    My wife wants one for her birthday but I refuse to buy it for her because I'm 99 percent certain she will throw the remote through my beautiful tv

    yeah i bought 2k8 today
    the gameplay is pretty good

    shitty sides too it though.... it doesnt have online play or any online capabilities such as roster updates... so thats kind of shitty however, these features apparently are availible on the 360 and ps3

    so far i like it

    what about the Wii internet access?
    does anyone know what its limitations are? i think you have to use wii points to get the internet channel.... can you stream videos through your wii? that would be sick

    also... are the wii games going to start to have online gameplay like alot of 360 games....
    i cant seem to find much info on this

    thanks!

    Super Mario party 8 is an awesome family game.

    The kids also enjoy Star Wars Lego and Mario Galaxy, but I don't play those much.

    Mario Galaxy is one of the best games ever. Not just on the Wii I mean on any platform. No I am not exaggerating, you are crazy if you own a Wii and not this game imo.

    Wii is by far teh most annoying system I've ever played.

    Gameplay is so slow if you or some other friend who's new at the game tries to use these fucked up controllers.

    Sit there twiddling the damn controler just to push a box.

    PS3>xbox360>xbox>ps2>wii

    I own Zelda and Metroid, those are two great games. Wii Sports is fun too, don't forget that.

    Games to get:

    Super Mario Galaxy (waaaay better than mario 64)
    Super Paper Mario
    Guitar Hero III
    Mario party 8 is a fun 4 player game if you have 4 people to play, provided you have 4 controllers.

    Bully was just released for the Wii Monday, if you haven't played that, that is a fun game.

    Super Smash Bros. Brawl out Sunday, that's a must buy.

    IMO though, the real bargain is the Internet Channel for $5 off the Wii Shop Channel. That should be the first thing you buy, along with whatever you need to surf the internet on your TV. Youtube is way better on the tube.

    Mario Kart out in April, Wii Fit out in May. You can pre-order at GameStop or whereever.

    I'd also pick up a Classic Controller so you can play the old games should you choose to download any. And there are plenty of good ones at cheap prices.

    ^^rent metroid first. i thought this game was terrible, you get stuck at places not because you cant beat it but because you can figure out where the fuck to go. you basically need to use a walkthrough.
