I remember when I was young. I used to sit in the floor with my NES and play Super Mario Bros. 3 with a friend. We would play in 2 player mode and switch off between levels, one being Luigi, the other Mario (I always had to be Mario). It was so much fun to [...]

If you have played Guitar Hero or Rock Band or every talked about it, I’m sure you’re familiar with the following situation. You’re sitting there, eating your lunch while telling another person all about your Guitar Hero: World Tour purchase and how much you enjoy it. Then some douchebag has to try to inform you [...]

I played Metal Gear 4 tonight for about an hour. After about 45 minutes, the game started getting boring. I experience the same feeling with many games lately. It’s always the same thing.

I finished just finished Metal Gear Solid 2. Yeah, just now. I never got around to it in the 5 years I’ve owned it. I have to say the entire game bored me to death. It didn’t challenge me at all. Sure some of the levels were difficult at times, but when I died, I [...]

I am really glad I decided on the Wii over the Xbox 360. Here are the reasons:

The system comes with games, actually several games on with the Wii Sports game disc.
It also comes with built in wireless so no need to buy an adapter separately.
I get exercise when I play.
Simple controllers [...]

After talking with various Nintendo Wii owners over the past few months, it has become clear that the gaming system is not the traditional type for most people. I’ve found many gamers that just don’t keep it attached to their TV’s all the time so they can jump in for a quick game here and [...]

I was always a big fan of the old Tecmo Bowl football games for the Nintendo back in the 80’s and 90’s. Now I will be able to relive those good times again as Tecmo is planning a new version of Tecmo Bowl for the Nintendo Wii. The game will have the feel of the [...]
