    Initially a rumored release for the Wii after being canned for the Xbox, Kore has been confirmed for Wii. Here's the link.

    Damn, this game looks like the true sequel to Banjo Kazooie everyone wanted, as it definitely looks to have BK influences on it. From the movies, I can tell that the dialogue, voice acting and music are all top-notch. The graphics are also clean. This is a big-un.

    I've never heard of this before, but this does sound interesting... I think more humor games are needed, so that's a plus. :)

    Another new game announced! That's like the 4th or 5th one this week.

    It sounds interesting. It sounds like 3rd parties are actually trying now =).

    Yeah. The prophecized shift towards the Wii as it happened with the DS seems to be beginning.

    This game is actually a port of the Xbox game they abandoned in 2003. It still has better graphics than 97% of  Wii games.

    Sure, it's a port, but that doesn't mean they haven't done a little touch-up for the system. It looks great. The Wii needs more genuinely funny games, like Mad World and No More Heroes and this.

    The system hasn't really been utilized for platformers yet. The control scheme for Galaxy was pretty half-assed, in all truth. They can work, but camera control should be assigned to the IR pointer rather than the D-pad. Maybe some fresh eyes to the genre can see that, and Kore will have it.

    I am a huge fan of platformers so any game from that genre makes me happy. KORE looks very promissing. With Galaxy, De Blob, Mushroom Men, KORE and Spyborgs the Wii seems to be the best suited system for platformers this gen.
