nicely so all the events don't rely on speed or power Would be very difficult to master every event as they are so different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivan Drago Posted February 25, 2008 Author Share Posted February 25, 2008 Pro Evo looks amazing - you'll basically be able to run with one player while pointing and controlling your players with the remote, sounds complicated but has potential to be the best pro evo yet imo, japanese gaming bible Famitsu gave it 36/40,... Super Smash Bros will be essential too, Famitsu gave this 40/40.

That style of Pro Ev looks like potentially the best football sim ever.I don't think it will be because the will always be so flaws on the first effort but 1 or 2 games down the line done in the same style and it will be incredible.

N User Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 The pointing in PES sounds good. Even though it's minimal pointing, in Mario Galaxy you're pointing whilst playing and it's flawless. My only issue (I think i've said before) is the motion control. In fifa, motion control is absolutely pish and hopefully PES doesn't do similar.

Paid at the end of the month so will be looking to buy a couple of games... Oh aye and its my birthday on Sunday so thinkin about dropping some big hints! Tiger Woods has got some shocking reviews, but i cant understand why - i LOVE it. Its bloody difficult, and after 10 minutes you'll want to take it back to the shop, but after perservering its, imo, the best golf game iv ever played. I wouldnt even look at a golf game on a traditional console now. As you'd expect, its far more in depth than Wii golf, and the great career mode etc is all there. While its perhaps not the perfect simulation - it doesnt map your exact movements, it does feel like your actually playing golf, unlike wii sports. I would reccomend it to anyone, however it is bloody difficult and frstrating to begin with, so make sure you have something nearby to punch.

Saw that in the review on IGN They say it is brilliant, but you need a gamecube controller for it to work best I wasn't planning on buying any, as I wasn't gonna bother with downloading any classic games (unless they get Goldeneye). You can get some gameware ones from Game for less than a tenner though, so may buy it at some point in the future once I have got the rest of the games on my list!
