Really looking forward to this one. :)

Hoping the UK version isn't too censored though.

Just to note, your points due for expiry don't seem to be used first.

All free shit though.

Yes, I'm loving it.

Quite hard for me on normal mode, it is very Operation Thunderbolt what with the cursor on screen, but you need it, and I'm enjoying learning the patterns, doing the bosses in and so on. Seem to be a good few levels and unlockables, and you can upgrade guns and such.

Possibly a renter, for those who aren't Resi fans or big fans of the genre. The graphics are quite tidy and I'm almost tempted to play through Resi 1 again!

Almost.... ;)

Playing Resi UC just makes me want to play the real next installment of the game. Which as a Wii owner - isnt going to happen. As a light gun type game though, it works and the camera moves nicely (if a tad slow) id say its a rental.

Actually, there seems to be some stuff other than Wii points that are actually worth spending your star points on now...

It's very short I have platinum medal on every level already.

Holy crap!

Finished SMG a couple of days ago with 80 stars, it had the most WOW-moments in my gaming history ever. I am MR GAY. The bar has been raised.

Hmmm...

Well it has a multiplayer thing which I haven't tried. I think it's just a score thing.

We're talking about it here as Link's Crossbow Training but really it *is* a Wii Zapper with a throwaway mini-game that'll last you ~3 hours till you platinum everything.

Personally I'll not be using the Wii Zapper itself again.

If you have nothing better to throw your money at *or* you want the zapper then give it a go, the game is pretty good fun while it lasts. A tenner would have been about right, no make that 8 quid!
