Nintendo Wii Screenshots: Hannah Montana the Movie

I posted about the DS version of the Hannah Montana the Movie video game back in June in this post. The Wii version is basically the same, but less fun. The main difference is in the performances you have to do the instruments in the order that is decided and you cannot freestyle an do the parts you want like in the DS version. Also, the controls do not always function correctly, such as some of the poses. The other annoying thing is the characters sound nothing like themselves except Miley/Hannah sometimes sounding like herself and the music sound like the right voice.

Nintendo Wii Screenshots: Rock Band Country Track Pack

I love country music, so the country track pack for Rock Band was a must have and its release was the biggest reason I bought the Rock Band 2 bundle for myself finally this summer. Up until there was the country track pack I was content with having to go over to my parent's and play on the version I helped buy for my bro's Xbox 360, but the country songs were what made me give in and finally get it for myself. That and the Beatles Rock Band, which I preordered and should be getting in the mail soon. Anyways, the play mode is the simplified version like Rock Band 1 for the Wii and not the fun customizable version like Rock Band 2 for all systems and 1 for some systems. However, the game is not too expensive for the 21 songs that comes with it and it is totally worth it to have the country music to play to. Not to mention many of the songs are actually popular/hit songs unlike the a lot more obscure stuff that Rock Band has and tends to lack the popular/hit songs at least in what comes with it.

The newest National poll is Which droid would you like to help with your chores? R2-D2 or C-3PO. Yet, another Star Wars poll. I guess C-3PO would be more helpful with chores being able to do more, although R2-D2 does seem smarter.

Nintendo Wii Screenshots: Rock Band 2 New Battle of the Bands Challenges September 9, 2009

The newest Battle of the Bands Challenges are called The Beatles: Rock Band Release Party and The Battle of Death. The Beatles: Rock Band Release Party is a guitar and bassist battle. Since I do not have two guitars or even another person to play with I am not sure if this battle requires downloads, but I feel like it probably does. The songs are "Yomp" and "Crazy Tuesday." The challenge is ranked by score.

The other new battle called The Battle of Death is a general band battle. The songs are "Pretend We're Dead," "Spirit in the Sky," and "Souls of Black." The challenge is ranked by longest streak. It requires you to play as Expert and no Saviors allowed. Since I am not really any good at expert on any instrument I did not try the battle, but it was nice to notice that I could if I wanted because it is all songs included in the game.

You do not need to purchase any songs for this challenge. I stunk so bad at these songs that my longest streak of 96 was not even good enough for my score to post in the challenge.

Sorry, but it is totally annoying for their to continue to be new Star Wars polls and just when I thought we were finally done with them.
