I've played a lot of game consoles over my lifetime, and this is definitely one of the best ones I've played. The controllers for the Wii are comfortable, and the motion sensory works well the majority of the time. This console led to more interactive gaming, and had Sony and Microsoft playing catch-up. Wii tennis, is, of course, the best game on that console (IMO).
As always with Nintendo, the game selection isn't as wide as the PS/Xbox, but that's simply how Nintendo does business.

This game is such a stressful delight! I hate playing but I can't stop. It's a great time waster for quarantine and such a fantastic thing for PS to do in an attempt to keep people home, not that I was leaving anyway! The chapters get gradually harder (as many games do) but i get so annoyed (I'm a very bad loser!!) But I literally can't stop playing till I finish, as I type, I'm nearly finished Among Thieves and very excited to start Uncharted 3! If only I could get past this darn chapter!!

The first game I always purchase when I have a Playstation, is Tekken. I played the crap out of Tekken 2 on the PS when I was a kid. So, when I purchased a PS3, Tekken 6 was the first game I purchased and played. Tekken is an excellent fighting game with a large variety of characters. Nina is probably my favorite, and always has been.
 The only gripe I have is the skimpy clothing on the females, like legit a chick wouldn't fight in some bikini thing. But, that's a gripe I have with all female video game characters.

Good game but has clitches
I have been a fan of the game series since it started on the ps one, but this seems like a missed opportunity to have something new added to the game it's basically the same game as wwe2k19 but with a few more wrestlers and alot more clitches

The only additions are some packs that have to be purchased.

I would buy this if you are a fan of the series but if you are new is get 2K19 as it's a better game

I got this from PlayStation Plus and I like it more than the first game. It's a few things that make me like it more:

1: It has a story mode that you don't need a PS Plus account to play.
2: You can upgrade individual player types instead of having to upgrade as a player to unlock improvements.

It has several new levels and player types and I'll admit I love to play this game though it annoys me at times when you roll out of the way and they still manage to shoot and kill you when they seem to be around a corner in the distance.

Glitchy at times (0 more)
I'll admit i got this from PS Plus a few months ago and was excited to try this game that I'd been eyeing for a while. It ran fine for several chapters and I was getting intrigued by the story line. Who was our sire? Were we going to go the good route or the bad route? Would we be the one to cure the plague wrecking London?

Several times though, it glitched mid fight and I had to exit the game and hope it had autosaved not too long before it froze on me.

I haven't finished the game yet but look forward to doing so.

Cute story-line (0 more)
Puzzling at times (0 more)
I got this as part of an EA bundle from the PS Store at a bargain price.

It has a very cute story-line involving a ball of string that is retelling the tales of a family's holidays, helping to fill in photo albums and picture frames in the family's house. You have to make it from one end of the memory to the other, going through puzzling scenarios and avoiding things that may hurt you without running out of string.

Considering the game is for all ages, I did find some of the puzzles a little complicated at times.

Awsome
I'm an xbox player but the lack of original exclusive Xbox games is a bit disappointing. I heard about the app I could download onto pc that enables you to play ps games. All you need is a playstation account and a subscription. I've installed it and I'm impressed that it works. I have a Microsoft pc and an xbox controller and I'm playing PlayStation games with them. Slight problem with compatibility on some games. Obviously there's not a huge selection of games currently, but way more than Microsoft can offer. I look forward to more games being added.

Generally speaking, I'm not really a fan of Zombies (or the undead), in either movies or in games in which they are the main antagonist.

Which is probably why I gave this a miss when it was first released, only picking it up when it was released on PS Plus.

(Yes, I know the Freakers are never called Zombies but, let's face it, that's what they really are).

I have to say that, while slow starting, the story in this open world game was actually quite enjoyable, with Sam Witwer doing a particularly fine job as the protaganist Deacon St John, the former outlaw biker who you play as in this post apocalyptic world.

Freaker horde missions, though? Not a fan.

(I preferred sneaking around, or the occasional gunfight)
