Launching Colors
Michael Kerner

Out of all the kinds of video games on the market, the most addictive kinds is puzzle games. Nintendo haas really shined brightly in that category well with the Wii. With great games like Big Brain Academy: Wii Degree, and classics you could download for the system like system like Tetris and Yoshi's Cookie, they never seem to come out of style. But, that hasn't been said well with new releases for the system. After some dissapointing titles like Marble Mania and Bust A Move Bash, the classics just don't feel as good as they did then. Now, a classic game from the P.C. finally turns its way onto the Wii, but does it make up from other games that have failed?Luxor: Pharaoh's Challenge for the Nintendo Wii, brings the classic puzzle game series from Mumbo Jumbo, into the use of the Wii remote. The gameplay though is very simple as you try to connect three of the same colored balls in your lines, and try to prevent them from going into the black hole. The game features over 80 levels of addictive action. The graphics look nice, bringing in the feeling of Ancient Egypt onto the palm of your hand, but the control of the game is the big flaw. You have to maintain a steady hand if you're going to shoot your balls into the right marbles constantly. Otherwise, it would be difficult to master the game. The gameplay isn't very hard to master if you've played other ones like Zuma before, but there is also a lack of variety in the game. You have similar modes from other puzzle games like time trial modes, challenge modes, but it doesn't do enough to pass the Ancient times away.All in all, if you've played Zuma on the home computer, then Luxor: Pharaoh's Challenge isn't a must buy for the Wii. If you have the Nintendo DS though, I recommend that edition instead, because it is a little more fun to play on the go, and easier to control than the struggles at home.Graphics: BSound: B-Control: CFun & Enjoyment: COverall: C 1/2+ Read more ›

Too easy for those who have played Luxor on the PC
Quoad Toad

This version of Luxor is essentially the same as the computer version. Having played and loved the computer version, I decided to buy Luxor for the Wii. I had read that it was the same as the PC, but I purchased it anyway.I had fun while playing this game, but the fun was short lived. I finished this game after just a week. I remember the PC version being very challenging and it taking me several weeks to finish. I must not have lost my Luxor skills because the Wii version seemed very easy.I highly recommend this game for anyone who has not played the PC version. It is challenging for new players. This game requires fast reflexes and concentration. Therefore, it's a great game to play when you want to get relax and forget the worries of the day.The developers did a good job with porting this game to the Wii. I did not encounter any bugs and the controls worked flawlessly.

IF YOU LIKE ZUMA!
S. newsom

if you like zuma and you are addicted to it like i am you will love luxor. great price! i'll have to tell you amazon has the best prices. what keeps me coming back is the price and also the free shipping!

Just Plain Fun
Adrienne Miller

Luxor for the Wii is fun. End of review.Well....okay, maybe a few more thoughts. I did own Luxor 1 & 2 for my Mac before I got this for the Wii, in fact, owning it for my computer is most likely the reason I bought it for my Wii. Computer games are cool enough but I just can't get into playing games with my keyboard or mouse so the Wii version was much better as far as controlling game play goes. The game itself is much the same, shoot balls at other balls to make three in a row or more of them disappear. Good stuff.The only small fault I could find was that the graphics seemed a little small on the screen although, due to the wireless nature of the Wii controls, I was playing it from across the room on my couch instead of 12 inches away like on the Mac version.All in all, Luxor is lots of fun and through the "find new and used from $$" button on amazon, is easily purchased and shipped for less than $20.

Fun for the whole family
Rebecca A. Waddell

"Totally addictive" - true. I haven't finished this game 2 times like I have on DS, but it is still a lot of fun. My whole house hold loves to get on and try to beat each others high scores. I'm glad that Luxor has finally branched out off the PC and came to a console that I can play without sitting at my computer.

Really enjoyed playing
R. Pusch

I never played this on the PC so I can't compare it but my husband and I both really enjoyed this game.

luxor game is great.
John J. Marchese

I bought the game for my wife and she is getting alot of joy playing same.As for the vendor from whom I purchased it, I would buy again from them as all went well. I am completed satisfied. thank you

GREAT GAME!!!
Tonya F. Ryals

If you love puzzle and strategy games like Bejewled - Tetris - then this game is a must have for the Wii. Even my young nephews play this game it is colorfull and well done as well as challenging.

Great beginner stick and easy to mod
Matt V.

