Rayman to Support Wii Balance Board

In the hunt of searching for fat people using the Wii Fit board I stumbled on this. Doesn’t seem like any kind of advertising for wii fit since Rayman isn’t published by Nintendo. You decide.

Wii Fit, They Fat

Just a word of precaution, don’t stare directly at him. I’m relatively certain that his belly is some part of a conspiracy. First his stomach hypnotizes you next thing you know Nintendo will start sending subliminal messages to you. Or maybe its Google trying to take over the world by sending subliminal messages through youtube!

This video inspired me to find more fat people for you to enjoy. NSFW after jump.

One Mega Pile of Games

Mega Man has apparently entered the Guinness Book of world records for most games in a single series. Even worse Guinness didn’t even get all the games. They missed a bunch of them starring him and didn’t count the games he appeared in. To bad he wasn’t in Super Smash Brothers Brawl, could have added one more to the tally.

Well, Guiness picked the right character, but they’ve missed a bunch of games! According to Capcom, a few more that weren’t mentioned are…

What Ever Happened to Quality Control

Whatever happened to quality control.  I’m sure someone at Capcom is getting fired for this screw up. As many already know that the cover art for Okami Wii was botched and has and IGN watermark on it. Capcom is doing its part for the few people that might actually care and allowing a cover art redemption.  This allows you to pick from on of three new covers to replace your botched original.  Now there is another development.  The Brady Games Strategy guide has an IGN watermark on it as well. Since they both used the same image from Capcom for the picture it would make sense.  That would be if the watermark wasn’t slightly higher on the guide.

Uwe Boll Denied World of Warcraft Movie Rights

MTV’s Movie Blog reports that Uwe Boll has asked for the movie rights for Blizzards popular MMORPG, World of Warcraft, and was ultimately denied. I’m not sure if Uwe Boll just wanted to see their reaction, or if he truly thought he had a chance to gain those rights. In case you didn’t know, Uwe Boll is the world’s biggest video-game-to-movie failure as a director. I would rather watch Disney’s straight to DVD sequels than his bland interpretations of what a video game brought into theater should be. There’s been a petition started that asks for Uwe Boll to stop making movies once and for all, and Mr. Boll himself has said that if it reaches one million signees he would seriously consider retiring. We can only hope. Sign the petition here!

"I’m Uwe Boll, and I approve this message!"

Okami Wii Reviewed

Okami for the Wii is to put it simply, a revolutionary spin on a traditional style of game play. You don�t gain xp like more traditional RPGs, instead it’s more Zelda style where your gear and solar energy (hearts) reflect your level. You can basically replace all the different specialized equipment that you would find in a Zelda game like gale boomerang, torch, etc. with different brush techniques you learn throughout the game. They brush techniques do make great use of the Wii�s pointer and are a fun addition.

Wii Must Know How To Go

Mario kart Wii has a lot of different controller options. With any completive and especially an online game you of course want the best scheme possible. This calls for a round up! Five different controllers one victor in probably the most unscientific scientific study ever brought to you VIA JoyStiq.

We guessed beforehand that the GameCube Controller would dominate in every category, so it was somewhat unexpected when the Wii Remote and Nunchuk combination fared so well, especially when using a bike. Not surprisingly, the Classic Controller had almost the exact same times as the GCN controller.

Valve Confirms What We Already Guessed

Valve’s Doug Lombardi has told Eurogamer that you won’t see a new Portal this year.

Instead, the developer will knuckle down and try to do something as revolutionary as Half-Life 2 was to the original Half-Life - because that’s the Valve way.

Every Valve game has a long development cycle. That cycle has yet to let us down. I applaud the way Valve does things and wish more companies would follow suit. Then again Valve is some weird freak of nature compared to other companies who have to live or die by what their publisher wants.
