Nintendo have recently announced Project Zero 2: Wii Edition exclusively for the Wii. Tecmo Koei Games are re-launching the creepy game with all new motion controls and new two player modes across Europe on 29th June.

We Sing POP is the latest in a long running franchise on the Wii. The last edition was a rock and metal version, and was surprisingly good. This new version eliminates the guitars and tattooed men, replacing with Peter Andre. But is it actually any good? Well, yes and no. If you’re not a fan of Lady Gaga, Hanson or Village People, you’ll no doubt give this a miss. We Sing is a karaoke game, where a player uses a USB Microphone to sing in time with the song being played. Yes it’s another one of THOSE games. The tracks...

With five years worth of games at a great price, Wii is an ideal first gaming platform for young children between 5 and...
Link’s back for another adventure and Skyward Sword is most definitely going to be the last one he has on the Wii. This time the young boy who takes on the role of adventurer lives in the land of Skyloft and after a ceremony in which he becomes knighted, his sweetheart Zelda is soon thrust down to the surface below and Link has to go and look for her. Cue the usual mix of dungeoneering, questing, talking to townsfolk and using the old grey matter to get from A to B. Despite the graphics and some of the animations looking...
Last night was The Legend of Zelda 25th Anniversary Symphony at the Hammersmith HMV Apollo in London. I arrived at a venue that was ridiculously busy outside as people queued round the corner to get inside and try out Skyward Sword in the lobby before grabbing a quick drink, getting some merchandise and finding their seats. We were in for a treat because as we sat down we were confronted by the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra waiting patiently on the stage, along with a big projected screen above them to show the visuals from the Zelda games over the past...
