To Play or Not to Play: Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games for Wii

Ok, so here's the thing with Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games. The 2008 version isn't as good as the new version. In 2008, all the sports get boring after a while. However, in the Vancouver 2010 version, the game is a lot more addictive! They have most of the sports you have in the Winter Olympics like Ski Jumping, Figure Skating and Ice Hockey just to name a few. The first thing I tried was Bobsliegh. That one if probably one of the harder one's to do. One thing about it is that it is challenging however it is still possible and fun. You have to move your Wii remote each way to stay on track and not hit the sides. Another one of my favorite ways to play is the Festival. When you play in the Festival, you can go 1 to 4 players. The computer automatically gives you sports and training sessions to do and it is very fun. You also meet rivals along the way. The goal in that is to win th overall championship by having the most points by the end of the 2 weeks. If you do win something like medals or championships, you can win new events like the dream events and points to go shopping. When you go shopping, you can buy stickers and clothing to customize your Mii and your equipment like Skis, Snowboard, and Bobsleigh. The only thing about this game again is it's price. But if you are choosing a game a new game to play on the Wii, I would strongly recommend Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games.

To Play or Not To Play: Wii Sports Resort

Over the weekend, I had a chance to play through Wii Sports Resort. Ive heard many things about this game, but this time I actually played the game and heres what I have to say. The game says 12 NEW sports to play when really there only are 9...I mean why would you put bowling and golf back into the game when its already in the first one...probably to sell better. The third game was Table Tennis...Its not in the first game but if u just cross out TABLE its tennis, which is almost the same except for when you play on a table. The other 9 games were Swordplay, Wakeboarding, Basketball, Frisbee, Power cruising, Archery, Cycling, Air sports, and Canoeing. Although there were only 9 actual new games I have to say, THEY WERE FUN! Very addictive...The Wii Motion Plus really makes the game realistic. It improves the game play for the Wii A LOT, the two problems are, that when you wanna play two player, you need to buy another Wii Motion Plus which could cost around $20.00, and sometimes it gets a little laggy which could disrupt your gameplay. The graphics of this game are pretty much the same as the other games that start with WII. The weird thing is when your doing swordplay you can move the sword through your body which is funny but weird. This game is a little costly though, 60 dollars is a little too much, 50 is worth it but I guess you know in our times...

These are my overall gradings for this game:
Addictivity-A
Graphics-B
Gameplay-B
Cost-C+
Fun-A
Overall-B+

So the answer is:
