Wii Music (releases Fall 2008)
Nintendo has come up with many phenomenal ideas but Wii Music is not one of them. It'll probably sell millions, but that doesn't mean it'll be fun. In the game, you take the Wii remote and nunchuk and move them like one of the game's 50 instruments, pretending to strum guitar, bang drums or tickle the piano keys. But aside from recreating songs, there's no reason to play. Forget about high scores and downloading new music. All you do is flail your arms around like an idiot in the hopes of recreating Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. Really, Nintendo? Someone needs to tell Mario and Co. that kids are smarter than they look.

Hmmm... I agree with a lot of the comments, but don't sell LittleBigPlanet too short. There are a LOT of creative hard-core gamers out there who can turn the game into another hot online game.
we're accusing konami of not having the guitar/drum/tuba games first. yeah. then what was guitar freaks? and drummania? oh yeah, they're the same idea of guitar hero/rock band, just made before. next time you try to have an opinion, get your facts straight.
OK -- so raise your hands if you've actually played Little Big Planet... seriously -- have you even played the game or are you basing your love for the game based on some live demo?
I'm sorry but I agree with the writer. Sonic turning into a werehog? Wow why not give him a sword and make Amy a freaky Princess. I mean seriously that concept is just a blatent rip-off of twilight princess. It's like "Hey if it worked for Nintendo maybe we can sucker people into it too." And then there's the Sonic RPG.... ummm It just seems a little like they are trying to Mimic whatever Nintendo does with there own mascot. Also I don't know about anyone else but I think it's time to let WW2 rest for a while. I mean I get it it was a horrible atrocity of the human race. But do we have to continue reliving it for all eternity? How many times have we played through D-Day and VJ-Day and all the other epic "Days" 50? 100? 200? I say ENOUGH. Start doing other conflicts or I don't know... maybe MAKE SOME UP. Be inventive guys. And shame on the people who keep buying these games and letting the makers get away with rehashing the same played out War over and over again.
games in general are a very hit and miss industry, however, i have to agree with the imagine franchise of games, i will have to take a look at damnation, if it's not as bad as darkwatch game by capcom i am sure it'll do ok, but it could get buried in the wash of high profile games, that are comming out soon...
This whole article is based on what, one person's opinion?!?! Just because one person thinks a game sucks, doesn't mean it will. So maybe some people agree with you, but for example, "Sonic Unleashed". Sure Sonic turning into a werewolf, or "werehog", isn't something you would expect. But I think it's a pretty cool idea! But that's just my opinion. And besides, even if it is a bad idea, it's just one part of the game! That's just like complaining about how Mario uses mushrooms and flowers. It's just one part of the game, and that shouldn't ruin the whole game! Why let something like that ruin a possibly great game for you? I would either at least give the game a chance or learn more about it before assuming i*****ame sucks or not.
Epic fail, all the games were pretty ****ty beside little big planet. That game completely changes the way games are play. Please if you are going to right articles like this don't be so ****y and think your gods voice about video games because you FAIL at it.
LittleBigPlanet looks amazing,And it's not gonna be like Halo 3 Forge. You'll have more detail and control of your level. And BiA is gonna be good. I don't see why that was up there. And how can you judge these games if you only played a bit of it? This list is pure bull****
*clears throat* Well, I was amused..... But, really, people, please. This is an opinion article. And, honestly, I agree with them on most of their points. If I'm going to buy a game I want something new, something interesting. Sonic was wonderful, yes, but we already have numerous sonic games. Why bother to buy a new one? Same for any other "repeat" games. *shrugs* but, hey, to each their own. Just stop bashing because you can't get your head out of you ass long enough to look at things through someone else's eyes, please?
