Tomb Raider for Wii (and other Wii games)

[mmitsch]

We have bought a Wii for my boys for Christmas. I am looking for a game to get them. They have been using James Bond Golden Eye a lot on their Nintendo 64 and, in searching Wii games, I noticed their is a Tomb Raider game.

Is the Tomb Raider game for Wii any good? Anybody have any other suggestions for Wii games like Tomb Raider or the old Nintendo James Bond game?

Let me know.

Judging by gamespot and ign reviews (the two publications that are the most reliable) it's not too bad. If they're set that type of game, get it.

As far as a Goldeneye replacement, there's not one on the Wii other than Metroid Prime 3 (but the multiplayer is not as good).

I highly suggest Super Mario Galaxy. It's a very creative and compelling game that's the highest rated for the Wii as well as the #2 game of ALL TIME. I've played through it and it's stunning how much fun it is. If they like Zelda, Twilight Princess is great. Guitar Hero 3 is a lot of fun and your kids might like it (it's one of the hits of the Xmas season).
