Wii Motion Plus Review

So yeah, I just bought Nintendo's newest little device called Wii Motion Plus with its purpose to increase accuracy and enhance play control on compatible games as said on the back of the box. Now I cant say much yet due to there only being three games yet released using Motion Plus capabilities. That being Grand Slam Tennis, Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2010, and Virtua Tennis 2009. I have only played Grand Slam Tennis for this review. I tried the game using the Motion Plus and without out it for comparison. Without Motion Plus, the game basically felt like Wii Sports Tennis. But with Motion Plus, it was a whole different experience. The increase of accuracy was amazing, the character on screen mimicked most of your movements while without Motion Plus, it didn't mimic any movements. Wii Motion Plus is a great little device for a fairly cheap price. If your somebody who doesn't like to move at all and just move your wrist a little, then i don't recommend it.

Fallout 3: Point Lookout DLC Preview

Left 4 Dead 2!!

The Microsoft Press Conference at this years E3 was pretty amazing. One game that I didn't really expect to see but hoped to see at E3 was a sequel to Valve studios Left 4 Dead. Surprisingly Left 4 Dead 2 did make an appearance at the Microsoft Conference as an Xbox 360 and PC Exclusive Title. Makes me proud to be a Xbox 360 owner. From the looks of it, the game will mostly take place during the day and will have a wider variety of weapons at your disposal including frying pans, axes, baseball bats, and chainsaws. In the HD Trailer below, it shows the game to be released on November 17. I know one thing, Ill be keeping a close watch on where this title will go.

E3s Biggest Heart Breaker

One of the games I was most excited to see was the Xbox 360 title Alan Wake. The game did make an appearance at the Microsoft Press Conference and it looks like they took there time at trying to make it perfect. But then at the end of the demo they announced it to release in 2010. WHY!!!. Its E3s biggest heart breaker.

Red Steel 2 Lookin Awsome

Not much has been said about the sequel to the Wii exclusive Red Steel. But I can say one thing about it...Sweet!!!. From the looks of the trailer, the game is going to focus on the Wii Motion Plus for its sword play. I highly doubt those are actual in-game graphics, but who knows. The game looks like its taking a modern western kind of vibe. We will probably learn a lot more when E3 comes by tomorrow. Check out this Red Steel 2 Debut Trailer in HD.

Is Alan Wake still Awake?

Many great games are going to be at E3 next week and I'm excited to see the gameplay footage. But something got me thinking about that old game known as Alan Wake. Back when the first trailer was shown my thoughts were "Hey, that looks cool" and then I forgot about it until now. I don't know practically anything about the game but from the looks of it, its gonna be sweet with a capital S. Every time i watch the latest trailer I get chills. My answer for the question: "Is Alan Wake still Awake?" is 99 percent Yes. Due to that being the chance of Alan Wake making a appearance at E3 this year. I really hope I'm not wrong.

Fable 2 "See the Future" DLC review

Fable 2's much anticipated "See the Future" DLC has gotten some mixed reviews and I can see why. The small amount of missions the DLC gives are pretty short and could be completed in a matter of two hours. Previous DLC Knothole Island wasn't that long either but it wasn't as short as See The Future. It has a total of four quests, but I only think of it as two because the other two aren't actual quests. In one, all you do is control your character by walking about eight feet and the other is just an arena which you can visit and play in whenever you want. All the playable content in this DLC are played through cursed objects given to you by, who other than Murgo. Yes Murgo, the crazy salesman who sold you the cursed music box in the beginning of the game. First, is the cursed snowglobe. Inside is a black and white town trying to regain its color back with great use of blue, yellow, and red coloring. The second and not so great quest has you enter a cursed skull. This quest has you finding various costumes and using different expressions to proceed on. This next "quest" is one of the selling points which is Seeing The Future of Albion. I have to say its kind of disappointing. Now I wont spoil anything, but this interactive cutscene is very brief and if you daze off for just the slightest second you ll miss everything. Once the vision is over, you cant go back. The last "quest" is what all hardcore Fable players have been waiting for, which is the coliseum. This ancient battle arena has you fight against increasingly difficult hordes of enemies until time runs out. After time runs out you are given a prize or prizes depending on how well you did. You can revisit or play in this arena as many times as you want. Murgo doesn't just sell what has already been told. He also sells many tattoos, hair styles, clothes and potions. The other major selling point of this DLC are the new dog breeds. I was some what pleased and disappointed at the same time. Pleased because having a new breed of dog is kind of cool. Disappointed because there are only three new breeds available including Bloodhound, Dalmatian, and Husky. Also included is the Mutt potion which is used to turn your dog back to its original form. Bloodhound and Dalmatian are cool looking with Dalmatian being my favorite. But I was most looking forward to the Husky which I was the most disappointed in due to it just looking odd and for some reason they gave it a weird black tongue which I cant look past. Along with everything are some new achievements as well. This is overall a decent DLC with a good amount of new content including quests, dog breeds, costumes, a hardcore battle arena, collectibles, and a glimpse of the future all for 560 Microsoft Points. If your looking for some new playable content for Fable 2, its definitely worth a purchase.

SCORE: 3/5
