My Fitness Coach (Wii)

So I rented My Fitness Coach for the Wii thinking it would use the Balance Board. Apparently the folks at Ubisoft are too cool for the Balance Board because it does not. I did try it out for a little bit and I love all the options it has, but I don’t know how long […]

I’ve been looking for Wii games to try out since I own only 3 Wii games currently and I’d like to get a little use our of this system. So, I rented Geometry Wars: Galaxies since Geometry Wars Retro Evolved is one of the most popular Xbox Live Arcade games that has been released. I’m […]

Guitar Hero: World Tour Impressions

I rented Guitar Hero: World Tour over the long weekend last week and played through the guitar campaign, a big chunk of the bass campaign, and a little of the drums. My wife checked out the vocals for a bit and we tried a little online. I’m probably expecting to much after playing Rock Band […]

Jillian Michael’s Fitness Ultimatum 2009 Review

I took a departure from Wii Fit recently and tried Jillian Michael’s Fitness Ultimatum 2009. What a pile of crap. You can read my full review here, but it boils down to this. It pretty much stinks, but it could be worse I guess.

Call of Duty: World at War Beta Impressions

I got a Beta Key today for the Call of Duty: World at War beta. So, I gave it a try this afternoon. I found it to be pretty much how I remembered Call of Duty 4. I did not play a lot of the multiplayer in Call of Duty 4. It is too run-n-gun […]

I Give Up On Supreme Commander

I tried playing it some more, but the crashing at the end of missions finally pissed me off to much. It takes too long to save and load to have to replay part of the level each time you complete a campaign mission. In addition to the freezing/crashing the camera issues have put me over […]

SoulCalibur IV First Impressions

I don’ play a lot of fighting games because I’m not very good at them, but I did rent SoulCalibur IV. I played a lot of SoulCalibur on the Dreamcast back in the day, and I could not pass up the chance to play Yoda. I had a firend over and we played for a […]

Supreme Commander First Impressions

I started playing Supreme Commander this weekend. It is a very traditional RTS with a lot of micro-management. I am enjoying it for the most part, but it is quirky about saving. I started playing the campaign and found that the missions are very long. Like between 1 and 2 hours per mission. I don’t […]

Guitar Hero: Aerosmith First Impressions

I decided to rent Guitar Hero: Aerosmith since I already have the guitars and I heard the achievements are stackable so I no longer have play on every difficulty setting to get all the achievements. Finally, I can play though on Hard and get the Easy and Medium achievements as well. After loading the game […]
