He came in my place right after and just plopped down on the ground and found the piece to adjust in about a minute and called the other guys lazy dumbasses.

DANG the sense of momentum when you double-S-Rank a stage full of downhill slides, wall-jumps and ceiling runs is the best thing. Favorite game of this sort for me since Super Meat Boy.

Between this and the proper bongos version of Donkey Kong Jungle Beat, I'm super-happy on high functioning platform games at the moment.

After a short amount of time spent with it, the game's balance feels kind of rough. Now, given, I'm kind of rusty at Puyo Puyo, but I was getting trounced against a player who was playing Tetris on their side. There's much more complexity to Puyo than Tetris, and I feel that makes it not only a slower-paced game, but also one where it's easier to just get completely screwed.

Still, it's an interesting mix, and I need to get back into practice. There's also a bizarre "mash Puyo and Tetris together" mode, that's as intriguing as it is weird.

And yes, of course region free. Only region-encoded game I've ever heard of was the first Persona 4 Arena.

Boom Blox is the best party game on Wii. Guessing the game bombed (har har) hard that EA didn't milk it to infinity. It was also supposed to be the first of three Speilberg projects with EA, not sure if the last two ever surfaced.

There was a sequel.

Was thinking more of how it never got ported to Kinect or Move.

Reading up on it, interesting how The Spielburg 3 he was supposed to make with EA kinda turned into the Spielburg 1 plus an update. Looks like they couldn't get the Wii head tracking thing to work and he lost interest.

More Iron Fist and digitized armpits

I hope you got that Pit-Fighter board on the cheap. It is not a very good game. ;)

It will be in 30 years when all the baords have been trashed to turn the cabs into gas station digital bingo machines
