so all these great scores and mine are the only ones you wanna see proof of? lol i have took the pics already, but my usb ports on this crappy pc are dodgey as hell, on monday ill be getting my final new part of my new pc, so its probably easyer to do it when thats done on monday :)


the most impressive record on their is the one for the power throws i think :shock:
lol I didn't mean anything by it, its just the golf records are the ones that impress me the most, probably cos that and boxing are my worst sports - although thats probably cos I spend all my time bowling/tennis. :lol:

Hmm I guess it be best for all records to be vindicated via pictures? To prevent squabbling. :P

But for some of the records it's just a fluke and when you try it again it never works out. It was the first time I went on the baseball hits game when I hit 27. I thought it was soooo easy. Next 10 times I didn't get past 18!

Similarly with the golf. My 5 under was the first time I played 9 holes (although I had played the first 6 a number of times). I haven't really gone back to it... :?

Have equalled the 9 for putting and got down to 27.2m for the chipping (8m on last shot!)
HOWEVER - wife scored 275 on bowling which has gutted me!

I am too weak. I couldn't stand all this talk about PBs etc etc - and I was told by Currys that they don't expect stock in for 3-4 months :shock: which I think is balls, but you never know. John Lewis had 2 in today with DVD cleaning kit, screen cleaning kit and a load of other rubbish you would never, ever buy when buying a console - but before I could make my mind up, they were gone. :shock:

However, Game had a couple of different bundles in, one of which came with Super Paper Mario, Mario Strikers Charged (can play others online :)) and WarioWare: Smooth Moves - all of which get rave reviews on the various websites. So I ordered it, together with an extra Wii Remote and Nunchuk controller so I can beat my wife at tennis... sorted - but I really hope that whoever is responsible for selling only these bundles gets what is coming to them! :x

See you on the leaderboards any day soon! :wink:

Edit: out of interest, did any Wii owners out there actually manage to buy just the base console without being bundled? I notice the list price is £179.99, but the current asking price of unbundled consoles, which are not actually available, is around £234.00

I bought one with the mandatory choice of some aberration called 'Super Monkey Ball' but it was only I think £200.

Looking on the positive, I would need games anyway, but I wouldn't have bought this bundle had the reviews on the game been poor - these 3 seem to be well liked - but most others I have seen are games or accessories I would just never use... anyway, done now. Let the games begin!

Looking forward to getting hold of the PDC darts game, and Mario Galaxy too.

Just before Xmas, the local WH Smith had a supply of about 30 or so in unbundled for an ex-VAT (I'm in Jersey) price of £152.99. Was tempted to buy 3 but resisted the temptation and therefore avoided a lynching from those behind me in the queue.

Not necessarily what I wanted to hear! :lol: It is all coming out of my Christmas bonus from work anyway - just another £400 to spend! 8-)

I would imagine we are not too far away from a Wii2 coming out - but I could hang on forever and a day I suppose. :?

I'm brilliant at the tennis and all the other games, but this bowling is seriously hard. Maybe I'm not doing something right? Are you meant to hold the Wii controller at an angle as you throw the ball? (probably not given the scores I'm getting :? )

You're not playing it like lawn bowls, are you YoD? :wink: Having watched some video clips of it, you need to time when you let go of the button - is that critical? Same as in real life - if you let go late and the ball goes upwards first... perhaps?

I'm actually quite brilliant at letting the ball go, it's the gutter that I can't avoid. It always spins away wildly into the gutter. :(
