worse than the God Hand flap (now old news) was the 2.0 they handed to that Football Manager game, or the fact that it was that the reviewer for the 360 version of Sonic Unleashed didn't even finish the game

I just like arguing with tmac. Cats chase mice. Tmac bashes wii. I refute tmac.

I'll buy Platinum if only because Nintendo finally put out the Secret Key Mystery Gift over WiFi.

Also of note is that Platinum's release is a week after my St. Patty's Day birthday.

Guys:

I would like to take this moment to remind you that Wiis are selling like hotcakes on eBay right now.

Let's get hypothetical for a moment:

You have a Wii.
You don't have a 360.

Okay, now you can pop that Wii and all your Wii 'games' on there and sell it for like 400 bones. You can take that pile of cash, go to a game store and buy a 360 Pro and a few games and you can actually have something to look forward to for next year. And think of all the great games from 07 and 08 you could enjoy as well!

My gamertag is xJERKFACEx. I'll be waiting to shoot the shit out of some zombies with you.

See, this is when the wii bashing just becomes the height of arrogance and unacceptability. To dictate to other people what their tastes should be, as opposed to what their tastes are, is the height of conceit

If i traded my Wii and all my games right now for a 360, where would i be? Online play? It's rather low on my priorities. The best games? All subjective. Yes they have better production values, but they certainly don't connect with me, as i prefer games of simple mechanics and hidden depth.

And i'm only calling this out because you, specifically, are a repeat offender for this horrendous display. Despicable

Mirror's Edge, man. Just saying.

..Or Viva Pinata.
..Or Castle Crashers.
..Or Age of Booty.
..Or Geo Wars 2.
..Or Sonic Unleashed (If you're into SEGA games.)
..Or Bionic Commando Rearmed.
..Or Beautiful Katamari.

And I know there's more. Those are all simple games with hidden depth that are enjoyable as Hell. Not to even mention the NXE adds wii-like charm to the 360 interface and even more functionality that Nintendo just isn't going for right now. And with Microsoft making such strong moves towards providing that family-type Wii fun to their system, there is only more of this kind of gaming to be provided. It's not all just shooters.

It's just real games. Not crappy rehashes.

Besides.. all the brown and grey shooters are much better than the Wii haters might like to think. : )

Their idea of it is bundling an arcade version with Kung-Fu Panda.

Are you fucking serious to think they're making it any better than what Nintendo's doing?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH *breathes* HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAAHA

you gotta love a man with a sense of humor....wait, you were serious? I can give you 1 video that shows at least 6 games that I'm looking forward to (whether or not they get released in America might be an issue), whats got you stoked? Halo Wars? Halo 3:OMFG?

1. 5 hours long AT THE MOST
2. Nothing I can't get on DS, or I can buy Animal Crossing and get a deeper experience. Or even Endless Ocean
3. I'll wait for the patch
4. not really my kind of game
5. shit, you got me there
6. Wii versions better, just saying. Also, SEGA is almost all Wii/DS 2009 with SatBK, HotD, Madworld, and The Conduit and Phantasy Star
7. whats this? A REHASH? I thought it was Nintendo's job to make the same game multiple times. Seriously though, I still have the NES game
8. Never did like Katamari, doubt this game will change my mind

"And with Microsoft making such strong moves towards providing that family-type Wii fun to their system, there is only more of this kind of gaming to be provided. It's not all just shooters."

yes, Your in the Movies and Lips are a lot better than Endless Ocean, Animal Crossing, Mario & Sonic, Rayman Raving Rabbids, etc. Yep, those 2 games leave all those games in the dust

It saddens me that everyone already forgot about Moon :(

And for one will only be picking up Platinum and Moon, and maybe renting MadWorld
