Word of the day: Cheese.

Whaaaat? A blog update? What the hell?

I am so sorry for not updating for a long long long LONG time, but I’ve been busy with work, being out of work, concerts and playing around with ideas that work on the blog. A few friends have been asking me why I am not updating the blog. Here's a reason why not:

A Double No Never, or 007?

Well. This is a difficult subject to touch. Which is probably why I have had such a hard time writing about it. Who remembers the times when multiplayer meant that you and your friends would gather around a couch to play together, and not like it is today. If I’m at a friends’ place and he asks if I want to play multiplayer, I’d say: “Yeah, I’ll go home and log on, and it’s on!”

Well, now it’s coming back! With the Remake of the old Nintendo 64 classic Goldeneye, and it is coming to the Wii. Woops! I meant Re-Imagining.

That Little Sting One Feels

This was going to be my original entry before I heard about Star Wars in 3D. I still cringe of the thought, but I will get through this without it polluting this entry too much.

I am a proud owner of a Nintendo Wii (Yes, I dare to admit it AND have pride in it.). Although a lot of reviewers keep pointing out the sometimes lack of precision in the Wii Remote, bad graphics and childish games. I think there are a lot of great games to the Wii. The Resident Evil Archives and Chronicles, House of the Dead Overkill, MadWorld, Manhunt 2, The Godfather - Blackhand Edition, Metroid Prime Trilogy, Super Mario Galaxy, New Super Mario Bros. and as you see I can go on and on. I could probably list almost every dang game I own, except for Eledees a.k.a. Elebits and GT Sport something.. I don't even care enough to remember the title of it.

Wii Reflection: Eledees AKA Elebits

Hey folks!

In this article I will talk about a game that litterally annoyed me away from it, and I do not understand how I could spend money on it.

Eledees, or Elebits if you're not in Europe.

Let me give you the story summary I read in Wikipedia of Eledees/Elebits, so you can understand how I was fooled into buying it.

You're a young boy who's looking for these creatures of energy. You utilize the Wii Remote to pick up and move stuff. Searching for these Eledees/Elebits, by opening drawers, moving chairs. Here's where I thought: "Cool!. I would love it!". But, alas. That is where I would go completely wrong. But, in my defense, the wiki article alone wasn't in on fooling me to buy it. IGN gave it a 8.3.

Wii Reflection: The Conduit.

I was wondering if I should give a review of The Conduit for the Wii..

You don't want to see that? Oh.. Ok..

And they all lived happily ever aft.. Wait. No.. NO! I must! I have to.. For the sake of my own well being.

A short synopsis of the game where I draw parallels to one of my favorite games. (Oh you'll see which one).

This game is average at best at story, graphics are good for a Wii title, but the thing that ticks me off, is the ending. And I will make it clear why....
