I was shopping yesterday (and returning to Gamestop the used version of the HVS/Sega game Tournament of Legends because I could not the controllers in sync to regenerate).

At target I saw another HVS game, this one published by Red Wagon Games. It is ... wait for it ... Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer.

That's right, HVS is doing a budget title based on a 45-year old TV property.

Any played it yet? (It could be a seasonal buy for families).

I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble.

Mike, you are probably one of the few people on this website that admits to buying "garbage" games like that

If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

I mean, the PS2 and GBA had the lion's share of those last gen, and that was one way those systems sold so many games overall.

A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

I'm still waiting for Gladiator AD to launch. I refuse to accept that tournament of legends was the same "enhanced" game...

It was that they were the first notable developer outside of Nintendo to say they were treating the Wii like a real system, not just something to "test" or throw a bone.
