Wii Music: Nintendo Wii

...

NOT! All you do is move your arms. The faster you move the faster they play with no real objective.

Finally, the music pretty much stinks. You only get very simple, humdrum pieces to imagine you're playing to. The Mario theme in the commercial is as exciting as it gets, and you don't even get to play that initially.

I cannot express enough how boring the program is, unless you're under 5yrs old. Regardless of what anyone else writes, it's not worth even [...]! I work in toys and electronics and play most every game out for the Wii. I STRONGLY encourage my customers not to waste their money on this title, & I recommend you look elsewhere as well.

Wii - Nights

...

could go anywhere.

Getting better at flying takes time, so don't get discouraged if you're not that good at it when you first start playing. My first time through some levels, I was running into walls and things that I really shouldn't have been. I kept going, though, and while I'm still not the best, I've been able to blast through some stages without much trouble at all.

Speaking of the levels, they are diverse and fun. Some, you are Nights, and you have different time limits and goals that must be accomplished, and others you are either the boy or the girl, who each have different missions to accomplish. (And finishing the game with both of them gives you a different ending.)

The end bosses are varied as well, with different techniques used to defeat each of them. The very first one I fought was kind of like a big pinball game, where the boss was the pinball and I was throwing him through it. That one was difficult to get used to, as the level switches from a vertical plane to a horizontal one, just for that.

While the game is a little short, that is sort of a blessing, as some of the levels are huge and would take a long time to learn. I constantly go back through old levels, though. I can always get better at the game, and it's really fun to re-play.

Level design is truly inspired, as there are many various level types and game play styles.

It makes me wish they'd either create a sequel, or update the original Sega Saturn game for Wii.

Sonic Unleashed: Nintendo Wii

...

of best graphics you'll see on the Wii and CG cut scenes are great with good story to back it up. My only problems are they should had less Werehog stages,more speed stages, rid of all text screens,The wiimote and nunchuck combo sadly are worst controls of game, and get rid of reptetive task of having to read samething. Overall game is pretty good and does better then Sonic and Secret rings or Sonic The Hedgehog on 360 and it barely does better then Sonic Heroes. My last thing I should say is when playing this game is to use the classic controller or gamecube for more precise controls asides from that most people asides from fans of hedgehog will indeed enjoy this game.

Cooking Mama: World Kitchen: Nintendo Wii

...

join with you. When you successfully complete a recipe in this scenario a new recipe is unlocked. Sometimes when you make a mistake a mini-game pops up to give you a chance to recover from the mistake.

The second scenario is "Let's Cook" in which you cook alone without Mama's help and serve the food to "friends" that come with the game. The visual instructions are the same as in "Cook with Mama" but you don't get rated on each step and you don't have Mama's help.

The third scenario is a competition with dual player, single player and surprise modes. This is supposed to be fast-paced and I have not tried it for reasons you will soon understand.

There is also an "Album" feature that captures your cooking mistakes for you to relive and which allows you to replay any of the mini-games you have unlocked. The mini-games aren't that exciting, lasting only a few seconds. They are a little bit more fun when they come up as a surprise in game play when you make a cooking mistake. The surprise element makes them more entertaining and the fact that they last only a few seconds makes them bearable if you get one you don't like. You don't have a choice about whether or not to play.

The first thing I noticed about CMWK is that it comes with a coupon for Nestle Toll House morsels and four of the thirteen pages in the instruction booklet are dedicated solely to real-life Nestle Toll House recipes. But that's product placement for you. There is also a Toll House cookie recipe in the game. I wouldn't really care about this except that there is one very important element missing from the instruction booklet -- instruction on using the Wii remote with this game. That's not completely fair - there is one page dedicated to "Control Icons" that gives a general description of what to do with the remote when those icons appear on the screen. But it is completely inadequate and not even printed in color. In the game, icons appear on the screen that tell you two things 1) how to hold the wii remote - normal, vertical and two horizontal positions; 2) what motion to make with the remote in that position.

