Preview: DECA Sports 2 (Nintendo Wii)
When the first DECA Sports game was released, I wondered what was the point of another sports themed mini-game collection. Not only does one come packaged with the Wii system, but there have been several similar type games released. However the original DECA Sports not only did well, it did very well, outselling a majority…

Review: Wii Sports Resort (Nintendo Wii)
Wii Sports Resort Publisher: Nintendo Developer: Nintendo Genre: Sports/Mini-Games Release Date: 07/26/2009 The original Wii Sports came as a pack-in with the Nintendo Wii at launch.

Review: Rock Band Country Track Pack (Nintendo Wii)
Rock Band: Country Track Pack Genre: Music Developer: Harmonix Publisher: Electronic Arts Release Date: 07/21/2009 Story/Modes: Once again, not that I expected a Track Pack to rectify this, the Tour mode present on the 360/PS3 platforms is completely missing here. Moreover, since all songs are playable from multiplier from the first time you put the…

Overlord: Dark Legend Genre: Action Developer: Climax Publisher: Codemasters Release Date: 06/30/2009 Across different video game forums an ongoing debate rages over the Nintendo Wii: are there too many casual games and not enough games for the hardcore gamer.

Review: Bust-A-Move Plus (WiiWare)
Bust-A-Move Plus Publisher: Square-Enix Developer: Taito Genre: Puzzle Release Date: 07/06/2009 I hate Bust-A-Move. Rather I hate the name. I prefer the franchise under the Puzzle Bobble name. I mean, it’s a Bubble Bobble spin-off, featuring Bub and Bob. Why not leave the connection apparent. Plus Young MC was so two decades ago. Unlike the…

Review: The Conduit (Nintendo Wii)
The Conduit Genre: First Person Shooter Developer: High Voltage Studios Publisher: SEGA Release Date: 06/30/09 Ever since The Conduit was announced, there has been a nearly absurd amount of hype about the game. Compared to the other recently released games for the Wii, The Conduit sticks out like Michael Jackson at a preschool graduation. There…

Review: Punch-Out!! (Nintendo Wii)
Punch-Out!! Genre: Arcade Sports Developer: Next Level Games Publisher: Nintendo Release Date: 05/18/2009 The NES version of Punch-Out!! is, in my humble opinion, one of the very few truly perfect games ever made. I’m not saying it’s necessarily the best game ever, as there are other games I would rate more highly based on innovation…
