Hey, it’s weekend gaming time again! That means it’s time to indulge my addiction to Wii Sports Resort.
It’s the table tennis that’s got me hooked. I love how the control scheme feels so natural. The way you can apply such wicked top spin with the right flick of the wrist is immensely satisfying. Being able to participate in some form of tournament would be a welcome addition, but the manner in which the AI challengers ramp up in ability is some compensation.
But enough about me. What are you playing this weekend?

Saturday, August 1, 2009 at 10:09 AMFallout 3 still owns my life roughly 2 months later after purchase and I don’t see that changing too much soon but I might wrest its control long enough to go buy Fat Princess and have a bit of a multi-player bash.

Saturday, August 1, 2009 at 10:41 AMTable Tennis is my bitch in WSR – I was utterly hooked when I played it weeks ago, and that has not changed. ~1400 points and counting, it really is terrific (despite Yahtzee’s highly amusing protests)!

Saturday, August 1, 2009 at 10:46 AMI only recently got a wii and i’m also finding that spin you can do in wii sports bowling to be really satisfying. Picked up Brawl yesterday now just waiting on my cube controller to ship in :)

Saturday, August 1, 2009 at 10:48 AMFinally got Red Faction: Guerrilla back from SONY’s support center, so I’m getting stuck into that. I’ll also be trying to connect to an online game of Fat Princess, as I haven’t been able to as yet.

Saturday, August 1, 2009 at 11:01 AMPrefer the swordplay and archery myself, hoping they’ll implement those controls in the next wii zelda. I’ve been playing Little King’s Story, and i’m loving it. There really aren’t enough games where you take over the world!

Saturday, August 1, 2009 at 11:03 AMWipeout HD Fury and Fight Night Round 4. Only bought Fury yesterday so I’m exploring, while FNR4 both delights and infuriates me. Delighted by the online Championship that has could take over my life and infuriated by people who just want to spam the right stick. I guess I’m not good enough to shut them down but it fucking riles me royally. Box, you bastards.
Goose, I’m happily surprised such a casual Wii game has grabbed your attention so much. Keep us updated, yeah?

Saturday, August 1, 2009 at 12:00 PMBattlefield Heroes. I’m loving this game at the moment. Quick, fun achievement missions. Simple gameplay.
Though most of all not having to endure people accusing he ‘leet’ players of HaX00rInG (cough-CoD4-cough).
Maybe a bit of Monkey Island on the iPhone too.

HotDamn!
Saturday, August 1, 2009 at 12:15 PMI’ll be locking ‘n’ loading some Fear 2 this weekend. Looking forward to the recently announced SP DLC for it.
Btw, anyone else who’s played the game get annoyed by the noise made by your PDA when you bring it up??

Saturday, August 1, 2009 at 12:45 PMMaybe Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts. Maybe L4D. Maybe Sniper Elite. Maybe… who knows!? I’ve got so many cheap games I sort-of want to play, but nothing that really grips me enough to tear me away from everything else..

Saturday, August 1, 2009 at 2:32 PMGivin that Ashes 2009 Demo a good workout, getting back into WSR (the 3 point shootout and Sword Showdown are my picks), and maybe trying out the DLC for Fallout 3 on PC.
