With the start of fall and then into Winter... some HUGE games are coming, riding on the hype train and sure to be million sellers. But there are other, overlooked, titles that don't really get much attention. I would like to show you Battalion Wars II and Zak and Wiki.

Battalion Wars II (BWii)
Release Date: October 29, 2007
Players: 1-2 (online)

Battaion Wars II (known as BWii) is the sequel to Battalion Wars, an action RTS game on Gamecube. BWii has been vastly improved with updated visuals, tons of new levels, an online mode, local multiplayer, and many more options including naval units in combat.

Why buy? The online play - it's going to be intense. One of the biggest problems of the first game was that there was no multiplayer which the game would have been great for. Now it's there, and it looks promising.

Three Online Multiplayer Modes
Assault: Instant Combat
Skirmish: Tactical depth
Co-op: Work with friendsVideos

Release Date: Fall 2007
Players: 1

Zack and Wiki is a new point and click adventure from Capcom. Although Zack and Wiki features a vibrant and stylish cell-shaded graphics style... don't let that fool you. Zack and Wiki is one for the hardcore crowd, much like The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker. Point and click adventures are hard to come by in today's time but they use to be quite popular. You use the wiimote to point and move yourself and click on items. Some things you will have to interact with using the wiimote in different ways, untold to you.

Why Buy? Zack and Wiki will draw you in because of the challenge. It is said to be a very difficult game in which, if you die, you have to start at the beginning of the level, or at rare "save tickets". The puzzles are said to challenging. IGN has even started their own "Buy Zak and Wiki Campaign (http://wii.ign.com/articles/797/797414p1.html)".

I started a "Buy BWii Campaign" at GameSpot forums actually. :)
I'm not sure how popular Z&W is now that IGN is giving it so much coverage, to the average consumer I still think it's pretty unknown.

But BWii sounds like it could be awesome if the online works out well and isn't laggy.

Get Zelda or Super Paper Mario for some very good games. But save your money for Super Mario Galaxy, Metroid Prime 3, Super Smash brothers Brawl, BWii, Zack and Wiki, Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles, Endless Ocean. That reminds me.. I need to add Endless Ocean to that list.
