    Entry #2

    Summary

    During the second time of play I enjoyed the game more now since I was more capable of having more control over how to perform the control functions in the game. With the combination of the nun chuck and the Wii remote you are at hand to play as if you were playing yourself. My favorite part of the whole game is how you shoot the ball. You shoot it the same way that you would shoot a real ball.
    However, the one thing that frustrated me was the free throw shots. The game does tell you how to perform the certain function, but it was a big hassle for me to t get the hang of it. I entirely missed all my shots the first few time that I played this game. After playing for a while you get the hang of how everything works. And the sense that you know how everything works increases the level of fun that you receive out of the game. I love this game and It gives me a high level of pleasure and fun.

    Design

    The design of the game was for me, okay. I have seen this game in other systems such as the x-box 360 and it punches some great graphics in their. It would seem that the design in a system like the x-box 360 is much greater, but the design on the Wii is enough to leave the player in amazement. In a way the feature of each player is designed pretty well. They look more better then other NBA Live games that I have played through the previous years.
    The overall design of the game is enough to give the player the pleasure of fun that he or she needs. In my perspective I don’t have any other issue with the design of the game. It may not be top notch as in the x-box 360 system but that doesn’t bother me at all. I would rather have the radical techniques such as how you shoot the ball with the Wii remote rather than just punching in buttons to shoot the ball as you would do in any other system such as the x-box 360. The design was great and I really enjoyed playing the game.

    Summary
    In NBA Live 2008 the player has the option to pick out any of the thirty NBA teams and play against any other team. With the greatest players you can play in any mode that features an ordinary play to even the All-Star game that depicts the best players. This game is just the simple fundamental basketball where you attempt to score points either through jump shots, three points shots, dunks, and many others. Through this you attempt to beat the other team to come about a winner.

    Game play

    The first time that I played this game I got confused due to specific control movements that the player has to perform to play in the game. But, I am a person who likes to play basketball, so of course it was a given factor that there would be a big percentage that I would be enjoying this game anyway. It was just a matter of time that I would get the hang of the control but I really enjoyed playing this game. It has many features that allow you to make it your choice to do whatever you want. You’re the one who controls the team that allows you to control the player in the game.
    I played for about a really long time because I really enjoyed the experience of the game. The very elements that you use when you play basketball in reality are attributed to the game. For instance, the way you shoot the ball when you play out in the park on a court is the same way that you would shoot it in a game. You treat the Wii control as if it were the real ball and you would use the same technique to shoot the ball. This game lets you really interactive with it so you could feel as if you were really playing.

    GAME ENTRY #2

    GamePlay
    During the second time of play I continued to enjoy the games. Yet there were some moments where some games brought frustration due to the way they were controlled. For example, the table tennis game provided a level of fun but it seemed that it was somewhat of a hassle to control the paddle. The paddle of which of course was resembled by the wii remote had its own little flaws. It was a bit hard to hold the paddle in order to hit the ball. Soon enough I continued to other games and left this one behind.
    Most of the games were satisfying and they sustained their own unique details that made them fun. After the first time of play I really enjoyed playing all the games. Now that I continue to play the games I cant seem to stop playing. They are not entirely addictive but its just that they provide a great deal of fun. Its not just like other games where they provide a complicated task and game play. This wii play is just simple fun. Its the fun that gets the kick out of you.

    DESIGN

    The design of the Wii Play is very much similar to the 'Wii Sports' game. The same type of architecture is used. The basic gereal format of landscapes and people. Meaining that this game does not hold a high quality design as would the design of an X-Box game. The people as I said before represent somewhat of a stick figure person. Just the basic face, body, and arms. Nothing of such sort of detailed description just rather the basic form.
    I know that many other people would say that the design of this game is poor. But for me the design of this game is 'OK'. It represents itself in its unique way and contructs a level of fun. In a way I would of liked this game to have the big designs as other systems do. But this system provides a quality of fun that is enjoyable for everyone. Despite how the design is, it sustains a high level of satisfaction and fun.

    GAME ENTRY #1

    Summary
    -In the 'Wii Play' there are a series of nine games that you can fully engage in. These are games such as Pool, shooting range, table tennis, tanks, and many others. Each single game holds its own set of controls that allows you to play the game as it is. In pool for instance the stick becomes the wii remote. In shooting range your wii remote turns into the gun. These and many other factors make the game interesting and easy to dig into.

    GamePlay
    -I was excited to know that the wii play holds multiple games and not just one sophisticated game. Having received a great deal of fun from the 'wii sports' I imagined that the wii play would hold a greater level of fun. Once I played all the games and had a taste of what they were the one game that struck out to me was 'Tanks'. Having to use stradegy this game was fun but although frustrating as well goign highher in the levels. This game focuses on trying to destroy your enemies before they destroy you. This maybe the very reason why it was so out going for me. This sort of competition lifts up the excitement in someone and it did to me.
    Having this type of excitement at hand I also enjoyed the game, 'Find Mii'. This game is meant to trick your mind and leave you confused. This game challenges the mind while at the same time produces a high level of fun. A group of people are set on the screen and you have to find the very two people that look the same. You have to do this in the amount of time that they give you. And its the fact that they give you a certain amount of time that gives that jump and kick. I was enitrely satisfied with this game and had a great time as well.
