Brace yourself for a new set of tricks, tracks and ways to race. The included Wii Wheel transforms your Wii Remote into a steering wheel that feels great in your hands, while the Wii Remote and Nunchuk controller supply a classic control style for veterans of this racing series. Either way, you'll be able to perform impressive speed-boosting tricks, such as jumps, flips and wheelies.You can zip through brand-new tracks and arenas, and also tour classic courses from Super Mario Kart, Mario Kart 64, Mario Kart: Super Circuit, Mario Kart: Double Dash and Mario Kart DS. There are even options for trying all-new motorbikes that have their own special tricks and techniques. The action gets fast, furious and funny when you race in Mario Kart Wii.

One of the best Wii Games
on October 26, 2008
Posted by: tvern23
I love mario kart Wii. And using the wheel I am so much better than I ever was on any of the previous versions. Although I'm told if you're used to racing games with a normal controller the wheel can be a hard adjustment, but for only an occasional game player like myself it is great to use. Its so nice to be able to met up with friends and play online or just play with random people worldwide.
What's great about it: can't beat 4 player racing against friends, or racing worldwide online
What's not so great: for not a pro gamer the bikes are kind of hard to use
I would recommend this to a friend!

In a galaxy far, far away, the legend of an iconic villain grows ~ and you are at his right hand. Darth Vader's plan to exterminate all the Jedi has been set into action, and as the Sith Lord's Secret Apprentice, your actions will be crucial in ensuring his quest is a success. Unleash the powers of the Force as you scour the galaxy for remaining Jedi, and prepare to confront decisions that will affect not just your destiny, but that of the entire universe. In this chapter in the Star Wars saga, the path you choose may lead to an outcome that will rock your perception of Star Wars continuity down to its foundation.Experience the power of the Force like never before. In Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, you'll explore the era between Episode III: Revenge of the Sith and Episode IV: A New Hope as you toil as Darth Vader's Secret Apprentice, assisting him in his quest to rid the universe of Jedi. Wield four core Force powers against your enemies as you execute amazing, never-before-seen combos that let you not just Force grip enemies, but Force grip them in midair, zap them with lightning, then drop them to the ground and make them explode like bombs. Incredible new technology brings the story and action to life with stunning realism. With the debut of Digital Molecular Matter from Pixelux and NaturalMotion Ltd.'s euphoria behavioral simulation engine, you'll experience both environmental objects and interactive characters that move and behave just like they would in real life, from wood that breaks and splinters like actual wood to characters that think and act adaptively just like real human beings, producing different outcomes every time. The result is an incredible, immersive gaming experience in which your every act delivers real consequences. The Star Wars universe will never be the same.

Its ok but could be better
on September 28, 2008

Its a fun game but can't do multiplayer in story mode only dual mode. I like the actions you can do with the wii remotes. The graphics don't look great, like ps2 graphics, and response time could be better.
What's great about it: can use force and light saber with wii remotes
What's not so great: graphics not great, can't do multiplayer

Great Gaming Computer
on September 24, 2008
Posted by: tvern23
This is a great laptop for gaming especially if you don't have thousands to spend. ASUS makes a good computer. Its got a good video card, nice display,so far plenty of hard drive space, and it looks pretty awesome. No real complaints except bluetooth would be nice for more wireless connectivity, and i wish it had a bit faster processor. But no regrets on the purchase.
What's great about it: great graphics/display, lots of storage space
What's not so great: could be alittle faster, bluetooth would be nice

Good Product Does what its supposed to do
on September 23, 2008
Posted by: tvern23
I don't have much to say about it. It works well, it does what I bought it to do. It upconverts my normal DVDs to HD and it records to DVDs. Using the ir blaster you can easily just hit record and it'll start recording from the cable box. Picture quality on the recorded DVDs is good, not great. And theres a lot of different settings I don't know what they do or how to use them. But other than that good product.
What's great about it: Good picture quality, records easily from cable
What's not so great: not sure how to use all the different settings
