Super Monkey Ball Step and Roll release date

Being the animal lover I am I wouldn’t typically condone the idea of sealing Monkey’s inside giant plastic balls. But Super Monkey Ball does make the idea more appealing than it ever should. Super Monkey Ball step and roll is the second in the series to appear on the Wii but this time your body and the Wii Fit balance board now become the controller. I’ve enjoyed all of the Super Monkey Ball games ever since I played the original on the Nintendo Gamecube and I’m already waiting in anticipation to get hold of the latest one. The Super Monkey...

Tatsunoko vs Capcom Ultimate All Stars review

Tetsunoko vs Capcom is the latest in the vs series of 2D fighting games from Capcom which pits the most beloved of their characters against another brand. We’ve already seen this work very well with vs SNK and Marvel and now it’s time for the famous anime company Tetsunoko to have a go at kicking some ass. If you’re not Japanese you’ll be forgiven for not knowing many of the characters getting in the ring with the Capcom characters but you may have heard of Jun the Swan and Ken the Eagle from what we know in the UK as...

Planet 51 The Game review

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Games released to come out at the same time as movies are usually very bad. Sometimes they work if they’re inspired by the movie or don’t have to come out to hit a movie deadline but that’s not the case with Planet 51 The Game. In the game you get to play as the ‘alien’ Lem and as the crashed astronaut Chuck as you both work together to find his spaceship and get him home. What the game basically boils down to is a series of boring tasks and races in...

Wacky World of Sports review

Tuna Tossing. Just look at that for a moment. Doesn’t the idea strike fear into your heart? And yet, here it is; one of the ten mini-games available on Sega’s latest crazy concoction – Wacky World of Sports for Wii. Sega have travelled the world, found the most bizarre cult and niche “sports” they could get coherently explained to them and decided to bring them to the Nintendo Wii. If you’ve ever wanted to see how far you could throw a fish and nobody ever gave you a chance, consider this your big break. You weirdo. So there’s Tuna Tossing,...
