Curling



decasportsCurling on the Wii = amazing. The new game Deca Sports has a total of 10 games. Most can be found on other games, Kart Racing, Supercross, Snowboarding, Basketball. There is also Badminton, Archery, Figure Skating, Beach Volleyball & Soccer. Really though the best is Curling. How can you not love a game that involves sweeping. I mean come on, a common household chore that is an Olympic Sport it doesn’t get any better than that.



Civilization RevolutionCivilization Revolution is a very enjoyable game. So far I have only played the demo on Xbox 360 and both times I sat down to play it I think I played for a hour. Once as the Romans and once as the Egyptians. I have always been a fan of sim games (except The Sims, which I have never been able to get into). I can’t wait to be able to buy the game and actually be able to save. You can also play as about 15 more civilizations. Of course there are also lots of achievements, good for those of us with OCD. Looking through the list of achievements I would have already opened a few of them up.



Boom Blox Boom Blox is exactly the type of game the Wii was created for. This is not just a port of some game onto the Wii, this game was developed with the Wii control scheme in mind. Most of the game is two types of games. Either a version of Jenga or throwing a ball and trying to knock blocks down. I have played through a bit of the single player, and quite a few hours with other players, both kids and adults, and everyone is able to catch on pretty quick. This is a game that can provide hours of enjoyment (though not at one time as your elbow tends to get sore after a while). One thing I can this game does need is a better explanation of how some of the games work. Some of the multiplayer games are a bit confusing when it comes to the scoring and how the game actually ends. Finding different ways to explode the bombs and chemical blocks is my favorite part. All in All this is a great game and I highly recommend it.

I give this game a rating of 9 out of 10.
