I've never played Pokemon - bar little bits or red and yellow - suddenly I feel sorely tempted to see what all the fuss is about...

Essentially the easiest RPG to get in to, but so stupidly customisable if you want to waste hundreds of hours on it. If you like RPGs, I'd be very surprised if you didn't enjoy it.

That's not very nice is it.

It's probably a good time to start. It's arguably the most accessible Pokémon game of the lot - if only by dint of the battles running slightly quicker - yet it's still hella deep. It'll appeal to the OCD completist in anyone, too. I really enjoyed it. It's still more evolution than revolution, but like I said in my review, it's Advance Wars syndrome - it got so much right the first time, sequels were always going to have a hard time really improving things without breaking that delicate balance.

And your review is where ??!

I'm saving myself for the Gold and Silver remakes.

I played Pearl for about 20 hours and didn't really get too far. Silver consumed hundreds of hours.

I think i might take a look at FUEL, maybe rent it before buying? Not sure.

I'll also be getting EA Sports Active, I think.

You said the samething about Madworld

MadWorld is a great game, though. It's not perfect, and there were several caveats in my praise for the title, but I maintain that it's in the upper tier of third-party titles on Wii.

To be fair, it's not difficult to get into the upper tier of third-party Wii titles, considering what litters the tiers below. I do agree that MadWorld is fantastic though, I just wish more developers would release titles of similar quality and fun on the Wii.

I'll probably end up with Klonoa and Punch Out eventually, but I don't plan on buying them this week. My backlog is too big to consider any new games at the moment.

The demo is one of the best things I've played in years though, so I reckon it'll be right good.

This, I really like the demo, but I can't see the sales being spectacular over here, meaning it may get cheap very quickly!

I will be getting this but not on launch.

I managed to unlock the 4th circuit (you have to complete each circuit without losing any fights to do it) but never got far in it.

I was going to mention this elsewhere but forgot...

...UFC, contender for worst boxart ever? Its not just me surely.

I don't see anything wrong with it.

Forgot to mention, I'm adding Punch Out to my "Buy When Cheap" list.

When, in the name of Sweet Baby Jesus, are we gonna get Wolfenstien? The game engine is... *does the math* ...5 years old now. What's the hold-up, FFS?

I'd like to get Klonoa but it'll have to wait for now. Even if it is really cheap.
