The biggest game this season has pretty much been determined. Half of the expected holiday release schedule has been pushed to next year in an attempt to get out of Modern Warfare 2′s way. Infinity Ward’s newest trailer has not only confirmed that part of the game will take place on US soil, but it showed a heated battle in Washington DC. In fact, the battle in Modern Warfare 2 could be what leads up to the events in Fallout 3. That being said, there is one thing that Modern Warfare 2 doesn’t have: Pelvic thrusting.
In Nintendo’s never ending quest to sell a gaming console to non-gamers, Wii Fit is already getting a sequel. Wii Fit Plus has fewer menus and 15 new mini-games, all aimed to get you in even better shape. Plus, lower-impact games have been added in order to make the game more senior-citizen friendly. Apparently the only demographic that isn’t swimming in Wiis is the nations retired folks. With a new price tag and a game aimed towards seniors, expect ads in the AARP and a Wii in every retirement home.
I am a bit skeptical myself. I mean, its a bit humiliating to get told that I need to lose some weight from a video game, when they are definitely a contributing factor. One of the mini-games has you standing on the balance board and waving your arms wildly like a chicken. This is the most humiliating thing happening to gamers at the hands of a chicken since getting swarmed by them in Zelda. Still, you can’t argue with results, and a trimmed waistband is always nice.
