Express Action Sports

I would recommend the Atari VCS for people who like retro games
For the person who likes sports games I’d suggest the PS1

NBA Jam came out for the Snes so for sports I would recommend that for "Starting Gamers"

For RPG Gamers the Snes and PS1 had more RPGs then the xbox, xbox,360, gba, nds, 3ds, wii, wiiu, and ps3 combined.

For shooters I would recommend Golden Eye on the N64 since it’s what sent the FPS from indie to mainstream.

For Online gamers I would recommend PC because it supports every MMO out there.

For Platformers I would make them go back to their roots with either sonic on sega or mario on the NES

For Turn Based Strategy I would send them back to basics with Shining Force on the SEGA

For Survival Horror I would put them on the PS1 for Resident Evil 2.

For action adventure Link holds the crown on the N64.

For racing Gran Turismo 1 on the ps1 would be a good start.

I have an xbox 360

I just got a Nintendo Wii, but I only have the Wii sports game and it’s beginning to become boring. I don’t want to buy any equipment, like baseball bats and stuff.
I have thought about Harry Potter 6, because I like Harry potter and kind of action games.. Can you recommend any good games?

I suggest you look on retailer websites (gamestop, walmart, ebgames, amazon, etc) and see what the bestselling games are for the wii. Also, I believe Amazon is still having a black Friday sale on video games right now, and gamestop is having a buy 2 pre-owned games get 1 free sale. Good luck!

Games to consider:
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
Call of Duty 3
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare
Call of Duty: Black Ops
Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
Metroid: Other M
Super Smash Bros Brawl
Super Mario Bros
Super Mario Galaxy 2
Resident Evil
Band Hero
Rock Band
Sonic and Sega All Stars
Animal Crossing
Donkey Kong Country Returns
Wii Fit (if you’re into that)
Just Dance 2
Lego Harry Potter
Endless Ocean: Blue World
Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games

PS, PSone, pocket station, PS2, PSX, PSP, PS3

And what is your favourite part of that console?
@Braxton: PS=wider, PSone=less wide

The PlayStation 2. And not because I own one… It’s because of the amazing game library. So many games, from all kinds, it is just the perfect console.

I mean, let’s face it:

Wii = Mostly family and kid friendly games.

Xbox 360 = Mostly Blood, gore, action, and shooting.

PlayStation 3 = Mostly shooting, action, and blood (just like Xbox 360).

PC = Lots of online games, shooting, action, and some calssics.

PlayStation 2 = TONS of games from each category. Sports, "childish", action, shooting, blood & gore, racing, music, RPG’s, fighting, etc.

The PS3 and Xbox 360 and Wii do contain some games from each category, but not like the PS2. While the Wii, Xbox 360, and PS3 are mostly focusing on a couple categorys, the PS2 has a huge selection from each category.

It’s convenient, since you don’t have to choose whether you want kid friendly games if you have kids and you care about them more than yourself, or action if you like action, shooting if you like it, etc. Basically, from the PS2, you can enjoy all of them. If I would just own my Wii, I would definitely sell it by now. Since it barely contains shooting and action games, and mostly kid friendly games. If I would just own a PS3/Xbox 360, I would have a problem since it would lack some kid friendly/family games.

In PS2, I have tons of games, from tons of categories. Plus it makes a great DVD player.

Sorry if I kind of went off-topic when I talked about other consoles, I just wanted to show why I prefer the PS2 over ANY console.

My mom and I are really into the wii and that is our bonding time together every day. We have beat every game we have and don’t know good games to buy that we wont waist our money on . No sports games please though.
thanks for the help 3doors down lover ( nothing bout the subject but i love 3 doors down too) , but i already have mariokart and we beat it. thanks anyways !

Trauma Center: Secod Opinion, Okami, and Twilight Princess.

Also, for mother daughter things, you and your mom could get any Legend of Zelda game. Puzzles and action, it’s a phenomenal series.

-P.S. Twilight Princess is a Zelda game for Wii.

By large, modern media is pretty much "politically correct" and even feminized in certain area.

It seem like video game is one of the very few, if not the only form of media in modern society that isn’t "politically correct" and haven’t been feminized. As a gamer I’m glad, and hope that It’ll stay that way.

But will it stay that way forever? Do you feel that video games will become more feminized in the future? I really hope not.

Some games might be designed for women but boys don’t need to buy them. Boys and girls aren’t the same in general boys like action, cars, wars, and loud noise so they will make them games they like. If they want to get girls and women playing they need things females like. Wii is coming out with a weight loss game advertised to women. My niece who turned 9 today likes Wii basketball, she is really into sports like soccer and marshal arts but never played with soldiers like her brother.
Makers should target boys or girl or men or women when they make games not try to make them one game fits all. I have no interest at all in my boyfriend’s games they are noisy and fast moving like race cars.
No need to make boys and girls play the same games.

I want to purchase a good game where i can play others over the internet – im into action and sport games

the guitar heroes and rock-bands are fun

there are many others.

I’ve played those so just try them out
also here is a list that might help.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Wii_Wi-Fi_Connection_games

We like the bowling, baseball, tennis, sports games it came with. And I tried a word coach that’s fun but not as interactive. What are some challenging games that we can play with 2-4? Or even 1 player? (We are not into star wars or anything like that) Do they have like a Grand Theft Auto for Wii. Thanks!

you can get the mario and sonic olympic sports…

me and my wife rented Trauma Center : New Blood and that was pretty fun for awhile.. but the dialog is boring… the replay value is ok.. its hard to figure out how to get points and get good grades for completing each quest.
Smash Brothers is pretty good.

Also Wii Fit has just been annouced, to help some lazy people get in shape.

Mario Kart comes out at the end of the month

I guess it depends on what you want to play…

Smarty Pants is a good trivia game.
Adventure / Action – Mario Galaxy, No More Heroes, Super Smash Brothers Brawl, Bully

We are a family of Dad, Mum, girl of 7 and 2 boys of 4 and 2.
Dad likes sports games, Mum adventure puzzle quests, daughter like Mum and cute animal and dress-up games, 4 y-o son anything age-appropriate. Have PC which everyone uses, but Dad wants a console for the family room. Have no idea where to start. Please help with your recommendations – PS, XBox, Wii – what’s generally best? Can anyone recommend particular games too e.g. puzzle adventure games like Zelda? Thanks in advance.

Firstly i would say a nintendo Wii, you all seem to like a different sort of game, there all availible on the Wii and with the added fun of playing them Wii style even……..better. But it’s so hard to get hold of a Nintendo Wii now it might just be worth getting a different console.
best games for the Wii http://uk.gamespot.com/games.html?platform=1031&type=games
The next one i would reccomend would be the PS3 it is for more serious games at the minute, but soon after christmas there will be alot more games availible for it that would suit all the family, puzzle, adventure, sports and action. just have to wait. best PS3 games http://uk.gamespot.com/games.html?type=top_rated&platform=1028&page_type=games&tag=subnav;top_games

If you don’t want to wait for the games to be released your best choice would be the XboX360 it already has a vast Library of games to have all of you entertained for hours on end.
