The problem Nintendo right now is that they just gone on the world stage and said "You know all that stuff you do for free on the Wii? Well in the future you MIGHT have to pay for parts of it on some games." and then pissed off leaving everyone bemused and annoyed. They'll soon realize that this announcement was received badly and be forced to clarify the details so we know exactly what we'll have to pay for.
Finally completed Assassins Creed last night, did everything except get all the flags and templars. I actualy enjoyed it even if it was repetitive and I'll definately get the sequel.
Let me know if Children of Men works on your HD DVD player, I've tried 3 copies on my xbox addon and none of them got past the Universal Logo at the start, it's a common problem apparently.
Just popped home to play it at lunch and I love it! Not got to any of the interesting puzzles yet as I only had half an hour but I love the presentation and the gameplay so far. It feels a little like a rare game from the N64 era, and that's a good thing for me.
