Been a long time gone...and won't really come back. For a few months I've been buzzing around my schoolwork, my job and my girlfriend ans friends. I must say I've lost pretty much of my interest in video games. I was very surprised when I went to the local Wal-Mart (for the first time in, like, a whole year, I swear) and saw a brand new Advance Wars game, and new Final Fantasy on DS etc. (I'm sorry Gamespot, the news reader of mine is gone for good). I didn't buy any at that time as I was looking for a different product: the Wii.
I bought the Wii for my little sisters. Of course, I do play a little, but really not that much time. I currently own Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, which was the first game I got and tried, and Trauma Center: New Blood and Okami. Trauma Center is fairly disappointing, as the same exciting gameplay and atmosphere come along again with the same old chit-chat between lame characters. I liked the first Trauma Center on DS for the gameplay, and I enjoy this one for the same reasons, nothing more.
Okami, however, is a great surprise. I knew the game from PS2, but never had the chance to enjoy it before. If I'm currently mostly playing Metroid, Okami is next on my list of games-to-beat. Outstanding visual design, great music, nice storyline; Okami is, up to now, one of my favorite games ever.
Metroid is by far the best game I had the chance to try on the Wii. Controls, graphics, sound, even the story, seems to be flawless to me. I don't even know how to describe it. You know I haven't wrote a review for a while...
Well that's it for now. I'm not planning to get as active as I used to be here on Gamespot and in the Unions. Just going to keep in touch with Wii-related news and upcomming games.
Have fun out there and get out a little. You know it feels so good. I won't make you a speech here however...
Gamespotters, I salute you!