The WWE Brawl Stick is essentially the same as the Street Fighter IV Fight Stick (Standard Edition) that Mad Catz released a while ago. However, the buttons and joystick feel slightly improved; the joystick feels smoother and more responsive while the buttons are less stiff. I've never tried the Mad Catz TvC Wii stick, but I've heard it's very similar in feel. For arcade stick beginners, this stick is a solid option without having to drop over $100. If you are serious about fighting games and want to step up your game, I recommend switching to arcade stick; games like Street Fighter are meant to be played with one.The case fits easily in your lap without feeling to baulky or heavy. Rubber feet on the bottom keep the stick steady if you want to play on a table. The USB cord is plently long. In my opinion, this stick is a great size and has all the features you could want in an arcade stick (see product description for a complete list of features).The best thing about this stick is it's very easy to mod. The buttons have quick disconnects, which means no soddering is required. Higher quality buttons, such as Sanwa or Seimitsu ones (about $2-$3 each), will snap in easily. The stock joystick and mount is the same size as a Sanwa JLF, one of the best joysticks on the market (about $25), so swapping the joystick is similarly easy. The hardest part about modding this stick is switching the artwork (unless you want The Rock staring at you while you play). To give you a rough idea, upgrading this stick will cost you an additional $50 for premium parts. There are plently of step by step guides online for modding. Here's a link for one very helpful guide:[...]Overall, this stick is a good buy and can be easily upgraded with a little extra cash.

nice but 1 issue
Richard R. Harewood

this is a decent fightstick. it's not top quality but it feels good. for a beginner or i should say a returner to stick, it hasn't disappointed very much. there are some areas that can be improved to make the stick a bit better but it is easily modded (this is my intentions).ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENTthe joystick had an issue from the beginning. it didn't engage properly for jumping forward and backward. i was hitting the corners correctly but the character was only walking. it seemed that the actuator was not connecting with both switches in the corners, so i had to input slightly more to the up side to get a forward or backward jump. however, i corrected that by modding the actuator on the joystick with some electrical tape. this caused the switches to engage slightly sooner and allowed both to be activated in the corners.the stick is a square gate and will take getting use to since i was accustom to circular gates. but the gate can be changed with an octogonal gate(or circular gate if found). so i ordered an octogonal gate to provide more familiarity for myself. I will see how the joystick operates with an octogonal gate before replacing it (if necessary). since good players use square gates it should be an issue for some people.WHAT'S NICEthe BUTTONS are very responsive. i don't think that they will need changing until they start to fail.the TURBO function works great. so far i was able to complete some of the trials on SSF4 that has eluded me when is was playing the pad.the FIGHTSTICK has good weight and don't move easily while playing. it has a sturdy build and look like it can take some rough treatment.it's easily MODDED. this is great for this stick. a SANWA JLF and 30mm buttons can easily swap out the originals. no soldering required! there is also a template on the net for replacing the artwork with your own custom design (unless you like the rock and who ever the other man is. i'm not a wrestling fan).CONCLUSION OF OPINIONit is a nice stick that you can work with. if your looking near perfection, look elsewhere! i suggest that modding is the way to go if the stick don't feel or perform to your expectations. a SANWA JLF joystick will cost around US$25 and an octogonal gate around US$5 online. this should be all that is needed. since this SE (standard edition)fightstick is for US$70 and modding is about US$30, US$100(before shipping) should provide you with a great feeling fightstick. this is less than what u would pay for a top of the line stick like a TE (tournament edition) fightstick.this stick is definitely worth the 70 bucks. i suggest buy and mod.UPDATE (2012/06/07)i had this brawlstick since october and modded the joystick with a SANWA JLF an an octogonal gate. the fightstick has taken some rough treatment and is still going. i replace the L1 and X buttons with the L2 and R2 buttons due to improper functioning. these buttons i seemed to use more often so it is only natural(wear and tear) that they malfunction first. i also drilled 4 holes in the base plate of the fightstick and installed 4 thin but long bolts to secure it to an old table i have with wing nuts. as i stated earlier, the stick got some rough treatment when i was trying to execute complicated moves. therefore, i took apart the SANWA JLF stick in it and tightened the loosed screws that secured the joystick into its plate. definitely the result of rough treatment. it is windows 7 compatible(driver installed automatically) and i use it to with M.A.M.E and other emulators i have on the pc. hence, old classics like street fighter 2, killer instinct 2 and marvel superheroes(just to name a few) are available with the arcade feel i was used to.FINAL CONCLUSIONwith the mods done to the stick, it feels good. much better than before i modded. i am totally loving this stick. i am very pleased with my purchase. i suggest BUY AND MOD.

