Reviews

  • Assassin's Creed II

    Assassin's Creed II is what you'd want an action sequel to be: bigger, better and more beautiful.

  • Lego Rock Band

    This charming rhythm game is especially good for first-timers, but it's a little light on content.

  • Punch-Out!!

    Punch-Out for the Wii isn't much different from the NES version, but it hardly matters when it's this much fun.

  • DJ Hero

    User-created routines and plenty of new activities make Wii Fit Plus a vast improvement on the original, although some important omissions stop it from being a standout.

  • Forza Motorsport 3

    The next instalment, coming in October, offers pumped up visuals, error prone AI drivers and a rewind feature to undo nasty little incidents, like dates with the Armco.

  • Uncharted 2: Among Thieves

    With an exhilarating campaign, intense cooperative mode and addictive multiplayer competition, Uncharted 2 is a complete game that is completely awesome.

  • My Fitness Coach

    My Fitness Coach: Get In Shape lacks vital feedback that distinguishes the more worthy fitness titles for the Wii.
