Mario Party 8 - multiplayer impressions

Wii Feature | Mario Party 8

There's been a new Mario Party game every year since the series' introduction in 1999. Well, there was a new one every year until 2006, when no new Party was held. Has a whole year away from the virtual board game been enough time to rekindle the world's interest? Do Wii controls warrant another look for people who've spent the past eight years bashing the A and B buttons to steal other players' coins and stars? We nabbed a giant TV and four eager editors to see how Mario's latest party stacks ...

Gamers Gone Wrong

Wii Feature | Wii

Gamers play games, right? You wouldn't think so based on the links you see around the web. We love cute cakes, Katamari caps and gaming graffiti as much as the next Web 2.0 game-hipster, but between the arts and crafts show and the incessant discussions, we're beginning to wonder if anyone actually plays games anymore! Take a look at some of the trends that make us wonder if gamers have veered off ...

Time traveling with Link

Wii Feature | Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess

Mention Link today and most people will envisage the young wolf boy that inhabits Twilight Princess complete with his signature sword, shield and green tunic. And while theres no denying that this is certainly the best Link has ever looked, hes come along way since he first graced our consoles way back in 1986. Of course it comes as no surprise that Link has taken on a wealth of different looks over his years of adventuring and exploring. He began his adventures as a tiny sprite in The Legend ...

PlayStation lost Brazil the World Cup!

Wii Feature | Wii

Video games are widely regarded as one of the bad guys. Indeed, if our sedentary pastime isn't being framed for a murder, massacre or some other heinous act against humanity, then it's being scolded for fostering a pasty-faced generation of lazy, overweight misfits. That can't drive. Stories of how videogames are corrupting the innocent and tainting childhoods are commonplace. Two such examples presented themselves just last week - a student's cannabis rampage was likened to Xbox 360 ...

The Top 7... in-game in-jokes

Wii Feature | Wii

Inside gags, for better or worse, are a staple of videogames, whether they're in the form of hidden characters, outright parody of the competition or just another tired reference to Monty Python and the Holy Grail snuck in by a translator. If you're not in the know, most of them will shoot right over your head. If you are, they can range from dull to chuckle-worthy, but either way you'll feel a tiny surge of pride for picking up on them. And then there are the geeky little references that are ...

The best game cameos ever

Wii Feature | Wii

Surprises can be great. But surprise appearances from people or characters we actually care about are better. That's why you won't find the GTA Phil Collins cameo on this list - it was cool (kinda) to see the former Genesis frontman in a GTA game, but at the end of the day, it was... well, Phil Collins. No, we've put together a list of only the best, most achingly cool guest appearances in games of recent times. See them all in the video below then click on through to find out how to get them ...

The Video Zone - Episode 4

Wii Feature | Wii

We're well aware that most of your are reading our site when you should be working, or studying for your finals. And we encourage that. Because in the same diversionary spirit, we've put aside our tireless Halo 3 and Sony Gamer's Day coverage to scrounge the depths of the internet to find what's truly important: Wacky Vidz. Take a look below and embrace the weirdness. Niagara PS3 death We know Genji was bad, but this is just ridiculous. Watch in horror as this “comedy” duo ...

Need for Speed retrospective

Wii Feature | Wii

Need for Speed has been going strong for well over a decade, especially since finding mass popularity on PS2. Youre no doubt familiar with the pimped-out, hip-hopping, street-savvy Need for Speed games of today, but do you remember it before it turned cool? There was a time when modding only went as far choosing manual or automatic gears. Theres something special in each of the NFS games on PlayStation 2, so were going to take you on a little trip of the Need for Speed universe. You might not ...

The Top 7... games so bad they had to add breasts

Wii Feature | Wii

An overwhelming majority of gamers are male, so it makes perfect sense for every marketing team in the world to target their software at young guys. And what do all men ages 18 to one zillion love? Girls, gore and big loud machines. If they could make a game about a firefighting bikini squad that hunts down zombies in a decked-out sex/fire truck, world peace would be declared. But until that day, we have to settle with regular old T & A. Developers are well aware of this, so occasionally ...

Objects of Gaming Hate

Wii Feature | Wii

Weve been slamming just about every hate-worthy topic in the gaming industry this week from the YouTube idiots to the never ending console wars. But weve still got a lot of pet peeves up our sleeves. In fact, we still need to get a few things off our chest by venting our frustrations regarding our most loathed objects of hate. Some of them are people: rude boys lurking in team-based shooters out there in cyberspace. Some are more tangible, like the Red Ring of Death that drills a hole through ...
