    • Here's a shocker: Link's Crossbow Training really sucks.

          Less than one hour of gameplay, and it's boring and REALLY easy at that.

          And the "Wii Zapper" it came with is a piece of crap.

          • It's a pack-in for a peripheral that doesn't do anything... what were you expecting?

              A. If Wii product meets low expectations, in quality proclaim low quality igore expectations. If it had high expectations, but failed to meet them, proclaim that it failed expectations. If it met or exceeded high expectations, go to B
              B. If Wii product exceeds expectations in quality and met low expectations in sale, ignore expectations, and proclaim low sales. If it failed to meet expectations in sales, proclaim that it faied expectations. If it met or exceeded high expectations of sales AND quality, go to C
              C. If Wii product exceeds expectations in quality and sales, ignore expectations, and actual performance, and compare unfavorably to the most comparable 360 product that did better. Take the 360 product that did better in sales OR in quality, as needed.

                  I was expecting nothing. If you look at prior posts here, you'll see that.

                  Other people here, who shall remain nameless, thought the game looked cool and the peripheral was a great idea.

                    I thought it looked cool. Mainly the idea of doing something with a crossbow. Crossbows are cool. I didnt realize it was just a spinoff of Zelda.

                    I guess Im not supposed to mention that an idea looks cool unless I go research the game, we wouldnt want casual discussion of games here.

                    Anyway, Im busy playing Crusader Kings, which really IS cool, so I'll be okay without Links.

                    Lovely to know that Asher is watching every single remark I make about games.


                    BTW, let me say that Assasin's Creed also looks cool. Cause of the ability to walk around 12th century Damascus, doncha know. Despite the mixed reviews. Whenever I get a platform that will play it (not anytime soon, I expect) I will consider it.

                      Pretty much as expected though.

                              good. But I forget, who did think it looked cool? I looked back at the thread that I remembered it coming up in, and I definitely said that explicitly, I dont think anyone else did, and Kuci made a remark about me thinking that.

                              • Ive seen all kinds of specials advertised for all the consoles (and for PC as well - to go offtopic there was a DB special for a budget desktop WITH a monitor and printer for $200)

                                I guess its always helpful to have the 360 specials highlighted here though, in case anyone wasnt aware of them.
