Monster 4x4 World Circuit

Wii Review

Not much has changed since Monster 4x4 World Circuit appeared on last generation consoles. It's still saddled with weak track design, dopey opponents, and flaming oil barrels that inexplicably follow targets around like lost puppies. Still, Ubisoft wisely scrapped the original, horribly unresponsive control system, and replaced it with surprisingly well done motion sensitivity for the Wii release. Included is a plastic steering wheel that snaps together easily enough and holds your Wii Remote ...

Monster Trux: Offroad

Wii Review

Wii - Monster Trux: Offroad - Monster Trux: Offroad

Regardless of our own personal feelings about the proper use of monster trucks, Bold Games has conjured up Monster Trux: Offroad for Wii - a straightforward racer that contains about as much quality content as its moniker has class and respectability - that is, not much at all. Its rough-and-tumble racing experience might at first be likened to Nintendo's own Excite Truck, but with few opportunities for air, it's mostly just a low-key ...

Mortal Kombat: Armageddon

Wii Review

Up, down, towards, away, A, down, away, B, A, B. Right now youre either nodding your head, thinking “thats what Im talking about” or youre quivering nervously, waiting for the bad GamesRadar man to stop. To the hardened Kombaters there is no greater thrill than to finger-dance opponents to their deaths with button presses; digit dexterity seeing icy-blasts ripping through human flesh and massive hats flung around with great abandon. To others there's nothing worse - a cruel hurdle ...

MX vs ATV Untamed

Wii Review

Dec 17, 2007 Youll probably often hear MX compared to Motorstorm, with both offering a similarly comprehensive vehicle set and both flinging mud about the place like a pig in the poo pond. But where Motorstorm is among the most beautiful racers ever made, MX is as plain as a bowling shoe and - inexplicably - has unrefined controls that dont hold a candle to its slightly better-looking versions on PS3 and 360. While its true the game is throwing around impressive physics and incidental ...

My Pokemon Ranch - WiiWare

Wii Review

Wii - My Pokemon Ranch - WiiWare - My Pokemon Ranch - WiiWare

We often find ourselves staring mournfully at our 2D Pokemon in Diamond and Pearl, wishing they’d sprout that third dimension. So imagine our beaming faces as My Pokemon Ranch loaded up. Here, as in the GameCube’s Pokemon Box, is a chance to free your ’Mon from the confines of a DS cart and let them loose on Wii, all under the watchful eye of Ranch owner Hayley ...

MySims

Wii Review

Sept 18, 2007 Despite the many PC versions being among the most successful games ever made, we have to confess our utter indifference to them. Theyve cropped up on Gamecube in the past, and weve always had difficulty finding anyone who wants to review them, such is their grinding unsuitability for console platforms and mouseless controllers. Not even the prospect of bricking up a Sims bedroom door and waiting for him to expire in squalid conditions ever gave us much genuine enthusiasm for the ...

Myth Makers: Orbs of Doom

Wii Review

Wii - Myth Makers: Orbs of Doom - Myth Makers: Orbs of Doom

We would not be surprised if Myth Makers: Orbs of Doom came about in a board meeting brainstorming session, where someone said, “Okay, how can we trick children into shelling out twenty bucks, and then proceed to make them cry and throw their remote into the wall?” Data Design Interactive specializes in gaming trash designed to sneak money from unsuspecting wallets with the least effort invested in art, sound, programming, design, ...