Good / Bad / Ugly
G-Bus Saves

The WWE All Stars Brawl Stick is a great stick for beginners and also a great platform for modifications. I hate the artwork that came on the stick but, that was easily fixed by creating a lami label at the local copy store. The buttons also suck. They're supposed to be the same as Sanwa but, feel lighter and kind of crappy. My lazy hands like to rest my fingers onto the buttons and Sanwa's are just too sensitive for that so I switched to Seimitsu screw down with minimal effort. The joystick also needed help and was sticking due to the poor plastic quality. The metal washer was riding up outside of the indent made to capture it. I fixed this issue by gluing the metal washer in place. Parts from the joystick are compatible with the Sanwa JLF and I tried the octagonal gate but, decided the square is where to be. So far all is well.

Still a very fun game!
Ryan Sil. (Creator of Dynamite Alex for Android/PC)

The original Sonic series has always been considered to be Sega's best. During the 2000s, the series had nothing but a big line of clunkers and game collections, with a few exceptions (Sonic Unleashed, Colors, Adventure series, and the handheld games, to name a few). Then, instead of re-releasing the old Sonics again, Sega finally decided to make Sonic 4, a game that was meant to take the series back to its roots? Did it succeed? I'd say so.Sonic 4 may happen to rehash of Sonic 1 & 2 elements, but the level design, leaderboards, music, homing attack and graphics are all-new (At least, to the original series). The basic gameplay holds up pretty well, and there are some really cool gimmicks added into this installment, such as running across a path of cards, riding in a mine cart, having to beat the special stages under time limits (and no jumping during the Special Stages), etc.Of course, there have to be some flaws. First off, since this was built from ground-up, the physics are off and somewhat floaty. Another thing is that it was really easy compared to the previous Sonics. You won't have a hard time being able to collect 100 (or even 200) rings. Lastly, although this is minor, it could have been more fitting for Sega to use the classic design of Sonic for the game.Those flaws aren't to say that the game is bad. The game itself is just as fun as its predecessors. In fact, while it does contain 4 zones compared to the other Sonics' 6+, certain levels themselves are pretty long. I timed it, and the game is actually just as lengthy as the old Sonics, if not longer. It could be a bit steep for a purchase, but it is totally worth it.Overall, people can say it's a rehash, but in my perspective shown above, in which I think about what's beyond that, it's a new fun Sonic game. Just be sure to have the Steam service installed on your computer. Does it have a lot of flaws? Yeah, but they are pretty tolerable.

Awesome Game! Worth the money!
A. Goyette

I remember my brother and I playing the old Sonic the Hedgehog 2 and Sonic and Knuckles on the old Sega Genesis. Then, when my brother out grew it, me and my best friend would spend hours in front of the television playing it. I grew up and I didn't hear or see much about Sonic for a long time. Then I managed to find Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Sonic the Hedgehog 3 and Sonic and Knuckles for download here on Amazon. I was so psyched! Then, one day my cousin asked me, "Have you seen Sonic 4?" I was so excited that Sega had finally made a new Sonic game. My cousin allowed me to play it on his tablet, and I was hooked from the start! So I downloaded it for my computer.At first, I couldn't get Steam to work, but another cousin of mine, who knows computers even better than me, got it working and it's played great ever since! I like how Sonic has the new look, sort of like how he looked on the cartoon Sonic X. You also fight Dr. Eggman, who I always called Robotnik (they're actually the same person). I love how they incorporated many of the classic things like the spiral tracks in mid-air and the loops, but mixed it with a 3-D look and a few new things as well. One of my favorite features is you can go back and play the same levels over and over again and amass like 30 extra lives before playing the more challenging levels! It'll definitely be a game I play over and over again. I can't wait for Episode II!

Could've been a little bit better
Drasadex

When I bought the game, I was thinking that this would be a pretty cool title. Well, to me, it's average. The hub world is okay, but the idea of choosing any world in any order you want to play doesn't feel right to me. I wish getting the Chaos Emeralds were slightly easier. Now the stages themselves aren't really that hard, it's the fact that if you fail the level (hitting the red "!" circles or running out of time), you can't just instantly go replay. But that doesn't bother me too much. The physics are alright however. Anyhow, if you love Sonic and want a good time killer, then go ahead and pick this up. (Especially if you want Episode Metal in Sonic 4: Episode 2)

It's good, but not great
Justin

Pros:-Return to form-Interesting environments-Levels flow nicelyCons:-Terrible console models (hopefully you can find some decent mods)-Physics are a little strange-Levels are a little to familiar-Hubworld takes away from the flowOverall:Sonic 4 Episode 1 is a good game, but it does little in the way of innovation. The use of Wii models on a PC port comes off as lazy, and the controls still need some tweaking. The game is fun enough to warrant it's price tag, but at the same time, it feels a little too familiar. Strangely, Sonic Generations seems to come off a lot fresher, despite being a nostalgia based game. I have high hopes for sonic 4 episode 2, as it seems to be distancing itself from both nostalgia, graphics, and controls of this game (Look up the trailer, seriously). I'd buy generations instead, but if you don't have the money or hardware for it, this game is fairly good in its own right.

