The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian

Wii Preview | The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian

The Chronicles of Narnia books remain high on their pedestal of nostalgic childhood memories; the movies, perhaps a bit less so. Fans of either probably hanker for the ability to frolic through the Narnian fields equally, and so the games keep coming.In case you aren’t familiar with the story behind the second chapter known as Prince Caspian, or need a refresher, it begins one Earth year after the events from the first book/movie. ...

Wii Preview | WWE SmackDown! vs Raw 2009

Straight from WrestleMania XXIV weekend in Orlando, Fla., comes the unveiling of wrasslin’ sim WWE SmackDown! vs RAW 2009. Set for release this fall on every system under the sun, the game promises more than just an increased polygon count and expanded roster. Oh no, this year’s version brings an incredible overhaul and revision of our favorite wrestling franchise, from wrestler AI to tag-team and online modes. We had a chance to ...

FaceBreaker

Wii Preview | FaceBreaker

Peter Moore used to lead the line at Microsoft’s games division; before that he worked at Sega and helped launch the Dreamcast. Why the walk through Moore’s resume? Because he moved to EA last year and FaceBreaker is the first sign of where he feels the publisher’s been going wrong. FaceBreaker aims to take the core gameplay of Fight Night Round 3 and push it through a cartoon filter, injecting arcade nonsense into the genre not ...

Guitar Hero: Aerosmith - 10 songs revealed

Wii Preview | Guitar Hero: Aerosmith

If you need us to paint you a picture of what playing Guitar Hero: Aerosmith feels like, get up, take a step outside of your cave and ask the first person you see if they’ve ever heard of this thing called Guitar Hero. They’ll probably think you’re a freak, which would serve you right for taking us too seriously. But seriously, the title says it all. It’s Guitar Hero with lots and lots of Aerosmith songs. ...

Death Jr. II: Root of Evil - hands-on

Wii Preview | Death, Jr. II: Root of Evil

We thought Death Jr. II: Root of Evil was a mixed bag when it first released on the PSP in 2006. It was packed with personality thanks to its kooky Tim Burton-esque character designs and quirky humor. However, it also gave us a bit of deja vu - in the bad way - with its rough controls and tons of running and jumping that felt too familiar for its own good.But publisher, Eidos’ Matt Dahlgren thinks that Death Jr. II was actually meant to ...

Review: Mario Kart Wii [import]

Wii Preview | Mario Kart Wii

The brothers Mario clash on the racetrack. As their karts grind together, the combined mach speed threatens to tear the lip warmers from their very faces. The scene seethes with venom - never has Nintendo dredged up such ferocious rivalry. As an opening FMV? It’s a killer. As an indicator of the day at the races to follow? They’re being a little liberal with the truth.Entering our first race - Luigi’s Circuit in Mario’s ...

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. ...

Major Minor's Majestic March

Wii Preview | Major Minor's Majestic March

Having produced Parappa the Rapper, the game that effectively defined the rhythm action genre on consoles, Japanese musician Masaya Matsuura and his company Nana-On-Sha have a well deserved reputation for innovative music titles. They also did the excellent Vib Ribbon and its equally unique, sadly Japan-only follow-ups Vib Ripple and Mojib Ribbon, so news of their first Wii game is guaranteed to make us prick up our ears. Major Minor’s ...

de Blob

Wii Preview | de Blob

After five minutes of de Blob, your TV screen will resemble the aftermath of a John Woo firefight in the Art Attack studio. Playing as a dull grey blob (de Blob), you’re never spawned more than a remote flick away from a paint canister; lock on with Z, flick and you’ll dive through it, coating yourself in paint. Here’s where the mess begins… Smacking against monochrome buildings and the bleached trees of Chroma city ...

Mushroom Men: The Spore Wars - first look

Wii Preview | Mushroom Men

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, ...
