This is a great product! I know people who have both the Wii Active and the Wii Fit, and they say the Wii Active is better. I've been using this "game" for about 2 weeks and I am still on low intensity. It really works you out! Sometimes it can be frustrating when the remotes aren't correcly sensed, but for the most part, this isn't an issue. The only thing I would change about this product... more

October 29, 2009

- Two diverse games let you experience the criminal lowlife and the glamorous high-life of Liberty City like never before.
When Grand Theft Auto IV was originally released, it was met with universal praise from everyone (atleast who counts - random yahoos on the internet don't count). If you do some research, you'll see that it scores perfectly from numerous editorial bodies of various legitimacy. There was also the known fact that Microsoft had paid Rockstar a nice little sum -- I'll call it a bribe offhandedly -- to... more

Okay, this is a great workout and could have been a great idea if it were not for the annoying thigh strap (which holds the nunchuck) I had to keep stopping and pulling the dang thing back up on my thigh as it repeatedly keeps sliding down.. and also the nunchuck is hard to insert back in the holster, which is required to take in and out again and again. If it were not for these unavoidable hassles... more

| 5. Halo 3 |
|
From: Microsoft
September 25, 2007
Features:- Expands on the franchise and adds a wealth of technical and gameplay advancements
- Unparalleled first-person shooter experience and the most compelling story of the trilogy
- Builds upon the social multiplayer experience and innovative, evolving, online gameplay of Halo 2
- Loaded with high-definition visuals, enhanced AI, an advanced lighting engine, new weapons, characters, and challenges
Let me begin by saying that I have bought and played both Halo C.E. and Halo 2 for more than my fair share of hours, and I endeavor to explain Halo 3 to someone who is familiar with the previous games. Like other reviews have stated, the first Halo set a high bar for the series, and it is hard to recapture the feeling the player gets when first experiencing a new world like that of Halo. That said... more

- A song list of more than 40 Beatles hits included with the game, as well as additional DLC to follow via your Wii's Internet connection.
- The first music game to offer harmonies (3-part) as part of gameplay, challenging players to recreate The Beatles¿ vocal blend and facilitated by the game's three mic support.
It's all been said so far on how cool this game is as far as each song being a rock video in itself. For me it's the perfect blend of nostalgia and challenge. If you've ever dreamed of jamming with the Fabs, you can't get much closer than this. I define these type of games as a combination of playing "air guitar" and the real thing (somewhat). I think some musicians would agree than although playing... more
