Try finishing NMH2.

I'm on the last boss of Red Steel 2 and the spider boss woman on NMH2.

Can't be bothered to play anything.

I've beaten both of those games, that should be reason enough for you to get off your ass and finish them! LOL

Red Steel 2 was good but still not as high quality as I'd expect from a major Ubisoft game. Kind of dragged the last few hours IMO. No More Heroes 2 on the other hand was a great game from start to finish...really surprised how good it was. One of the better 3rd-party Wii games for sure.

Go back and read the Kirby's Epic Yarn post...

...more bad news!

Why not wait for impressions and reviews? Wario shake it never looked good in the first place aside from the animation IMO.

Agreed.

Agreed.

I get off my ass for no man!

I don't understand some users mixed reactions on NMH2. The media almost universally praised it, then I read from people on GAF or a couple of guys here that they don't like it as much as the first game - because they miss all the sloppy junk from the first game, like the overworld.

No idea what is going on there.

Just like anything....some people are always gonna be nuts & not like something for some crazy reason. LOL

My personal hype meter for Kirby's Epic Yarn dropped to ZERO yesterday after reading the following sentence in the August 2010 issue of Game Informer:

"With this simple control scheme in place, developers Good-Feel (Wario Land: Shake It) and HAL Laboratory (Super Smash Bros.), are free to incorporate motion gameplay in interesting ways such as steering the fist of the giant Kirby mech."

________________

The moment I saw Kirby, I was excited but cautious. I think it was to Vader I said: "It looks great, but so did Wario Land: Shake It, the first time I saw IT."

Now my worst fears have been realized!

It's almost guaranteed to be the most beautiful thing EVER to look at, but be totally devoid of any fun gameplay whatsoever.

Another passage from the same article:

"Unlike other oldschool platformers, the Kirby series has been less known for its blistering difficulty and more for its approachable fun. Epic Yarn is no different. Kirby and Prince Fluff collect loads of colorful gems throughout the game. Each time they take damage the shiny collectibles shake loose, lowering their end of level scores. This more forgiving penalty replaces death, so less-experienced gamers can keep on trucking after they take a wallop."

I will wait for reviews before saying I told you so. I will maintain that Kirby LOOKS awesome but I think it won't be that great of a game at all. I am telling you, it will be a simple 6 hour basic game that has difficulty for babies.
