My next purchase is MarioKart, then either a sports game or Galaxy. Anybody have a recommendation for a baseball game? I’ve heard Mario Galaxy is great.

Anybody have a recommendation for a baseball game?

I'm not a huge fan of the Wii in general, but recognize that if I had kids, I'd probably use/like it about 2700% more than I do now... right now it's been a DVD-coaster for about 5 months after I got mad at Resident Evil 4 and stopped playing it. One day I will find a good use for it... I might just try and stuff cold-cuts in the slot-loading tray and see if I can make it a meat dispenser for quick-n-easy lunch fixens'! Erik,

That said, I simply came home, plugged everything in, and started playing. Without reading the instructions. How do I get past Easy mode? Or how to I get the bonus songs? I played each song in Easy mode and have the high score on each one? Scott,

Fantastic fun and lost three pounds in a week. Nintendo and their development team have got it right again, it may not be the hottest on visuals but playability is fantastic.

The Guitar Hero games (I, II, III) are true greatness, how cool is it to be able to play songs like "Welcome to the Jungle" in front of thousands of sreamin' fans! Tip: Take the time to master hammer-ons and pull-ofs, it will pay major dividends down the road to Rock God Status! Also, spend the $$ to get a second guitar so two people can team up on lead/bass, lead/rythym or compete against each other. One more, don't tie the bandana too tight, you will cut off the oxygen and pass out... :) Awesome!
