Can you do anything online together? you set your Mii's to mingle, and they travel to all your friends, then in games that support mii's, like wii sports, the mii's play in your team or are in the background cheering you can also send mail to your friends.

simon_marklar Posted January 12, 2007 I think I must be the only person in australia who is sick of his Wii already Warioware please come soon what games do you have? if you're not into zelda type games then the offerings are pretty crappy. super monkey ball is fun for a while... wii sports is more interesting if you do the training and learn how to properly control the game. i used to hate it until someone convinced me to do the training and now i love it of course, having someone else to play with helps there are some interesting games in development at the moment tho Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nabraxas Posted January 12, 2007 ^^ apparently the wii is backwards compatable w/the game cube, so there's plenty ov old games to be had for a pretty cheap price... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sobriquet Posted January 12, 2007 I hacked my first Playstation 1. I've still got a hacked Xbox I with a large hard drive installed with media centre and all my backed up *cough* games. But I'm itching for the next generation. I'd almost decided that I'd see which system was the first to be hacked and get that one. The idea of $100 for games is not what I call good value. I think it may the Xbox 360 that is hacked first as there has already been some success in that field. Nintendo have always been too controlling to have their boxes hacked and it has worked against them in some ways. The ability of a machine to be hacked doesn't invite everyone to have it done, and nor does it mean everyone gets pirated games. Some will, but the enormous boost it gives to the number of users of the console makes a huge difference in market dominance. The market has a slump post xmas anyhow so I expect the prices of these will come down alot in the next 6 months. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MORG Posted January 13, 2007 Hired an Xbox 360 last weekend. If you have a chance play "Gears of War". One of the best games I've played in some time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gears of War = I dont own a 360 myself, but all my friends with consoles do, so I play it a lot. Viva Pinata is actually quite good considering how different it is from other games available on the 360, most of them are all action shooty types, which are great, but I do like to sit back and grow my garden faster than physically possible. 5 minutes and Ive got a huge oak tree.
