E3 07: Boogie - hands-on

Wii Preview | Boogie

Boogie cleverly blends rhythm with singing (into the specially-made Wii USB microphone) - but it also gives the player the option to do one or the other. So anyone who makes Jordans voice sound like that of an angel (with auto-tune turned off) neednt write this off as a wasted exercise. Theres a Karaoke and Dance mode, plus Story, which lets you play through the unique stories of the games five characters doing a combination of ...

Boogie - Hands-on

Wii Preview | Boogie

Weve got to be honest: in the past, we werent too sure about Boogie. Its not that we dont like dancing games; we GR folk harbor no ill will toward exercise and love ourselves some Dance, Dance Revolution. The thing is, we were skeptical about the appeal of a dancing game in which the player wasnt actually... you know... dancing. Or even pretend ...

Boom Blox

Wii Preview | Boom Blox

Roughly translated, the name Spielberg means ‘play mountain’. This is why, allegedly, he opens the Indiana Jones films with a mountain shot, and why we have faith in his co-developed Boom Blox. How could someone with ‘play’ in their name not ‘get’ the Wii? Unveiled at E3, this was a mess - a puzzle-Jenga light on purpose and heavy on wonky physics, but that has all changed in this new and improved Boom Blox. ...

Bully: Scholarship Edition - hands-on

Wii Preview | Bully: Scholarship Edition

Bully was released near the tail end of the PS2's major releases, so maybe you didn't have a chance to play the game back in 2006 - like, if you sent your PS2 off to Antarctica on a ceremonial burning raft on PS3 launch day. Whether you played or not, the game was great, and messing around with the 360 and Wii versions, Bully: Scholarship Edition, which are due out March 4, reaffirmed that the game is on track to be as good as the original ...

Bully: Scholarship Edition - first look

Wii Preview | Bully: Scholarship Edition

Jan 16, 2008 For a while there, Bully was 2006's most controversial game - but once people found out it was a relatively tame, bloodless schoolyard romp instead of a teen murder simulator, interest seemed to fizzle. Which is a shame, really, because Bully's compelling story and free-roaming, prank-and-beatdown-focused action made it one of the best games released that year. If you missed it the first time, you'll get a second chance at the game this March, when Bully: Scholarship Edition hits ...

Bust-A-Move Bash

Wii Preview | Bust-A-Move Bash!

It seems puzzle games are being given a new lease of life by the Wiis wonder-wand. With blobby tilt-fest Mercury Meltdown Revolution leaping from the PSP to the Wii with all the unbridled excitement of a hyperactive puppy, Bust-A-Move follows suit, enlivened by motion-sensitive ...
