i love my wii.

I got Red Steel and everyone talked me into zelda last night.

Wii sports is fun, some of the games feel clunky and some are just plain annoying. Tennis is okay, but gets kinda boring after a few matches mainly because all your doing is swinging. Snorefest. Baseball is fun two player but for some reason i can not hit the ball strait. Every hit is a foul ball and every time i manage to hit the ball into the field someone catches it. Annoying. Bowling is one of the best games on it. Having worked in a bowling alley i can say that they got the mechanics of bowling perfect. All it needs is a short bald guy next to you yelling about you talking to loud is messing up his game. Awesome. Golf could have been better. No matter how many practice shots i take and make it perfect, when it comes to the real deal i always wind up slicing it. Putting is a CHORE, but it teaches you control. This game is great multiplayer, at least till super swing golf comes out. Cant wait. Finally boxing. Probably the worst game on the thing. I jumped into it thinking it would be a blast. Played a few matches and downed a few people. So a friend came over and we started playing it together. With no training or even playing the game before he somehow managed to beat me by just flailing around. Annoying.

But just like the burger king games its hard to complain about the game mainly because it was free. for some reason to me a games faults seem to wash away as long as my wallet doesnt get any thinner.

Red Steel is a lot of fun. After getting used to the controls its really fun to hop into the game and run and gun. Its cool because they dont lay everything in front of you like most FPS do. Hell you dont even get grenades till you get like 40 percent in the game. The story is good and keeps throwing surprises at you the entire time. The sword fighting is one of the downpoints. Its clunky and unresponsive. The system is suppost to be a mix of dodging, parrying and counter-strikes. But breaks down to swinging the controllers around trying to get in a hit because that bastard never leaves an open spot and just blocked like 7 hits in a row. Kinda gets lame after a bit. I was hoping it was gonna get better when i got to the sword school, but i didnt learn anything new other than another technique that never manages to work half the time. Multiplayer is disapointing as well and work way better online, and all you can do is gun fights, swords are kinda used as a melee attack but i think a cool sword fight would totallly work in this game.

I got zelda last night, its cool. Zelda review over.
