Nintendo Wii Latest Games - Force Unleashed

For all fans of the Stars War genre - the latest release due out today for the Nintendo Wii - The Force Unleashed is eagerly anticipated. I will shortly be picking up my copy and will give you a full review of the Force Unleashed for the Nintendo Wii.

Another Star Wars game - Light Saber Battles is also shortly due out and I'll give that a rave as well.

Recent Wii games that I've played include Lego - Stars Wars the complete saga (Stars Wars once again - I think we are following a theme here).





Lego Stars Wars is a great game for the family to play with the right amount of 'slaughter' of enemies combined with puzzles. If you get too stuck on a level there are a number of walkthrough's available online. Buy the complete saga - as it covers the whole series and generally follows the story lines of the movies with a few extra comedic additions. I found using lasers not as much fun as using the light saber so although you can play most of your favorite star wars characters I mainly stuck with the Jedi. If you carefully block laser shots you can return the shot back to the sender - in fact to defeat Darth Maul you need to block laser shots from his accompanying troops.

You will need both the Wii remote and nunchuck and the game is more fun if you play with two players. Some puzzles require two players working together in a team effort and rather than having to constantly switch between players - play with a friend. You run around defeating opponents, battling end of level super opponents and collecting numerous lego money, gold and hearts.

Apart from the 6 levels following the six movies there are a whole heap of bonus levels, and sub-games. Not every level involves just slicing and dicing through your enemies. There are a number of flying levels - including taking down the AT-ST vehicles with two cables.

Lego Star Wars proved such a hit that there have followed a number of other Lego games - including Lego Indiana Jones, and Lego Batman - look for them in future reviews.
