==Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games (Wii)==

Advantages: variety of games to play
Disadvantages: Slow loading

...Mario & Sonic at the olympic games was the first game i bought after getting a Wii for christmas. I personally think that it is an excellent first game to get for the Wii. You can happily play for hours and hours becuase of the wide variety of events you can play. These events include; *"Swimming" *"Archery" *"Running" *"Hurdles" *"Long jump" *"Triple jump" *High jump" *"Pole vault" *"Hammer throw" *"Javeline throw" *"Epée" *"Trampoline" *"Vault" *"Rowing" *"Skeet" *"Tennis" So as you can see by this list you have a wide variety to choose from but you also have the options of unlocking different games, this can be done by breaking records and so on. Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games is fun for all the family to enjoy because it has a multiplayer option of upto 4 people. You also get to choose from all your favourite...

Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games (Wii)

Advantages: Great fun, realistic actions
Disadvantages: Will tire you out easily

...During the 1990s, if you had a games console you would have probably been in one of two camps: Sega or Nintendo. I certainly was rooted firmly in the Sega camp having had a Mega Drive for many, many years with games like Street of Rage, Ecco the Dolphin and of course, Sonic the Hedgehog. I was a huge Sonic fan, playing the first and second game until completion and then starting up again a few days later as I loved everything about it, the colours, the gameplay.... everything. So if you tried to convince me that some 10-15 years later that Sonic and Mario would team up in a game, I probably would have just laughed. Back then it would have been an absurd thought but one that any magazine reviewer or computer game fanboy would have only dreamed about. Well January 2008 saw this realisation with the release of Sonic & Mario...

Now you can compete in the olympic games

Advantages: fun, variety of events
Disadvantages: muscle strain

...Having seen the advert for this game i was desperate to buy it as i have not had my wii for that long and i do not have many games. I eventually bought this game and i am so glad that i did as it is great fun. Players This game can be played as a one player or multiplayer as long as you have a wii remote for each player. Also you will need a nunchuck for each player although some of the games you can play with just the remote. Characters In this game you can play as characters from either sonic or mario such as sonic, tails, mario, princess daisy and yoshi. Each of the characters have different abilities which are split into speed, skill, power and stamina. you can choose a character who is a speed, skill, power or all around type which means that if you are playing a running game you would choose a character from the speed type...

Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games

Advantages: Great multiplayer fun, lots to do
Disadvantages: Slightly Repetetive

...The Wii version of Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games has been with us for a while now, and it hasn't been too badly received either amongst the Wii-mote waving, button bashing members of the public out there, so now that the DS version has finally arrived, should these same gamers still be as excited as they were the first time around? Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games on the DS is certainly not short on features, 16 playable characters have all been included, each of which are split into four categories such speed, skill, power and the all rounder's, therefore you can choose which characters you would prefer to use for each event based on their ability. The game also offers plenty of choice when it comes to events, these range from sprinting, swimming and cycling to more specialist events such as fencing and gymnastics...

Games galore fast and free

Advantages: Fast fun and friendly
Disadvantages: A large number of people

...I found this site by searching on the net one day. I was so bored that I decided to see if there were any little games that I could play so that I dind't get totally bored. i was also chatting to a couple of people, so i needed somehting that would let me chat and play at the same time. On saerching for "online games free" at yahoo, it gave me the link to www.games.com. At first I thought this was a bit of an obvious address, but the simple things are always good. When I got there, i discovered that i had to register,which put me off a bit, but I did anyway. To my surprise and delight I onlyhad to fill in few boxes and itwas only the normal stuff like email, username and password, so it was quite quick really! Once I got started I found there were quite a few games that I loved playing. Quite a lot were 2 player games...

Carnival Funfair games: Wii

Advantages: Cheap, very fun!
Disadvantages: No good for young children, and it doesn't "progress" much.

...This game is so fun!!! We got it with our Wii when we bought it and we got a little addicted to it!! Its got a variety of games on it which you can play which you find at real carnivals and funfairs! Games such as Coin toss, ball in a bucket, milkbottle tumbe and loads more!! You earn points and unlock prizes and more games as you go (my favourite prize is the G-Raff on the duck hitting game!!!!!!) It can be played by up to 4 players and if you only have one controller it accomodates this!!! As well as been a great game, its cheap too!! The only thing with it, is that some of the games don't last very long, and once you've unlocked the few games extra you can get, the game doesnt progress, but that is the only fault, and as a game to play to pass the time and have a good laugh in the head to head mode, its a great game to have a good...

Top Ten Free Classic Games

Advantages: see review
Disadvantages: see review

...Many younger people(huh, younger - I'm only 23) will scoff at the suggestion that games which are over 10+ years old are any good, but how wrong they are. If they would care to take the time to look, they could find that there is a wealth of great games out there just waiting to be snatched up again and played for hours on end - but this time they are completely free! Sites like the spectrum game archive(URL at end) offer these games to be downloaded at absolutley no expense to you other than the time and cost of a phone call to download a game which is probably around 100kb in size at the most. Admittedly, many of the older games are past their sell by date or were never very good in the first place, but I have compiled a top ten list here of the ones you really should check out.

Carnival funfair games are not so fun after all !!

Advantages: multiplayer but not alot else
Disadvantages: poor grafics, colour and sound

...I love funfair games and had been looking at this game for a long time before my partner decided to buy it for my birthday. On the back of my case it says "Experience all the fun and excitement of the funfair with carnival funfair games" You can create your player from a very limited choice but you can buy more things once you have won some tickets. This is a single or multi player game, with prize mode for single and head to head or competition for multi player. I played the single player game first where you play to win tickets and virtual prizes, the tickets you use in penny pushers or grabbing machines there are a few others too which I won't spoil for you because I found these the best part of the game. As you play the game and win prizes you turn them into bigger prizes this moves you closer to unlocking the extra games...

great fair games

Advantages: for all the family
Disadvantages: Using one remote can create problems

...All our family loved this game. It was easy to play and a real family game. We could all play with our own wii remote, or all of us using one remote. When using one remote, you had to be careful passing to the next player, as one flick of the remote could play part of the next persons go which was a bit frustrating. Some games were a bit difficult. But for alot of them once you got the nack of it they were great fun. Playing solo meant you could collect tickets and buy things for your person to wear. But mostly we played as a family. Some of the games once played in single mode unlocked bigger varieties of the same game. For example Mini golf with extras and skittles. There are lots of different typical fair games, for example: Dunk Tank - Use the wii to throw the ball to hit a target and knock the man into the water - target gets...
