1UP: Let's Tap Preview

When Sonic the Hedgehog creator Yuji Naka left Sega to start independent developer Prope, many wondered what kind of game the new company would make. In the past few weeks, a teaser website went online for the company's first game, Let's Tap, described as "the first game even penguins can play."

It turns out that the game involves setting the Wii Remote face down on a small cardboard box, and you play by tapping the box -- this shakes the remote subtly and registers movement in the game. So yeah, the penguin thing kind of makes sense, and it seems like the cardboard box will come packed-in with the game. Let's Tap is scheduled to ship in Japan in December, and it seems to be a multiplayer-focused party game.

I agree. Those two games were ZzZzZzZzZzZzZz.

La Noire was just a big tech demo for their new facial animations.

L.A Noire was a big disappointment to me. Quite repetitive, boasted one hell of a huuge nicely rendered map that was practically full of nothing to do.

Restrictive gameplay scenarios in how you approach / solve cases. The facial animations is what was amazing, but the rest was a letdown especially with the amount of little things you can do in the game.

Depends on personal preference/choice. I loved Heavy Rain. It was something new and fresh, and I'm glad I played it.

Same goes with LA Noire.

The Wiire: Let's Tap Review

The Wiire writes: "Could A Wii game that you play without touching the Wiimote possibly be fun?

Nintendo claims they are "innovators." With the Wii, the DS and the Dsi, many believe that Nintendo has lived up to their claims. Even with these innovations on the hardware side, there is little argument that there is a lack of innovation in third-party developed software. With a few exceptions in games like Boom Blox, not many games find interesting mechanics besides the basic waggle."
