So, a while ago I popped in Medal of Honor: Heroes 2 in my Wii.  The game plays extremely well, with the best FPS controls on the Wii or any standard game pad to date,, as well as the best online Multiplayer on Wii (as well as a good game to buy), but something was wrong with it.

How one man’s search for everything only got him nothing.

 

I had delved into the treasure trove; I had obtained its secrets. At that moment, I knew everything that it could ever provide me. It was clever, but It couldn’t hold on forever. I knew that one day it’s secrets would be disclosed to the public. This was my moment of triumph. Ladies and Gentlemen, at this point in time I, Smeags, know all there is to know about Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Read more »
