Wii Preview | MLB Power Pros
Sept 24, 2007 Who needs realistic player models with motion-captured batting stances when you can have cute and cuddly sluggers with facial expressions that mirror their real-life counterparts? Wii Sports Baseball proved that you can pick up and play a sports game without having to fret over hyper-real 3D modeled sweat, yet left ballpark fans wanting more in the way of depth. Good thing Konami and 2K Sports are importing MLB Power Pros, based on the popular best-selling and long-running series ...

Wii Preview | Monster 4x4 World Circuit
If you're looking for even the slightest bit of realism in your Wii racing, you should check out publisher Ubisoft's other launch game, GT Pro Series. For those who couldn't give a rip what kind of tires are smearing through layers of dirt and mud, there's Monster 4x4 World Circuit - and just like its sports car cousin, this one comes with a free plastic wheel attachment for the Wii remote. Everything about Monster is designed for the widest possible audience. Pick your oversized ride ...

Wii Preview | Mortal Kombat: Armageddon
Hey all you GamesRadar-reading moms! How many times have your kids begged you to buy them that new hot game? Even after you dumped a months worth of grocery money on that white plastic box called a Wii and something called a Zelda, they never stop pleading for stuff. And think of how much more youll have to buy - cars, clothes, college… And suddenly you fantasize about stabbing the Wiimote through the necks of those small, squeaking product-whores. And if you haven't, trust us that we ...

Wii Preview | Mortal Kombat: Armageddon
After more than 15 years of flesh-tearing, gut-ripping, casually dismembering fighting action, the Mortal Kombat series is taking a final bow of sorts with Armageddon. Its plot is simple; too many tournaments in too short a time is threatening the very fabric of reality. Thus, an otherworldly demigod hatches a clever plan: hell trick the various kombatants into a final, bloody brawl for it all, with the power of the fiery monster Blaze as the ...

Wii Preview | Mushroom Men
Wii - Mushroom Men - Developer interview - Mushroom Men

Mushroom Men is Red Fly Studio’s first full game, but the team has plenty of previous experience working for the likes of Ion Storm (Deus Ex), Retro Studios (Metroid) and Terminal Reality (Bloodrayne). We traveled all the way to the Mushroom Kingdom (well, Austin, Texas anyway) to have words with Dan Borth, CEO and Creative Director at Red Fly.

So you’re currently working on Mushroom Men on the Wii and DS, and the ...

Wii Preview | Mushroom Men
Wii - Mushroom Men - Mushroom Men: The Spore Wars - first look Although the DS Mushroom Men game will arrive some months before the Wii edition, its developers assured us you don’t have to play the portable prequel to enjoy Mushroom Men: Rise of the Fungi. Unlike the DS edition and its uniquely strategic approach to side-scrolling action, on the Wii you'll take control of a single fungal hero named Pax. It seems a comet has crashed into earth and played havoc with the Earth’s flora and fauna, ...

Wii Preview | MX vs ATV Untamed
Nov 9, 2007 Let's pop the old wank hat on for a second and say that MX vs ATV Untamed is a game "built for the enthusiast but is no less accessible to the casual racing fan." What we mean in norm-speak is that it's a game made by bike nerds for bike nerds but is still a bit of fun for us ...

Wii Preview | MX vs ATV Untamed
Oct 5, 2007 Games don't have feelings, but try telling that to the Wii version of offroader MX vs. ATV: Untamed, which is being treated with the level of respect that would reduce red-headed stepchildren the world over to tears. Showing their love to prettier 360 and PS3 versions, long-time series developer Rainbow palmed off the Wiimote to Incinerator Games (known for the Wii version of... Cars: The Videogame) faster than Carl Lewis would get rid of a booger-covered baton in the 100 meter ...

Wii Preview | My Pokemon Ranch - WiiWare
Wii - My Pokemon Ranch - WiiWare - Everyone's Pokemon Ranch - hands-on

Ever since Everyone's Pokemon Ranch was announced, we've had a lot of questions. Mainly, is it actually a game? Or does it just let you view your Pokemon in 3D and not much else? Well, we've downloaded the Japanese release (with an imported Japanese Wii) and have been tinkering with it since it became available last week. As we all knew, you can upload your Diamond/Pearl Pokemon onto Pokemon Ranch and interact with them in an N64-esque ...

Wii Preview | MySims
Ready for Animal Crossing for the Wii? Tough. It doesn't exist yet. What does exist, however, is the equally adorable MySims, which marries the gameplay of the beloved PC games with cute-as-a-button anime presentation that looks incredibly at home on the Wii. We were instantly interested and happily surprised by the game's depth. In fact, we're really surprised at how much the game retains from its big sister. Though the graphics have been simplified, everything from the mouse-like interface ...
