So, for anyone getting a Wii, I'm listing off games. (This is mainly for Celestial Fox Frenzi and Agent Kennedy, btw) Feel free to add!
Naturally, to be fair, I can list some good 360 and PS3 games too if you ask for it. razz
Games for the Wii I recommend:
No More Heroes (one of my favorite games this generation so far. Pure comedy, pure style.)
MadWorld
Super Mario Galaxy
Metroid Prime 3
Castle Shikigami 3
Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn
Zelda: Twilight Princess
RE: Umbrella Chronicles (only if you have a buddy, or else it'll get stale after a while!)
Okami (especially if you haven't played the PS2 version)
House of the Dead: Overkill (actually a really fun game)
Deadly Creatures (Billy Bob Thornton is hilarious in this game)
Onechanbara (mindless zombie slaying. Fun zombie slaying)
Super Paper Mario
That's just off the top of my head. I'll let you know if I can think of anymore later, my brain's fried because it's so late. D:

I want to get MadWorld just because of No More Heroes ha ha.
I'm also currently in the middle of playing Okami, and it rocks!
Also, I'm going to rent Overkill and Deadly Creatures, because both of those caught my attention...
Anyways, my head has exploded from excitement:
Sam Raimi has confirmed, not said, but confirmed that after Spiderman 4, he is going to do Evil Dead 4 because he had so much fun doing Drag Me to Hell. Wait for it...HAIL TO THE MOTHER ******** KING BABY!
Also, I'm going to post up four video game reviews here soon.
[EDIT] And here they are (Two of them, at least). All for the PS2, by the way.
Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy
Overall Score: 9/10
Canas, I recommend this game for you, because it's a really fun Zelda-esque adventure game. It is a lot more puzzle oriented then action, but that's a good thing since the puzzles are really fun to solve. It is pretty challenging albeit a little short (Took me 16 hours to beat), but the visuals are breath-taking for the time. It has good Egyptian theme music as well. It's one major downfall is how the story is told. It's just told in a stale format of short, information filled cut scenes. The story itself is rather cliche, but excellent. It also has a cliffhanger ending, which really sucks cause I don't see a sequel coming, like, ever...
Jak and Daxter: The Precursor Legacy
Overall Score: 8/10
I had high expectations for this game since it was made by Naughty Dog, who made one of my favorite PS1 platformers (Crash Bandicoot 3), and they were not squashed. The game is a really fun platformer, with a beautiful design as well. But, the game has three major downfalls that hinder it to super awesome status:
1. The story is shallow as all hell. This is how it goes: Oh no, Daxter turned into a ferret! Well, you need to go over there to fix yourself! Oh, and while your out, can you collect some s**t and defeat the bad guys for us, pleaaaase? The one thing that saved it was Daxter himself. He was an effing hilarious comedy relief.
2. The gameplay is ultra basic. You don't acquire any new moves and just go through the game jumping and punching. There are mini games and gimmicks (Like races) to keep it from being repetitive, but still, it would have been nice to be able to learn additional techniques to get through the game.
3. It took me roughly 10 hours on my first play through to beat it 100%. That is one short a** game.
But all in all, even with it's downfalls, it's still and enjoyable game.
