Red Steel – a mini-review
In a Wii-related rant I posted last month, I trashed the Ubisoft launch title Red Steel. I referred to the game as “half-assed”. In all honesty, at that point, I hadn’t even touched the game. I was in no position to call it anything, really. So, when I signed up for a GamezNFlix membership, Red […]
Our Wii experience is expanding
Our Wii game collection is up to four games, now. The Wii Sports pack-in remains the favorite of the entire family, but Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess is what eats up all of my free time these days. I also managed to garner Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz for my wife for Christmas, which has […]

Getting the Wii on my wireless network was so enormously simple, it just about made me cry. It basically went […]

Battalion Wars 2 for the Wii
After hearing about Battalion Wars 2 for the Wii I was faily interested. Hearing that it will include online multiplayer, I got excited. Seeing the controls, I’m absolutely ecstatic. People who don’t think the Wii will bring about a gaming revolution simply aren’t paying attention. I’m pretty busy at work these days. That’s why you’re […]
