No Business Naming Things

In yet another example of our fiscal responsibility we purchased Zack and Wiki the other day.  It was inevitable - I spent a lot of time extolling its virtues and I was starting to feel like a hypocrite for not buying it.   When we saw it at EB Games and Lexy suggested we buy it I couldn’t help but agree.

We put about 5 hours into it yesterday, getting roughly 2/3rds of the way through.  My review is unabashedly positive.  It’s an excellent game that really shows off the potential of the Wii.  The art direction is great (making up for the lackluster horesepower of the Wii), it’s funny, the puzzles are intuitive but satisfying, and the controls are spot on with the exception of the difficult rhythm game.  If it doesn’t spawn a sequel I hope that it at least spawns some quality imitators.
