About Wii Games: 'DJ Hero' Reviewed

  from Charles Herold

This week I review the fun but pricey DJ Hero and toss out a few thoughts on games I never got around to reviewing.

As for my next review, I'm really not sure, but just to keep you in the loop, Need For Speed Nitro is a pretty solid racing game, Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles is pretty good rail shooter that can be very frustrating Tony Hawk: Ride comes with a skateboard peripheral that someone will probably fall off of and break something sooner or later. And Just Dance is a cute rhythm game that makes me feel like a dork when I play it. Details on one or more of these will be coming soon.

Chicks Dig the Wii
According to Nintendo, as reported by Kotaku, female gamers form about a quarter of the Wii's base, and female gamers prefer the Wii by huge margins (they claim 80% of girl console gamers are going Wii, with the Xbox 360 and PS3 splitting the other 20% between them). The big questions are 1) why? and 2) how does this effect what games ... Read more