Sounds easy, right? Maybe I'll figure it out on my own, but I sure wish there were better descriptions in the instruction booklet or at least on the game site. I can't find any. With seven different motions and four positions, there are twenty eight possible actions to take which represent at least twenty eight different cooking skills. It's not clear how some of them differ or exactly what they require. "Move back and forth in vertical position" differs from "tilt in vertical position" how? Perhaps the most frustrating thing about this is that the actions that do work work pretty well. Breaking an egg requires tapping it not too gently and not too hard. Cool. Forming hamburger patties means tossing them back and forth in your hands. Go too slow and you'll drop the patty, too fast and it splats on the screen. You have to find the rhythm and once you do you feel like you've got the "knack".

So far, as the title to this review states, I'm just hoping I'll catch on and get used to the movements. But for me this takes a lot of fun out of discovering the game. Instead of getting better, I'm just getting frustrated. So many other Wii games do such a nice job of coaching the player through the controls that this feels like an insult. Would it have been so hard to use four pages of the instruction booklet to describe the controls and what actions they represent and maybe only one page on printing recipes I can find on any bag of Nestle chocolate morsels anyway?

Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World: Nintendo Wii

You have to go to a heavily populated monster area to level up on your own.
Of course, I've only played through not even half way, so here's to the road ahead! I know I'll enjoy it. I loved the first Tales of Symphonia. And this game has a really interesting plot!

MySims Kingdom: Nintendo Wii

amount of Essences in order to complete. When you complete the scroll, you get more items in your inventory to use when designing rooms and spaces. After you get all the scrolls, acquiring essences is pointless. Completing tasks for people takes a few seconds and all you get are outfits to wear in your little dress-up corner. Total loss of motivating factor for me. I didn't play MS for the outfits, I played for the design and customizing element.

Also important to note that MSK takes about 2 hours to beat and after you win the tasks the Sims require of you are mundane and boring. Original MS was much longer and satisfying. If you haven't played the first one, get it instead. The only reason I play MSK is because I paid money for it and feel guilty about it sitting on the shelf.

The build system is just as frustrating as well - for example, it's near impossible to get fencing sections to make corners. While MS was frustrating too, at least it was a very intuitive system.

Need for Speed: Undercover: Nintendo Wii

...

Ford GT that dominates every other car in the game LoL).

Finally we have what is supposed to be the new best-of NFS game, undercover.

This is the first to have truly movie-quality video (as opposed to the stylized video of previous NFS games). I wish they'd stylized it again though, it is a bit jarring compared to the look of the game, the earlier games made FMV blend better with the game and it allowed us to overlook the pretty-good but not great acting. The acting in this isn't bad, but it's not something you'd watch by choice if it was on TV imho. So video is ok but I don't love the look of it, not nearly as bad as some reviews have said though.

I believe that the plot is EA's way of making good on supporting the police and the law while still offering underground racing and police chases. I believe they came up with this concept well and I can't see how else they could have done this concept without becoming "bad influences" again (a big complaint against EA in the days of Carbon, Most Wanted and Underground). So deal with it, use your imagination and don't laugh at the plot - it's not stupid at all and as always it does match up with movies we pay good money to go see :-)

