Wii in Australia thread

[Eagles]

OMG I haven't posted on this page yet! Not much to say really, IGN Australia's best reviewed game this year was Super Mario Galaxy. Speaking of which I am now up to 86 stars in Galaxy, I'm pacing myself.

Edit - Looks like I'm starting this page off instead.

I had a SMG session today - I went back and tried to get all the random stars that I'd deemed to difficult. I always seemed to lose to many lives, so what I did was, I got about 30 lives and went and faced all those so called 'difficult' levels. Is it just me or do any extra lives all disappear when you save and quit? Like, I swear last time I stopped playing I had like 20 lives, this morning when I turned it on I had 4 lives. Is that normal, or have I just forgotten that I must have died about 15 times?

Yeah, your lives reset when you quit.

Yeah, Wii has had zero valuable 3rd party support. But that's looking to shape up either next year or the year after.

Hang on..its had some. SSX Blur was a fairly solid Wii effort, has a fantastic interface, uses the potential of the Wii remote. Same goes for Godfather (even though it was a wii-make of an old game). SOME third parties have tried, many just seem too lazy to try a bit harder....

Ubisoft has been pretty solid, though their quality is questionable.

I'm looking forward to Zack and Wiki, which has recieved great reviews. It would be the top third party game followed by Medal of Honour: Heroes 2, both of which are coming to Australia next year.

Meh, Ubisoft's quality has always been fairly questionable IMO. RedSteel was the first game I bought for Wii, also the first i traded in.

...but then I play Prince of Persia, and I can't help but forgive them.

Why would you? Red Steel was decent for a launch game, if it had spent more time in the works it would've been better but it was still enjoyable even thouhg it took me a little while to get around to playing it and now I refuse to play it, but the experiance while I was playing it was awesome. Red Steel 2 ftw!!

Anyhoo I think Ubisofts goods are too far outweighed by the bad, Petz and mediocre gmaes

ANd thats kinda the point... it DIDNT spend more time in the works, it was an awesome concept though, so I am keenly awaiting Red Steel 2.
