Winter Carnival Aftermath - Questions that need answers
leiden | 12:38 PM on 12.26.2007 3 comments


Christmas has come and gone, and I’d like to think I made out like a bandit. Obtaining a Wii, a bunch of games for it, and Uncharted for the PS3, it’s fair to say that I’ve got a fair bit of game playing to be done. However, I have popped in everything I got atleast once minus Uncharted, so since I’m bored, SNAP REVIEWS (that no one gives a shit about)! By the way, if you don't read my stupid impressions on the games, there is a question at the end.

Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles – Not too bad, I played really briefly but it wasn’t terrible. It’s a rail shooter, hurr, and since I grew up around arcade machines I’m used to this kinda thing and like it.

Super Mario Galaxy – It’s Mario 64 with sweet controls and a fuckin’ awesome universe. Lovin’ this game.

Resident Evil 4 – Amazing. I’ve played this the most out of all the games I’ve gotten so far and god damn is it good on the Wii.

Trauma Center: New Blood – I played the DS version of the first title and liked it well enough. I’ve been popping this in when taking a break from “real” games and it keeps me occupied. I like it.

Mario and Sonic Olympics – Only really playing it with friends or my brother, not too much fun by myself. Definitely a great party game though.

Brunswick Pro Bowling – It’s a bowling game… I like it, it’s fun, though Wii bowling probably would have been enough, however, I do like the career mode option in this title.

Carnival Games – In the same boat as Olympics, really fun party game but I can’t imagine playing it with myself.

Mario Party 8 – Fantastic party game, love it to death.

Manhunt 2 – Eh, it’s Manhunt I guess. I haven’t really gotten into it too much cause I don’t really care, I’ll probably beat it eventually.

Spyro – Not too much play time with this one, watched my brother play it some though and it seemed alright.

Yeah so, I made out pretty good, on top of that stuff I got a bunch of DVDs too which I haven’t watched because of the constant playing with my Wii. All and all, I’m pretty pleased with the new system and the games I’ve gotten. A lot of things to play and keep me occupied, even though I am pretty overwhelmed. With so much stuff to play, I can’t decide if I’m going to jump around or just dominate one game at a time, it’s a lot to cover. For the Wii anyway, I’m going to wait till I have time to sit down and play Uncharted straight through without playing other stuff in between. I am one of those gamers though, thinking about it, it’s kind of a joke thinking I’d skip around and play different games. It’s not my style, especially for single player things.

So you tell me, what game should I bang out first?

Resident Evil 4
Super Mario Galaxy
Uncharted

I figure we’ll leave it to those three since they are really the only ones with strong single player. The others I could jump around and play at my leisure, but I’d only want to play one of these at a time.
