Maybe its a generation thing.  I concur with Lindy, I know he's a bit older as I am, and I've known this term was derogatory since elementary school, so I've always avoided it.

Saw this movie last night, I'd give it a 5 out of 5.  The contrast between cultures and generations was very well done, and Clint was just downright hilarious.  "Grrrr....."

Are these levels still up to play or has MM deleted them?  If they're still up, what do I search for?

If it were not for the visuals, I would not have purchased it.  It really ads a visceral element to the game, without them it would have been a bit "blah".

TalkBack / Re: Nintendo Reveals Two New Titles and Upcoming Release Schedule

Excitebots™: Trick Racing has elements that make it one of the more unique racing games on the market. It launches April 20 and lets everyone in the family use the Wii Wheel™ accessory in unique and changing environments, play fun minigames and perform crazy tricks in a game that builds on the Excitebike™ and Excite Truck™ franchises. 

I told Nintendo I long time ago they should combine Excite Bike and Excite Truck into one game, and it seems they took me up on it!  Your welcome.

I just watched Gametrailer's review of it, and was about to make a thread about it.

When I watched this I was thinking of two things...

- If this was a WiiWare title, would it get highly praised and would be the jewel among WiiWare's crown or would it be mocked, ridiculed, and bashed because of the concept? Not to sound fanboyish but considering "Endless Ocean" got trashed because of its relaxing concept it wouldn't be surprised if this was bashed as well. And yet on PS3, its being praised as art...

Endless Ocean got bashed?

Yes it did one magazine refused to review it because "it's not a game"

That one magazine being the now dead EGM. I remember that quite vividly, it really did bother me.

Karma's a b###!

Though it does have a Meta score of 72 (same as Excite Truck) it does appear some outlets like LameSpot and LamePro game it exceedingly low scores.  Just another remember of why I stay away from there.

Looks like Bozon gave Onslaught a 6/10.  Considering he's got pretty low standards, I think I'm going to pass on this one.

I really liked Vince until I found out he's the douche responsible for The Underground Comedy Movie.

Then again, I hear he's trying to sue Scientology, so he can't be all bad, right?

How is Onslaught?  It looks pretty generic.  My initial assumption is WiiWare World gave it a high score b/c its the only FPS on WiiWare.  I hope I'm wrong though, as a solid FPS on my Wii at all times would be cool.

How many people here are investing or already have a fight stick vs using an ordinary controller?  If you do have a fight stick, how do you play it?  Place it on a coffee table and lean over, or put it on a stand like you're in the arcade?  I'd like to have one, but then I wouldn't be able to lay back and play.
