Ghost Squad, at home arcade for the Wii!

Ghost Squad

Well as many know the Wii is a very good system for shooter games that are in the arcade style because of the wiimote. Ghost Squad is a good example of one of those. I bought Ghost Squad a while ago and I have to say that it gets its use when my friends or family come over and want to have some fun for a little while. The game isn’t long and has the same crappy arcade shooter story, but it’s a fun game to play. The game is pretty short because you have three different levels, but you can repeat them over and over to make them more difficult. You can also get better weapons and change your outfit to be some pretty ridiculous things like having a crazy hat on or really weird clothing on. Overall a short game, but a fun one.

I would suggest getting this game for someone who has a Wii and misses playing those arcade shooter games. If you do happen to pick this up or any other arcade shooter I would also suggest getting a “gun” accessory to put your wiimote in because it makes the game experience all that much better.

Ghost Squad brings back those childhood arcade memories

No More Heroes, another Wii game not for children

No More Heroes

Well it has been a while since I have played No More Heroes, but I do remember that it is a great game for the Wii that I spent many hours playing. As I said in an earlier post when it comes to Wii games you are mostly limited to games aimed at a younger audience. Of course many of those games like the Super Mario franchise are great games and are just amazing for all ages, but when you have a Wii you get enough of those games and want to play something more geared for adults, something with some gore, and some story and a bit of style. No More Heroes is about man becoming an assassin/hitman who wants to become the number one assassin and be known for it. You fight your way through many “bad guys” and a difficult boss like most games. What makes this game different is the variety of combo’s that you can do while you fight and the story involved. The game play is somewhat similar to GTA (Grand Theft Auto) in the fact that when you are not fighting you are driving around town in your awesome motorcycle doing work, and finishing missions. The overall style of this game is unique and holds its own to any single player game where you go and “beat” people. The game shouldn’t be played by your young one’s because of graphic content and language, but if you are an adult you will appreciate the style of this game.

If you have a Wii and are looking for a good one player game that you can sit down for hours playing, then this is the one.

Enjoy your rise to the top.

Mad World, goriest Wii game yet? I think so.

Mad World!

Playing all those super mario games are great fun and all, but when you have a Wii you feel as if you need something not so child like all the time, you feel like you need something gory? Well Mad World is definitely the answer to those of you who are looking for a game that is fun and extremely gory and just a rant in itself. Picking up Mad World a couple of weeks ago was one of the greatest choices I have made thus far for theWii. The game is based on becoming a #1 Ranked killer basically and it is done in a black and white style cartoon which has really cool effects because the only color is red and that’s for blood. The ways that you can take someone out are really limitless, you can go from throwing someone into a train to something I don’t want to explain in words it’s so gory. This game is definitely not for children and I only advise playing it if you like fighting games with lots of blood. Each level you will go through your ordinaryJoe’s and then face a boss at the end and that’s where the game gets really interesting because each boss is different and has different abilities and skills that make it more difficult or easy than the last boss you faced. If you are into fast paced fighting games with a cool style this is the game for you because it has all of that and tons of gore/ways to take out someone.
