Wii - Safecracker - Safecracker

Ever since they noticed that the Wii remote is good at pointing and clicking, The Adventure Company have been determined to shovel as many lame PC ports as possible into our game shops. The latest, Safecracker, is precisely the sort of flat, pre-rendered rubbish we’re used to, but with some surprisingly hardcore puzzling squished on top. ...

Wii - Sam & Max Season One Wii - Sam & Max Season One

Considering that the last time Sam and Max appeared in a full game computers were steam-powered and/or made from mammoth pelt, it’s a little funny to see them adventuring away so happily on the thoroughly modern Wii. Not that it isn’t an obvious match: a point and click adventure on a console made to point and click. ...

Wii - Samba De Amigo Wii - Samba De Amigo Wii

Man alive, does Samba De Amigo seem fun. From the gorgeous full-motion video opener to the Borat sound-a-like that yelps over the menus, there are few experiences as welcoming on Wii. ...

Wii - Samurai Shodown Anthology - Samurai Shodown Anthology

The great trouble with a lot of SNK games is that due to the exorbitant cost of the Neo Geo consoles and cartridges, pretty much no one got a chance to play them when they first came out. It’s only now, through downloads and retro compilations like this one, that many of us are getting our first taste – and for many titles (such as the uber-bland King of Fighters) it’s just come a little bit too late. ...

Jan 15, 2008 Samurai Warriors Katana is finally here, and after several so-so earlier titles, it pretty much has the ‘remote as sword field to itself. In Campaign mode this is basically Time Crisis with a sword. This is a very good thing. Relentlessly on-rails fighting can get boring, but Katana mixes up the missions in imaginative ways - youll have to creep through forests filled with archers, spotting them before they can shoot you in the back, hide behind fences and shoot onrushing ...

Last year, Scarface: The World Is Yours caught just about everyone by surprise. It turned out to be a damn good game, sold like crazy (having moved over two million PS2 and Xbox copies to date), and set a world record for the most profanity and drug trafficking in video game history. Continuing with the didnt-see-that-coming approach, Vivendi has now released the hyperviolent and decidedly non-family-friendly game on the happiest console on the planet – Nintendos ...

Start talking about mecha and most people will probably picture a heaving Islamic mass pilgrimage, as opposed to hulking great mechanical exoskeletons doing battle in a futuristic landscape. You see, to the uninitiated there are few things less welcoming than Gundam - a writhing mass of franchises and back-story that refuses to stop for breath and explain itself. All of which makes Scad Hammer s accessibility such a pleasant ...

Wii - Sega Bass Fishing [2008] - Sega Bass Fishing If any game can convert a non-fisherman into someone who actually uses words like Jointed Shad Rap, Hula Popper and Buzzbait, it's the action-packed arcadery of the Sega Bass Fishing series. It doesn't make you hunt down the fish, and when you find them, they're ravenous. What does that leave? Action, mostly.While most fishing games make you spend huge amounts of time seeking out the fish, Sega Bass Fishing spreads them three layers thick just ...

Wii - Sega Superstars Tennis - Sega Superstars Tennis The best part of this game is Superstars mode, which is a selection of minigames, challenges and tournaments based around old-school Sega hits such as Space Channel 5, Golden Axe, Virtua Cop, Monkey Ball, Out Run, After Burner and Alex Kidd. You’ll either play on courts designed to look like environments from the games or you’ll unlock one of the characters in a head-to-head contest. Minigames include knocking down waves of zombies ...

Wii - Sexy Poker - Sexy Poker

Appropriately, you can play Sexy Poker one-handed. We used the spare hand to repeatedly punch ourselves in the head, but you can use it however you wish. The fact that this is an excruciatingly awful and embarrassing game is not entirely surprising – anything with the word ‘sexy’ in the title usually is – but it even manages to get the ‘poker’ bit wrong. ...
