    caleb_bell's Wii Sports (Wii)

    Game Log

    I have taken a break from the multiplayer version of Wii Sports and have started to play Wii boxing. I loved the idea of creating my own avatar (it looks a lot like me!), and I have gotten the hang of dodging and evading attacks. With each round it gets harder and harder to defend against and defeat each boss. I love a challenge and Wii sports definitely provides a good one.

    In my generation, a lot of games have centralized on graphics, cutscenes, and story line but Wii Sports is truly unique because it centralizes on player interaction, and emersion. The characters are simply comprised of blocks, yet the idea of being in control of a character through one's own movements, make the game seem less passive like most video games and more active. I find it quite impressive that games such as boxing, are capable of detecting a 3 dimensional range of motion and through moving the controller towards the player, the character is able to duck and dodge.

    Although the controls of Wii Sports are very innovative and give the game a great amount of its luster, they are not exactly perfect; there is often a lag present when the player moves and the character reacts, which as imagined can cause a lot of problems. There were many times when I would deliver a punch and my character responded too late and instead of dealing damage, I received it, which can be very costly after awhile. There were many times when I tried to deliver accurate punches during the game and the system was simply irresponsive and in the end rather than landing carefully calculated punches, I was forced to succumb to simply flailing around.

    Game Log: Wii Sports

    Wii sports is a compilation of sports games such as boxing,golf,tennis, bowling and baseball that uses the wii-mote in innovative ways to simulate these actual sports. Through customized avatars, players can compete head-to-head with each other ( up to 4) or against the computer.

    Wii Sports is one of the first games to demonstrate the new innovative ways that the wii allows players to interact with each other and their environment. What makes Wii Sports stand out from previous games that I have played is that it is easy to look past the usual shallow elements used to critique games such as graphics, and focus on the game play experience.

    Bowling was one of the most interesting games to play because my nephews enjoyed it, and they were actually able to give me some competition in the game! The controls used to play bowling were very fluid and responsive, and it was quite an experience to see my 8 year old nephew bowl strike after strike.
