Game log #1
Summary:
Wii Sports presents the player with classic sports such as tennis, baseball, bowling, golf and boxing. The player uses the ingenious wireless wiimote and nunchunk attachment to parallel motions on screen with tangible movements in the real world. Each game features a standard play mode, training mode, and multiple player options.
Game play:
Wii Sports grabbed my attention wholly when it had a mode for creating a "mii" because I'm a sucker for personalization. Making your own "mii" was so funny, because all the options you can choose from when creating your character are so cartoonish, but, if chosen properly, can actually resemble people's facial charactersitics and body type well. My friend and I spent like half an hour doing this, adding and subtracting different noses, lips, mustaches, etc.
We then started to play Wii Tennis, which was fun for me, mainly because I play tennis in real life, and was happy to see that you could put top spin on a ball to confuse the opponent. The only thing that bugged me was the fact that i couldn't control which direction my mii was going, and my back hand didn't slice as well as real life. All in all, the first hour of gameplay was fun, and I beat my friend at doubles.
