These consoles are fake!
Weird... a couple of the PSP fakes look much better than the actual PSPgo!! On second thought, no - it's not weird at all.

Games that shot themselves in the foot
I really don't know why NMH is held at such a high regard. Granted the presentation is outstanding, Travis is among the best characters in recent games history and the extreme quirkiness is unmatched ... but gameplay wise it just sucks! The levels are repetitive and uninspired; the quasi-open world only gets in the way; collecting money for the assassination missions are a chore; the actual story is as boring as it gets... I never finished it and I don't think I'll ever get back to it. And frankly I don't know what's with the bad Disaster press - the game is totally competent and is partly what I expected (but never got) from Alone in the Dark!

Good article!

There's one game that made me scream in my sleep - Manhunt 2. To be more precise it was a hacked version of the game where none of the kills were censored. The Wii controls helped the immersion a lot (despite all the bugs and shortcommings)... it kinda made ME feel like a hunted psycho. Weird stuff!

Nice list!!

I still prefer Sonic's palm trees on Megadrive over any piece of 3D object in the newer Sonic games! The number of parallax layers was another thing that made the first four Sonic games quite unique.

Speaking of trees - Virtua Racing (among others) had polygon trees way back in the 90's and GT5 trees are still a couple of crossed sprites... and the game is boring enough and gives you time to inspect them one by one as you pass by (that is if you're not drooling over your hyper-realistic car's back all the time)

Got it finally!! For everyone who has trouble with the controls here's a tip:

Do NOT SHAKE the wiimote up! Instead do a stabbing motion (pointing up). That's the only way I found that doesn't confuse the game when you're doing rapid motion.

The stabbing also works perfect for mid and low circles but isn't much needed then as these work with shaking most of the time. Yet this is the only move I found that never gets confused by the game.

Enjoy!

OK, any of you guys who claim the controls work, care to explain how do you do it? For example how do you manage to move fast from middle to top position and shake... and get the game to detect it every time?

BTW 10 hours of learning curve for a casual, and fun rhythm game is far from acceptable!! Hey, Guitar Hero takes less time to get used to!
