Tony Hawk's Proving Ground

Wii Review

Oct 17, 2007 Proving Ground is an almost obscenely plump package. In a bid to outdo itself and fresh-faced rival Skate, Neversoft has jammed its latest game with so much content that you expect to hear distant groaning when holding the disc up to your ear. The first thing we noted, though, was what seemed like an oversight - there's no "free play" option, no chance to dive straight into the three-city-wide game world to just mess around. No, you'll have play the full-blown Career mode before ...

Top Spin 3

Wii Review

From Rockstar to Sega superstars, we’ve seen our share of racquet games on Wii that haven’t offered any significant advance - in terms of motion controls - from the tennis freebie bundled with the console. For one reason or another, we’re still waiting to see if Wii Sports is actually as good as it’s going to get. Nobody else has really gotten the hang of what we always thought would be the most obvious sport on ...

Transformers: The Game

Wii Review

The second-biggest sucker in the universe is a character in the shabby, movie-based action smasher, Transformers: The Game - it's the main character's dad. The transformer Bumblebee has been ordered to protect an Earth boy named Sam - because they want his grandfather's eyeglasses (honest, we're not making this up) - on the very day that Sam's dad has promised to buy him a car. So, Bumblebee sneaks into the used car lot and somehow brainwashes the kid and dad into deciding he's the best car ...

Trauma Center: New Blood

Wii Review

Nov 20, 2007 Blood. Malpractice suits. Nearly a decade of book leanrnin'. Most of us don't have what it takes to brave Med school, much less dig sharp instruments into our fellow man. So when last year's Trauma Center hit the Wii, we finally learned for ourselves... how to save a life. Okay, it's just a game, but damned if slicing incisions, stitching wounds, and firing lasers at polyps didn't make for one of the most fun, and perfectly suited, experiences for Nintendo's new ...

Trauma Center: Second Opinion

Wii Review

What kid didn't love Operation? You know, the battery-powered board game in which you used tweezers to yank vital bones and organs from some poor schlub with bad hair and a light-up nose? What a great game. And Trauma Center: Second Opinion is the super-powered, seven-headed, genetically mutated video evolution of that game. It's niche-y and unique and a little gory and it isn't going to be easy to find. But find it anyway, because it's also the Wii's second must-have game (Zelda being the ...

TV Show King - WiiWare

Wii Review

Wii - TV Show King - WiiWare - TV Show King - WiiWare

We can’t be alone in thinking that playing quiz games on your own is more pointless than Paris Hilton. Whether it’s a digital version of Trivial Pursuit or a made-for-consoles title such as PS2’s Buzz!, there’s zero satisfaction or fun to be had pitting your wits against a bunch of AI contestants. This is as true for TV Show King as any other quiz ’em up. However, when the intended number of players is all flesh ...
