Man I've bought so much fucking Nintendo software this week it's untrue - picked up a bunch of 'Cube titles off the Play Trade section - Smash Bros, Wave Race, the Metroids, Wind Waker, Eternal Darknes, F-Zero, and pretty much every decent/semi decent Wii release. Bought a few SNES and N64 roms on VC and picked up a Cube memory card and a couple of Wavebirds. Christ.

But Resi4 on the Wii, eh? Holy shit. Played it to death on the PS2 and completed it on the 'Cube, loved it obviously, but this version is clearly miles more entertaining and enjoyable. I was concerned about the aiming at first, moved the sensor bar on top of the TV and now I'm precision aiming every time - taking pitchforks out of hands, hitting kneecaps at will and lining up perfect headshots. The shotgun feels amazing with the remote, I'm just loving this. Best game ever.

Gonna have a look at Zelda TP, later on tonight.

If Too Human has even a slice of the atmosphere and story of ED it will still be one of the best this-gen action titles.

Oh :D

I've played most of these before (apart from WW and Smash Bros) when I owned a 'Cube, but for the silly money I've paid for them it was worth owning them a second time.

Just about to start the lake section on Resi 4....

I always thought it was overrated, but hey. Very beautiful, but not a great shooter. Gradius V buries it.

Just been watching the latest Forever Blue movies and am pretty much gagging for this now. All we want is an update of this, right?

Yeah I picked up F-Zero and Soul Calibur II out here for the princely sum of $10 for both. Ikaruga however cost me $30. Used Gamecube stuff is an utter bargain, really this is THE best time to get older-gen titles you never played. This is one reason why I'm such a big proponent of backwards-compatibility.

I've still got Resi4 Wii shrink-wrapped, it's been laying around for weeks, best crack it open then. Did anyone rate Killer7?
