The Wii is honestly designed around interacting with the game - even more so since the Wii fit came out. Reviews never talk about XBox360 and Halo3 are a great night for me and my family. Or how The complexity of Madden 09 made it a joy to play with my wife. No - they talk about the graphics, the epic number of complexities involved in this - or that. The bone crushing sound and realism. All these are well and good for some. I love video games, all types and styles. But now - the only counsel I'll actually look at is the Wii. Simply because it gets me off my butt, gets me interacting beyond watching TV with the family and DOING something with them - especially when it's cold and dark out.

Life well wasted, I'd say. A recreation ten times better than festering in front of the telebox. Colossal waste of time? Life well wasted, I’d say.
