Oh, right. They're all awesome. The Wii has amazing games, is the most backwards-compatible console of this generation which gives it +50 points, the control scheme is comfortable, GUI's pwnsome. The trick is, the battery life of the Wiimote is low compared to Sixaxis and 360 controller and the sensetivity's kinda weird on my TV. Plus no HD support, and there's the chance the remote'll just be a gimmick. The XBox 360 has a great lineup, of couse, it's got a great interface, the free demos thing is pwnsome, and I can watch Veronica Mars in 1080i without having to be awake on Tuesdays. I'd prefer HDMI support and maybe full XBox backwards compatibility, and the media thing's kinda tricky to work, but regardless. Oh, and paying money for XBox Live. Meh. The PS3 comes in third, but not in an it-totally-sucks kind of way. True, the lineup isn't too impressive, the online stuff is kinda finicky, and it's HUEG LIEK XBOX LOL, but if you get the $500 model, cheap Blu-Ray player. I haven't played around with it that much, but what I've seen's given me high hopes. Oh, and the Sixaxis doesn't feel cheap, it feels light. |

How is the batterylife low it's like 20-30 hours. Regardless all people with Wiis are automatically awesome and will form a super awesome club of inside information. |

Okay, I got past the damned fishing bit, and am now simply careering through it. Today saw the fall of that giant fire thing with the chains... You know, the second dungeon boss? Man, I love this game! |

I beat the third dungeon yesterday, and the fourth today. Man, going into the third dungeon boss room had me sweating (being hydrophobic and the room being filled with water and very deep) but the guy himself was fairly simple... barely touched me as his attack strat was so basic. The fourth dungeon boss, on the other hand, was just a bit more of a challenge. Especially the head. And as for the cutscene right after the fourth dungeon I KNEW Ganondorf would be involved somehow! |

I honestly don't see how Ganondorf being involved is a spoiler. |

Ah, but the fact that he appears in a flashback following the fourth dungeon kinda is.I didn't wanna ruin the surprise. And not every Zelda game has him in it. Majoras Mask, Minish Cap are the most recent examples where different villains were involved. |

I'm curious... Has anybody used the Wii to go online yet? I'm just wondering whether or not to purchase the browser. |

Is Twilight Princess one of the most consistantly amazing games produced in years? Yes, yes it uniquivably is. Is the fourth dungeon's boss going up there with Wind Waker's finale as one of the most enjoyable boss fight's I've experienced? With certainty. Will it's sixth dungeon shock you with sheer nostalgia? There can be no doubt. Is there a particular reason I'm typing like this? I'm reading though 1984.

Let's not forget the ultimate spoiler... Zelda is a princess! There. I've ruined it for everyone now. I feel far behind. I've just got the iron boots and I'm heading back to Kakariko. |

Flash-made website, game engine, fiddling with actionscript, take your pick. I think I've got something figured out for the engine now anyway. It's only gonna be a short demo with a couple of mini-games, but I'll post up the result when I'm ready. |
