Overview

Skully B.'s likes are shattered, one by one.

SKULLB: Wow, we're already off to a good start. RAview indeed.

On the strange, near pointless holiday we people call "Christmas"

SKULLB: "The birthday of Jesus? P'shaw, I say!"

I was fortunate ebough to be getting a Nintendo Wii from my distant family members.

SKULLB: "Alright, Paul, if this will keep him away from us, we'll spend the hours in line!"

Now, I was rather confused as earlier that day I'd rummaged through my stocking to be finding Prince of Persia and Gears of War two.

SKULLB: Video games as stocking stuffers?! Christ, child!

JESUS: Somebody called?

I also got a line-up of mediocre games in Wii sports, Bully Scholarship and House of the Dead.

SKULLB: Bully is not mediocre. You shut up.

Seeing as Bully and House of the dead a WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY to mediocre,

SKULLB: Way to mediocre, video games! You guys need to shape up.

the former nearly reducing me to tears,

SKULLB: "THIS STANDARD LAUNCH TITLE IS BULL"

I'm just gonna stay with Wii sports and a recent addiotion to "games I have" in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

Starting with Wii Sports, the game seemed to be created specifically to show of all the new capibilities of the wii:

SKULLB: Which is entirely what a launch title is for.

Motion sensing, nunchuck, Mii, bad graphics, repetitiveness and arm strain.

SKULLB: "IF YOU DON'T HAVE PERFECT GRAPHICS AND GUNS THEN IT'S NOT WORTH MY TIME >:("

The rules are simple: you get given a a stick

SKULLB: IA IA STICK

and a

SKULLB: Finger off the "A" key, kiddo.

have to wiggle it around to simulate various sports, ideally, tennis, baseball, bowling, boxing and golf.

SKULLB: Wow, it's almost like most of those games are actually played with long rods!

Despite the simpleness of the game it still insists on teslling you how to do it, you think we would've got it by now nintendo.

SKULLB: "DON'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO I'M ELEVEN" or however old you are.

Simarlarly,

SKULLB: pfff hahaha

the game tells us to make sure the room was clear before we began, when I first played it, the things in the room were a Christmas tree, my yound cousin, my dad, my mum, my aunt, my uncle, my brother, a table, a cat that will scrath even the slightest movement it sees and a TV. How am I supposed to move all that?

SKULLB: USE YOUR HANDSSSSSSS

Now, moving on to brawl. This game is addictive, a bit to much as it was about halfway between a big fight between Kirby, Mario, Bowser and Wolf when I realised the game is actually pretty not great, but couldn't stop playing as when my cat leapt on to my lap I found myself grasping for the "A" button.

SKULLB: I couldn't stop not even for a second to put in a period because I was having too much fun with my Wii I HATE THE WII"

I was hooked, and I couldn't do anything about it. However, the one thing that ticks me off is character unlocking.

SKULLB: "WORKING TOWARD MY GOALS IS BULLCRAP"

Brawl, I want to play as Luigi, so let me. I don't want to have to complete story mode, beat a hundered games or barbecue a racoon to do so.

SKULLB: Haha, barbecue a raccoon! How delightfully non sequitur!

So, in all, thw Wii is fairly annoying. But lovable. I'm a hardcore, shooter lover, but I can still enjoy the qick break from gritty realism to men with oversized heads.

SKULLB: "I like to take time off of slowly fueling my nerd rage to let it out with cartoon characters GOD I HATE THE WII"

Hey, if they finally make a good shooter game, it may give my Xbox a run for his money.

-Awaiting abuse,

SI Yahtzee.

SKULLB: I am crying on the inside and it will not stop.
