I picked up my console at midnight on saturday and raced back to the dorms to find 10 people waiting in front of my door to play it. The only mutiplayer game that i had was Wii sports (both zelda and COD3 are single player) so i ended up having to play that game first. Everyone that was there enjoyed playing with the console and were surprised how accurate the wii mote was at detecting movements. After they left at 2 am i got to start some real gaming action with zelda and COD 3.
Zelda lives up to the hype as the true successor to Ocarina of time. the controls are flawless in the game and the gameplay (so far) has been great. I really cant say anything bad about this game, the simple fact is that it might be the best console game for any next generation system (its basically a two horse race between Gears and Zelda as the best currently availible next gen game). COD3 is a good launch title for the wii, but unlike zelda it is not nearly as polished. My Biggest problem with COD3 is that you cannot adjust the sensitivity so it takes a good half hour to get used to the sensitivity. My other complaint about the game is no online or multiplayer mode. Why was this excluded from the wii version is beyond me. however even with these downfalls this game is still good and is a good example of what first person shooters will play like on the new console.
That could be true, the gamestop i went to the manager came out at 9 and started taking us in one by one to pre order the console. i was number 7 in line and i got there at 8am. ended up with about 30 people in line before i was done (at 9:50am).
