Looking for a game recommendation
« on: August 01, 2006, 05:30:01 PM »
I'm looking for a birthday gift for my nephew. I got him a GameCube but every time I get him a game for it he calls me and says "I'm not a girl."

Get him the Olsen Twins game.  That'll teach him to complain about your gifts.

Pick-Up Sticks!  That's a great game.

lol.  This is ironic.  I actually have read some of the announcements.
Wind Waker was 12 bucks at K-Mart.
Rayman 3 is good.  I don't know how old your nephew is.  You might want to play a little to see if the language is ok for him (It lets up after the beginning).
DDR: Mario Mix.  This is actually one of my favorite DDR's.  (I have most of them for the PS2) Not because its particularly great for a DDR but it's a good beginner one and unlike all the others actually has a story mode that mixes things up. Ok, has a story mode period.
Battalion Wars.  If you think he's developed enough for it.
PSO.  What's more fun then killing things? over and over again.
Four Swords.  I enjoyed this game even alone.

I would suggest all of these above.  You know how to read the rankings and use them accordingly but your nephews age would be nice because those might be too advanced.

Why?  Nothing really appeals to me on the XBox.
You wanted suggestions.

I mean you could scare him with Eterneal Darkness
Heighten his awareness of the Female Form with P.N. 03
Open up the GBA Library with Gameboy Player
Introduce him to a post apocalyptic futures with Megaman X Collection
If he wasn't frustrated enough with that one you could always give him Viewtiful Joe
Show him the only good card base battle system with Baten Kaitos

Yep
Hence the comments.  I wanted to put the pony adventure game that was on Penny-arcade but I couldn't find the comic to link. ;P

Oh... Also you could just get him the Noble Pink DSLite therapists would love that. (With Sprung.)

Just buy him an NES and like ten randomly-chosen games (buy someone's old collection off Ebay - be sure they had below average taste in games first).  The bad controls, utter lack of save features, and high difficulty levels will either put hair on his chest or quit his whinin'.

Nah, Just get him every game Bill reviewed and tell him that he has to watch the review for it all to make sense.
