Scrabble is a very fun game. I recently bought it on Amazon for the family and friends. Once arrived, we had a family and friends night and played scrabble for 2 hours. It never got boring, after every half hour, the game got more exciting. The game itself is very simple to use, and you lay blocks down on the squares to spell words and also recieve points. The game was a huge hit arou...

The Wii is definently for me. Why did I buy a Wii in the first place? Well, I decided to get my family involved after seeing Wii Sports, as well as the low price of $250. To save even more money, I bought it on Ebay for $300 which included Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, Resident Evil 4, and Wii Sports. After playing Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, the flexibility and control of the wii...

Most of you, if not all, have heard of the Ipod. Personally, the Ipod Nano is a great product. The sound quality is fantastic, the size is very small (which easily fits in your pocket), and it can store over 500 songs. I have used it for years and it is excellent. You need to have a computer though to use it because there is iTunes and that is where you get your music. I really do not like how ...

I normally do not buy many jeans because they do not feel comfortable whenever I put them on. However, GAP has changed that. They have created numerous brands of Jeans that fit everyone, regardless of their size and skin sensitivity. A few days ago, I bought a new pair of jeans called EASY FIT. These were perfectly snug on my legs and they felt very comfortable. Not only were the comfortable, t...

The Wiimote, in all its splendor, is obviously used to play with the Wii. The Wiimote is kind of like a motion detector. Whenever you move the wiimote, a cursor on your TV screen will also move. This is definently a very unique control-scheme rather than your standard button controller. My family and I had a great time testing this new controller out and even one of my five-year old cousin...

I was given this laptop for free from my friend (Latitude D620). So far, this laptop has been everywhere with me because it is so versatile and has many features. For one, this laptop is EXTREMELY light. If I were to guess its weight, I would say it would weigh in at about 10 lbs. The screen is also very large for a laptop that is "22 inches, or about the size of a piece of paper with an e...

When I had to buy batteries (because my clock batteries died), I had to go to walmart and buy more. I was overwhelmed by the numerous battery companies out there, such as Duracell, Panasonic, and many more (which I cannot think of on the spot). However, I decided to go with Panasonic because they were heavy duty. Anyhow, I have had the SAME Panasonic heavy-duty batteries for a VERY long time. I...

I have used this car for more than 4 years. I bought it used because when buying it new, the demand was so great that there was a wait line, and the wait could take up to 4 months. Anyhow, whenever I got the Prius, I was surprised to find out how silent the engine ran. Whenever you start the car, you can barely hear it. I know the newer models are practically silent, but in the 2001 model (the ...

I picked this game up because of the huge popularity. I was a bit disappointed that there was a fee to pay monthly ($15 a month), however, I was happy with the gameplay and the graphics. There are numerous levels for you to beat, and you can stay up hours on end to play with your friends. However, when playing World of Warcraft, you usually come across people who are mean, such as killing ...

I recently picked up a VALVE/STEAM account and got Counter Strike: Source. When I picked up this game, I found out that it was purely multiplayer (meaning, there is no single player, it's purely online). This was exciting. As soon as I joined a server, I had to choose a weapon and just like that, the game started and I was playing. The game is very simple, and easy to play. You have to use ...

I recently went to Walmart and purchased a Nyko Charging Station for my Wii for $30.00. I was thinking that this would save me money in the long run because I wouldn't have to buy batteries to keep plugging into my Wiimote. Boy, was I wrong. When I arrived home and hooked up the Nyko Charging Station, I followed the instructions and set everything up. I put my two wiimotes on the charger an...

Mario Strikers Charged is a soccer-based game involving the numerous Nintendo characters. Whenever I bought Mario Strikers Charged, I was expecting that it would be like a normal soccer game. Boy, was I wrong. Mario Strikers Charged was so intense. The game was very exciting playing against the computer. It was also very challenging, considering there were different hardness levels for the comp...

I was a bit skeptical picking up batteries made from a different company besides the "popular" brands (Panasonic, Duracell, Energizer). However, considering the price was so cheap for a pack of 8+2 free batteries; I decided to buy them. Whenever I got home, I plugged them into my wiimote (which is why I bought the batteries). After over 6 hours of playing with the wiimote, the Wiimote...

I had never played a Resident Evil game before playing Resident Evil 4 on the Wii. Being the cheapest game on the wii so far ($30), I was skeptical of picking it up. However, after reading reviews for the game I definitely wanted to pick the game up. When I did, I was amazed. When I started the game, I became Leon. The controls were by far the best I have seen. Everywhere I pointed my wiimote, ...

The Wii Points card is one of the best accessories for the wii yet. Wii Points can be used for the Nintendo Wii to buy virtual console games. So far, Wii Points Cards can be purchased in retail stores; or, if you do not want to leave your house, you can purchase it online in the shop channel via credit card. I recently purchased a Wii Points card and it was so easy to redeem. The Wii Points Car...

I recently had three big pimples sprout up on my cheek. Thus, I went to my local "superstore" to find a product which could quickly get rid of these. I picked up Neutrogena's On-The-Spot™ Acne Treatment because it seemed like a lot of people picked it (there wasn't a lot left). I dabbed a small amount of cream from the bottle on top of my pimple before I went to sleep. W...

There's not many games that are easy on the eye for kids, yet very challenging for adults. I did not know that Zack & Wiki would be so challenging! I got this game for my kid because of the cartoonish style, thinking that it would be on the kid side. Boy, was I wrong. Zack & Wiki is a puzzle game. When I played it, the game was very challenging, even for me. I had a great time ...

I got a chance to play one level from Super Mario Galaxy at my local Gamestop. It was easy to learn the controls just by a little testing. The graphics of Super Mario Galaxy was also breathtaking. Each "planet" had a different terrain from the next. For example, I would be on a grassy field and the next I would be on the moon. Each "planet" was completely different from the ...

MLB Power Pros was recently released for the Wii. The game is praised in Japan, and it finally came over to the USA. The game plays great. You use the wiimote to swing the bat. It's very realistic. Unfortunantly, that's pretty much the only thing you can do with the wiimote. MLB Power Pros doesn't take any real advantage of the wii properties. Although the game has great content inc...

Carnival Games is based around obviously, the carnival. When I tried the game out, the mini-games were quite entertaining. Carnival Games has all the popular games you would find at a carnival. However, the control scheme is very limited. You are only limited to few motions with the Wiimote, making the carnival experience not that fun. Moreover, the mini-games do get boring after a few min...