What EA did right:
- brought back police chases
- you get to drive police cars at times!!
- police choppers (hey, that's not FAIR LoL)
- tougher cops at later parts of game (REALLY tough)
- easier racing mechanics from prostreet (this is a fun game, not for someone looking for super tough try and again and again racing, this is way more fun but won't last the hardcore racer very long, good for the Wii imho and I for one am tired of swearing through Most Wanted's "restart race" button clicks)
- big(ish) worlds you can explore at will (a good thing to learn if you're going to outrun cops, don't underestimate how important learning your cities is...)
- Most Wanted's breakable obstacles to throw off cops (and the animations are great for them considering their purpose, why would someone say they're lame? wtf do reviewers expect?? it's a tiny part of a huge game and the animations are far better than in Most Wanted)
- best graphics ever for a Wii/Gamecube racing game (yes, better than in Most Wanted imho despite what some reviewers have been saying, I think people are looking at the 3 year old Most Wanted with rose-tinted glasses sometimes, it has it's share of issues....)
- great sounds, great soundtrack, speedbreaker is back (YAY!!), all the best control features from previous games are here
- all new stunts you can perform at high speeds!!
- good upgradeable cars (too bad they used the limited upgrading based on how advanced you are that was in the underground series, but as long as you're patient you'll get good upgrades. And for the record (again to the reviewers out there), since the game is so much easier to beat with a tricked out car, why would EA be stupid enough to allow you to trick out your car fully at the beginning? you have to ADVANCE through the game to improve enough to get to the next level. This is a game, and a fun one and one that will take some time to complete but not because you have to keep trying over and over again, it's just got a good long sequence of events and levels to complete (from what I can see so far). Well done imho.
- wide roads without too much traffic gives me a chance to really have fun racing, it's again all about the fun aspect. I prefer this system, but there are a few small lanes and there are highway scenes with a ton of traffic to weave through as well so don't get too comfortable!

What EA may have missed the boat on:
- in an effort to minimize how much detail is needed on screen so they can render better quality cars and nicer detail and better models, EA has gone with the older game coding trick (also in gamecube NFS games) of reducing the variety of on screen colors to smooth everything over and speed up some rendering. Hence the dawn/dusk racing times and yellowish colors. Very standard design trick for games. It's a tradeoff. But it can get a little glaring to drive into the sun half the time. PS - I didn't see anything strange about the sun movement - try driving into the sun and see how it moves around when you're following a gradual curve... (again to reviewers).
- cars honestly do sometimes take a while to appear in front of you, no doubt a technical trade-off but one that I wish they could have avoided... it doubt it's a bug as much as a limitation based on what they were trying to do. But I don't think it was a wise move - I'd rather see badly rendered cars in the distance that improve as they get closer than well rendered cars appearing out of nowhere... but at the speeds we're racing it's understandable and not that much of a problem so far for me
- on other platforms you can pay real money to upgrade your car. that's just lame and shouldn't have been done. I'm happy that feature doesn't seem to be in the wii version (at least I haven't come across it yet)
- the police have suddenly started becoming too difficult for me as I advance through the game. Maybe I suck at avoiding them... I don't know, but MAN they're hard to escape now, earlier in the game they weren't bad at all. Maybe Most Wanted was like that toward the end too, I don't know, I never finished that game...
- some framerate issues (on the other consoles, Wii is fine), haven't seen that on my wii that I can recall... EA must be pushing the limits of the consoles with this game (or just has some bad code in there LoL)

Summary: great game, underappreciated by reviewers so far, the graphics look to me better than in most wanted (I played both back and forth to come to that conclusion) and are much better than in prostreet (due to prostreets dull worlds, not the rendering engine). Carbon had some great graphics sometimes but was a strange game to control, I'd say this is going back to what Carbon was trying to do and doing it better. It truly is the best of carbon, most wanted and prostreet plus a bit of underground2 thrown in for good measure.

A couple of imho minor runtime issues, some average acting and empty-ish roads don't make it a bad game to me, in fact it's a more fun racing game than most wanted was (open roads are WAY more fun), the AI is just right and the busy freeway sections make up for that if you want it, not to mention fantastic cop chases!

PS: other cars on the road are modeled better than I recall seeing before in NFS, up close they look great, and you don't get that annoying green station wagon appearing in 30 different parts of town at the same time like you did in Most Wanted LoL. And the real damage modelling is great, even better than in Pro Street. ReallyUndercover is like Carbon without drifting, Prostreet on the streets, Most Wanted with updated graphics/gameplay,underground with more open worlds, better sounds, better graphics and less frustrating crash situations.


If you own a wii this is the best racing game there is. Get it.

Other platforms? maybe stick with your burnout or whatever...

ReallyUndercover is like Carbon without drifting, Prostreet on the streets, Most Wanted with updated graphics/gameplay,underground with more open worlds, better sounds, better graphics and less frustrating crash situations.





If you own a wii this is the best racing game there is. Get it.