It's like a modern classic Sonic. Sort of.
bill

This game gets a lot of hate for what it did wrong, and while there are a lot of issues with it, it's not a bad game. It just isn't worthy of being called Sonic 4. The graphics look quite nice; they're cell shaded and the environments look really good. There's a new homing attack feature. And it runs on a fairly strong computer with no issues.Only issues is the physics, which suck. A lot. But overall, it's a pretty solid game. Lets just hope that Episode 2 is better.

Customer Reviews

Excellent, Device!
Swamiji CH

This little gem works exactly as described. I started out, by using the ArcSoft software that comes with it, and was pretty disappointed with its limitations. I stumbled upon a feature-rich substitute, quite by accident --'Debut Video Capture Software' by NCH-- which allows one to fine-tune all the aspects of a recorded video, to suit. NCH has a whole suite of install-on-demand offerings, and offers both free & registered versions, apparently. I discovered that, by reducing the size of the video, there is virtually no stuttering of the output on the computer screen. In any case, the rendered file, turned out to be excellent. Frame rate, also, had to be tweaked (to prevent frame-dropping), since this computer isn't the 'latest & greatest.' LOLI am not disappointed, with this device, since I dumped ArcSoft. I don't believe you will be, either.

As a Gamer
Carlos A. Lane

I bought this with the intent of using my laptop as a monitor for my X-Box 360, and while you can view live game-play, it does so with sub-standard video quality and also a noticeable lag from when you send a command to when you see it on the screen. But aside from that, it's a great software allowing you to do everything you need for editing videos and posting them on YouTube... just don't expect this to make your computer a monitor for games that require fast input and on-the-dime game-play.

Four Wasted Hours
LCadaver

This product is complete crap. As an semi-pro videographer for 11 years and an IT support provider for 8, I thought this user-friendly device would be a snap, and I was only concerned with poor picture quality. Unfortunately I drastically overestimated the quality of this chunk of worthlessness.The drivers are a joke if you're using Windows 7, particularly for the audio. It took quite a bit of bouncing around the interwebs, but I finally found a driver that would actually make the audio come through the device. However, it stuttered constantly and was completely worthless. After finding no help with the stuttering audio, I decided to bypass the capture device's audio completely and capture the sound through my computer's sound card. That worked beautifully, except that the included Arcsoft crapware claims that I was trying to copy protected content. Apparently it interprets any damaged frames as Macrovision protection instead of just old tapes and shuts off the capture every few seconds. I considered contacting Arcsoft directly about this, but their support page doesn't even try to hide the fact that it will take FIVE TO SIX DAYS just to reply to you.The device seems intentionally designed not to work with any other capture software, so at this point it is a worthless piece of plastic.FORTUNATELY, Amazon is a first-class example of how you take care of your customers and they've prepaid return shipping and will be refunding the cost of the item with no hassles whatsoever. Thank you Amazon!

I've got some issues.
Brian Murray

Let me begin by saying that the recording aspect of this works just fine, however, you have to buy two extra vga cables so be prepared to do that. Also I don't know if this is just a problem with my model but the audio input is choppy and terrible. I use this to record from my PS3 and sega genesis and I have the same problem with both systems.

It does not work like it says it does
Cynthia Silva

After connecting it and reviewing the program and connections several times. the audio is very very very super poor quality. I had other friends who do tech for a living come in and help me, and it just doesnt do a nice recording. I dont like it.

it works
MetalBoxFan

it works better for capturing gameplay then for streaming. I tried to stream minecraft xbox 360 edition and it was very laggy.

So-so
MzSmith

Bought this product for my son. He wanted a more expensive HD PVR. The product did not meet my or my sons expectations. Instructions were vague, had to figure out how to work the product once only installation was complete. Some users will have to purchase more equipment.

Low quality, grainy video
K. Cody

The video you'll capture with this devise is of pretty low quality. I wasn't expecting much for the price but I was pretty surprised when I finally saw how bad it was. It reminded me of the old VHS days, when you would make a copy of a copy of a copy etc. If you want really fuzzy videos, then go ahead and buy this device because you'll love it!
