Spongebob Squarepants: Battle for Bikini Bottom.

Masterful platforming and a lot of charm.

Wii Music.

No joke.



i LOVED Final fantasy Crystal chronicles: The crystal bearer, it was original, epic and looked great on Wii , and motion controlled combat was cool even if it was very limited. the constant minigames and the nice atmosphere were also a plus...everybody hated it

That game would have been PERFECT if they have added the classic FF battle system, but instead, you were forced to use the Crystal Bearer powers everytime, which in my opinion detracted from the experience.

 

Everything else was awesome. You could customize your character (with rendered cutscenes), you could screw around in the cities, explore, and the story was interesting. Oh, and the graphics were awesome for the Wii!



Star Fox: Assault. The gameplay nailed the fun arcade feel of 64, the TPS portions were pretty fun, and the story had plenty of great moments (that 7 man Star Fox+Wolf team union at the end was awesome).  I'd have to say it's my favorite in the series after 64, and the multiplayer being the best in the series by far. My brother and I killed so much time on that....letting each other stand on the other pilot's wing, only to do a barrel roll and let him fall to his death. Or crashing Arwings and Wolfens into buildings.

Don't worry, we both grew up to be respectable citizens.

Also did anyone buy Custom Robo here? I think that game is extremely underrated, its one of my favorite games on gamecube.

Yes! I loved that game. I found it in a bargain bin for like $10, and didn't expect to like it so much. I need a find a Gamecube and replay it sometime.

Star wars the force unleashed 2 I enjoyed it very much just that the story was so short I was disappointed with it



I like Lost Kingdoms. Such a fun game. It had a good sequel too that elaborated upon it's concept a decent amount.

i liked too.i still own it. it was a very basic game but the combat was fun, making use of the cards in real time combat and it ran at sleek 60 fps which by year 2001 was a feat.

Oh god yes, this game deserves a lot more attention. It was really a gem, for a time it was my favourite 3D platformer. The Movie game was also alright but then Creature from the Krusty Krab was when it started to lose it's magic.



Perfect Dark Zero

For a lot of people, this game ruined Perfect Dark, and as a fan of the original game, trust me, I do understand.

...But this game was just so terrible it was awesome. The gameplay was solid and recognizably Perfect Dark, but the storytelling was just so absurdly bad almost every mission made me burst out laughing. Like when the Carrington Institute guys lose a guy in the mission you meet them in...and as soon as you're done with the mission Johnathan goes "Man, I want a beer." Dude, your buddy just DIED.

And Jack Dark dying has got to be the WORST MAJOR CHARACTER DEATH OF ALL TIME. The villain killing him is so forced it is literally counter-productive to her own plans. No, seriously. You were supposed to bring him back alive for plot reasons, numb-skull.

That, and I picked it up for two bucks. Nothing jades the taste buds like cheapness.
