That was on GameSpot. I was watching Gamer TV and they said it was really good.

Different places have different opinions on certain Video Games. Some places really don't like movies game so they give it a lower score then usual. I think Spiderman 3 was a good game to play. It had more stuff then Spiderman 1 and 2. :/

Awesome, as said before though, do you have pics of this?

Its good but not the best from this bandwagon. My favorite was the one where the guys with guns were facing the childern, not because it was portraying the death of kids but because it was different.

Wouldn't it be the other way around because Tom doesn't have a kid yet. :/

I think I just wanted it for something different, but the truth is, Zelda was the main reason. All those other stupid games could kiss my ass.

The Zelda games are awesome. Who wouldn't want to pick up a copy and play it for a couple of hours. :)

I did that too, looking around all the stores. I figured, "oh its before christmas.." and i really only wanted it for zelda, so i found a copy of twilight princess for the wii and got it. i still dont have a wii and a few months ago i got fed up with never finding a wii and just got the gamecube version of zelda instead. and i love it. i dont think i'll ever get a wii, may as well sell my zelda for $40 on ebay

I would suggest to you to wait until you find a Wii to play Zelda on it, but since you already have it and have little hope on finding a Wii I would say for you to sell it if thats what you wish to do. I have doubts that you will get $40 for it though. Most people now are selling Wii games for very cheap.

i guess gamestop and EB were having some shortage of TP and they were asking if folks would bring it back so they could sell it as used, but they were only giving store credit.

i hate how they never take shit back if you opened it either. of course i opened it! i fucking wanked to it for three months!!! bastards :/

well, it was a waste of a lot of money, but i was just throwing out a random number, i probably wont get it for more than 20 bucks

That sounds like them, they only wish to give store credit in most areas, the ones around my way just started offering cash for trade-ins!

Thats true, I don't understand that either, mainly when some of their games aren't even sealed and only have that round piece of tape on them keeping you from opening it!

well, it was a waste of a lot of money, but i was just throwing out a random number, i probably wont get it for more than 20 bucks

Well, I checked their website for you and you will get $25 for it in store credit, in cash you would lose a little bit of money. Would it even be worth it though? I would see first about trading it to someone for a game you do want or at least for something worth more than a mere $25, mainly considering the fact you never even got a chance to play it!

i mean, i'll be out a lot of money anyway, i paid $50 or so for it! but frankly, anything is better than nothing. I dont think i'll ever get a wii, i only wanted to play LoZ: TP on it, and i'm almost finished with it on the GC, and i'm not the type of person who goes and plays games over and over again, by the time i'd of gotten a wii i would have finished the game i wanted to get the wii to play, and so what if the maps are opposite or whatnot, so i've heard?! i'm left handed too, and link is raped and turned to a righty for the wii, that made me mad simply because i am left handed >.<

and i dont think i'd want to play anything on the wii.

but i am glad that it is much cheaper than a 360 or a PS3

I didn't really get all excited when i heard all these new consoles were coming out...im happy playing GTA: San Andreas on my PS2.

i think the PS3 was due, the xbox360 was a little soon after the Xbox release. oh well.

it looks like the wii will be the messiah of Nintendo.

the prices are a little over my head. i remember you could play the newest games in a fucking sears!

now they are locked up in boxes in their own isles in wal-mart.

Some parts of the game are mirrored, including some dungeons and the hand Link holds the sword in. From my knowledge though, both versions still have the same weapons and dungeons, so its not as if you're missing out on anything. I'm sure you being left handed would've caused problems when playing the game though, I could only imagine how much trouble I would've had if I had to play with my left hand since I am right handed.

and i dont think i'd want to play anything on the wii.

Some things are fun and some games even let you switch what hand you wish to hold the controller with, but I still think most games are made for people who are right handed.

but i am glad that it is much cheaper than a 360 or a PS3

Thats a plus I saw and one of the reasons I got it in the first place, I don't regret my decision in getting the Wii over anything else, it was well worth it.

Not bad - I jumped on the Brotherhood of Mod bandwagon about aq year ago, that was quite fun.

Yeah, I was at my girlfriend's friend's house and they plugged in the Wii with a monster truck racing game. We'd had quite a bit to drink and the four of us playing some bastard game of football was absolutely insane.

I think I'd better ease off the banana wine though.

they really hit on something, making the controller movement based, it opens up a whole lot of new things for gaming! and since the other two competitors just went for better graphics cards and more expensive hard drives, no wonder the wii is always out of stock.

it could have been a huge mistake or a great success, and i'm happy the made sure that the game play was sound and the glitches were minimal when they created it, it's really a great idea for them to do that because it's so vastly different, that they created a whole new niche for gaming.

and why are people complaining about the graphics, fuck, we played with pixels for fifteen years and then with colored pixels for nearly ten more before the N64 or playstation came out!

Not to mention that Mario, Sonic, Final Fantasy VII, Metal Gear Solid are considered some of the best games ever.... and their graphics are poor compared to modern ones.

Graphics aren't and never were considered the most important thing in a game to me, gameplay makes all the difference in any game when it comes down to it.

I HATE people who only play games for their graphics. I was talking to someone about Sonic once, and he said, "The old ones suck because they don't have good graphics."

Also, join.

Thats crap! The new ones are the ones that make me want to throw the system! The old ones didn't have the best graphics but they were awesome, had great gameplay and a better storyline than going after a genie!

The best thing about the controller movement is that you can really mess with your opponent by kicking, nudging or tickling them while they're playing.

Mash bananas black ones are best) up into paste in pot of water, simmer for about an hour. Sieve to remove lumps, seeds etc. Add sugar and yeast, allow to ferment for some time, then strain off dead yeast (sediment) and drink.

That's roughly how it's done

Exactly. Plus Sony didn't make it any better for themselves with their stupid rip-off with that "new" six-axis shit. I'm still a fan of the PS2, but the 3 isn't doing anything for me.

The glitches are indeed minimal. Except for Spidey 3. There are a few sound glitches in that one. Like Pete's voice (which is the voice for Toby Macguire, yes everyone is voiced by there characters) will get really deep for no reason, etc. And there was one time when it froze on me, but I guess that all next generation games have their time limits. I HAD been playing Spidey 3 for about 5 hours. And it was fair punishment for overplaying. I hadn't saved, so that was an added punishment.

I would have prefered a swift 10 punches in the arm to that though.

and why are people complaining about the graphics, fuck, we played with pixels for fifteen years and then with colored pixels for nearly ten more before the N64 or playstation came out!

Well not me. I only had the PS one and I went on from there.

Is it actually nice? nicer than normal wine? You would only ever get something like banana wine in england.

The only good thing about the PS3 over the PS2 is the wireless controls - I hate tripping over the wires and breaking controllers like that.

Still, I've got to get a usb headset sorted for my gaming *Plays NASCAR*

I've heard the same thing actually, theres also rumors that the game is basically going to be a port of the Playstation version with a few changes. Any word on if there will be any signifigant extras in this one?
