			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Ghostbusters: The Video Game</strong><br />
Everybody&#8217;s favorite ghostbusting oriented &#8217;80s movie and sequel is becoming a modern video game for the PS2, PS3, XBOX 360, Nintendo DS, PC and Wii. The whole game will be a modern blast to the past. It&#8217;s set around Thanksgiving 1991. You can battle Vigo (II), The Stay Puft Marshmallow Man (I), and Slimer (I and II). You can play as Venkman, Ray, Egon, Winston, &#8220;Rookie&#8221;, and Slimer. Dan Aykroyd (Ray) said that this could be considered the third movie. I hope there&#8217;s a random free-for-all mode where you can play as the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man and just destroy everything.</p>
<p><strong>Untitled Beatles &#8220;Rock Band&#8221;-style Game*</strong><br />
Well, I&#8217;ve been hoping for this for some time, and now according to thebeatles.com, it&#8217;s official. (I&#8217;m hoping for full compatibility with the Guitar Hero World Tour band set.) The best songs for the game would be &#8220;Helter Skelter,&#8221; (possibly the craziest rock song of the sixties) &#8220;Savoy Truffle,&#8221; and of course, &#8220;The End.&#8221; The game will reportedly have 45 master recordings. I&#8217;m hoping for something like Guitar Hero: Aerosmith or Guitar Hero: Metallica&#8230; Guitar Hero: The Beatles. </p>
<p>* has not been officially announced as a <em>Wii</em> game.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>E3 was so jam packed with great games that it&#8217;s time for another edition of Upcoming Wii Games&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Wii Sports Resort</strong><br />
This is going to be everything we (or maybe just I) wanted from the original Wii Sports, and some stuff we didn&#8217;t really want. Jet Skiing looks like loads of fun, but too much work for me to consider as an actual game (I don&#8217;t like to work when I game). Frisbee throwing looks pretty lame, but&#8230; but I can&#8217;t think of a way to finish that sentence. Most of all I&#8217;m looking forward to fencing. I really wanted some kind of sword fighting in the original Wii Sports, and I&#8217;m very happy to see it in Wii Sports Resort.</p>
<p><strong>Animal Crossing: City Folk</strong><br />
I&#8217;ve never played an Animal Crossing game before, but this looks pretty good, and after reading about it and such, I&#8217;m kicking myself for not getting in on the Animal Crossing craze earlier. Also this will be the first Wii game to feature WiiSpeak, the Wii&#8217;s very own voice chat feature. I&#8217;m shocked that Nintendo would release this, because they&#8217;ve been so obsessed with being family friendly, although I&#8217;m sure that this will only be allowed between your &#8220;Wii Friends&#8221; (which is the most ridiculous video game feature ever created).</p>
<p><strong>Wii Music</strong><br />
This game was featured in the first <a href="http://jacob.efinke.com/2007/06/11/wii-friendly/">Upcoming Wii Games post</a>, and due to some strange delays it&#8217;s appearing again. Now we know more about it: you can conduct an orchestra, and play the drums using the Wii Balance Board as a pedals. Some songs are the Legend of Zelda Overworld Theme, and the Super Mario Bros. Theme.</p>
<p><strong>Wario Land: Shake It</strong><br />
Hmmmm&#8230; Pros: Appears to be a sidescroller; a return to the classic series, Wario Land. Cons: Looks a bit too cutesie; I&#8217;m afraid that I could beat it in about a week.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Time for another installment of Upcoming Wii Games. With E3 just around the corner lots of news on great games is popping up.</p>
<p><strong>Guitar Hero IV</strong><br />
Now with drums and vocals. Make your own guitar, make your own character, write your own songs. Can&#8217;t wait to make fifteen minute rock anthems. Also, according to a Newsweek article, there may be Beatles songs in this installment.</p>
<p><strong>Star Wars: The Force Unleashed</strong><br />
This is what I&#8217;ve been waiting for since the Wii came out. What can I say?&#8230; The Wiimote makes for the perfect lightsaber duel. I had some worries about which of the trilogies this game would chronicle, and I was relieved to find out that I can play as Darth Vader and that was enough for me.</p>
<p><strong>Mega Man 9</strong><br />
The first WiiWare game featured in an &#8221; Upcoming Wii Games&#8221; post. The first Mega Man game from the original series in over ten years. The first Mega Man game with a female boss. Plus the price can&#8217;t be much because I don&#8217;t think they&#8217;ve sold anything on the Wii Shop Channel for over $20.</p>
<p><strong>Kid Icarus Wii</strong>?<br />
Another series revived after a long absence. I didn&#8217;t like the looks of Pit&#8217;s concept art, but a bad Kid Icarus adventure?&#8230; Impossible.</p>
<p><strong>Super Smash Bros. Brawl II</strong>?<br />
Sakurai has mentioned adding a handful of new characters, a continuation of the Subspace Emissary, and other new features that didn&#8217;t make it into the original.</p>
