For little more than the price of a controller, you get this beginers game to get you going. Quite entertaining and very easy to use

It talks you through step by step how to use the remote with different games, practicing skills that will come in useful on other games.

It should entertain the kids for a while

Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games (Wii)

When it got this game I thought it was brilliant after 2 months I still thought it was brilliant. BUT after 3 months this game was pretty average the reason being the lack of events, yea sure I got hundreds of world records but there is just NOT ENOUGH EVENTS!!!!!! The graphics are very good there are some good characters to choose from, there are some dream events which are quite fun that you can't have anywhere else. Another thing with the game is that if you get a world record on 2 player mode it doesn't count, for example I threw 113 meters on javelin in 2 p mode when the record is only 98 meters and it says 'new world record on the results table but when you start again next time you play it will be 98 meters!

The story mode is kind of weird but after an hour or two, you get used to it. It is very different to other sonic games as its multiplayer mode can take up to four people and the mini games are much more competitive.

I was in two minds whether to buy this game seeing various mixed reviews on amazon. However being a keen sports fan and having played similair games such as torino 2006 on the PC i decided to go for it. And i haven't put the game down for an entire week and can see myself getting plenty of use from it its superb and i would endorse any reader to purchase this game.

Graphically its very nice, you have an opening ceremony, and if you can win a medal at an event then you have a podium ceremony and they play around 30 seconds of your countries national anthem which is a great touch. All crisp and clean and effects you'd expect to see if skiing such as spray and snow etc.... Sound wise there is commentry from two chaps who provide a quirky chat between ... Read More:

Ok so it's old, the graphics aren't what you would call next generation and the voice acting is truely awful....... the thing is this game is what alot of games aren't anymore....FUN! If you played trhe old arcade games then you will love this and if you didn't you will probably still love it. blowing the heads off zombies is very theraputic. I've got umbrella chronicles too and although technically it's better it ain't a patch on this. who buys a wii for graphics anyway??? buy this now but not from amazon i got next day delivery from an ebay shop. woo hoo!

Smartypants (Wii)

I bought this quiz game so the family could do something different but together, at first we went with the settings that first came up and realised 'tugs of war' etc to gain more points or make the quiz harder or easier for the other person was a bit naff. After altering the settings we could actually hold a quiz without too much 'sillyness'. The questions are ok but not what you would expect from the topics you choose. After a while it gets boring as it takes too long to 'play'.

I thought it would be a bit like trivial pursuit where you have questions to answer - end of but is not. Mind you its not TP and has not stated it is anything like it.

It is fun if you like a long drawn out quiz with daft bits in but if you are looking for something ... Read More:

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Wii)

Having played all the previous games (and hating the third person approach similar to EA's Return of the King in the Goblt of Fire) I'd have to say they've probably spent the most money on this one, and you can tell. The sets ARE from the movie, the voices ('cept one or two) ARE from the movie and even some of the music is FINALLY from the movie (only took them this long, didn't it?). If you've been frustrated or let down by how Hogwarts just didn't look like or even resemble the world of the books or films, this one cracks that nut. In fact, it's so big they've had to give you a map to help you out of getting lost.

And no more still-image montages, it's all properly animated (thank goodness). However, there is a knack to casting spells, and depending on ... Read More:

Graphics are good for the wii and technically it is good BUT.... it's slow, boring, very hard and the bossess are stupid. you have to hit a single pixel on their head to kill them and it just gets frustrating. all the enemies are the same and it gets very repetetive. the dodge mechanism is rubbish, and the light gun doesn't aim properly as it has no calibration tool. if you want a zombie shooter get House of the Dead. it's much more fun and you don't need the nunchuck, with the venom light gun and the calibration tool it is a proper light gun shooter.

According to this game i am a great singer. According to my mum I'd be sent home in the first round of X Factor. So as you can imagine- I love the game!!! It's especially good at parties (although I don't know if my neighbours would agree). If you're a HSM Fan then it's well worth the money.
