From Charles Herold, your Guide to Wii Games

I finally managed to review Spider-Man: Edge of Time. Readers of this newsletter may recall I was enthusiastic after playing a bit of it, but alas you will see my early enthusiasm wasn't fully justified. I also review the latest game in the Family Game Night series,without much enthusiasm.

Enthusiasm is on the way though. I plan to post a review of The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, and it will contain as much enthusiasm as one could possibly want. It is easily the best thing to ever come out for the Wii.


"Spider-Man: Edge of Time" Reviewed

I'm a little late in reviewing Spider-Man: Edge of Time. I kept emailing the Activision PR flack asking where it was, and she kept saying, we mailed it to you, but finally she came to accept that no, the shipping department had not, in fact, sent me the game, and she mailed me a copy.

Was my gritty determination to acquire this game, and to play it even as other, more recently minted games arrived in the mail, rewarded? Read my review of Spider-Man: Edge of Time to find out.


Family Game Night 4: The Game Show Reviewed
I've never played any games in the Family Game Night Party Game series; honestly the idea of mini-games centered around board games never seemed that interesting to me.
