This is an excerpt from the Preview of the Nintendo Wii game Need For Speed: ProStreet by 1up
To demo the effect, Little swings the camera around to the side of the RX-7 and lights up the tires. As he nails down the power, wisps of smoke start to swirl near the contact patch of the tire and slowly get sucked into the wheel well. As the volume of smoke increases, the rotation of the wheel sucks the smoke around, and you can see it vortex before it billows out and starts to obscure the rear of the car. Seen through the smoke, the car within appears out of focus and blurry, and eventually the tire is burning up so much that the whole screen is full of smoke. As Little lets off the gas, the smoke starts to clear and you see it quickly dissipate in a very realistic way. If there’s a feature we’re going to see copied by every racing game in 2008 and beyond, this is it. Though seemingly little more than a cute cosmetic addition, it adds tremendously to the vibe of ProStreet and actually evolves into an important gameplay mechanic. One-on-one drift races take on a whole new dynamic when your opponent hits a corner first and lights up his tires so much that you can’t see the road ahead.
The team is understandably enthusiastic about what it has achieved so far, but there is still much about ProStreet yet to be revealed. Specific information about car lists, additional track locations, and, most significantly, the online gameplay modes is being withheld until later in the year, with a steady flow of information planned between now and the game’s expected release date in November.

Guitar Hero III Wii details - online play, wireless guitar and more!
SUNNYVALE, Calif., May 23, 2007 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX News Network/ — After warming their amps in the basement garage to rocking sold out shows at Stonehenge, fans of Activision, Inc.’s (Nasdaq: ATVI) wildly popular Guitar Hero™ franchise will now be able to shred like never before with the next iteration of the game that will be available this fall. The new game will be released on the PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system and PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system, Xbox 360™ video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, and Wii™ video game system from Nintendo.
Turning it up to 11, Guitar Hero fans will channel their inner rock god using Gibson Guitar’s Les Paul and Kramer models as the industry standard. In addition, players will experience an incredible number of newly added features and explosive content including a new multiplayer action-inspired battle mode, grueling boss battles, a bevy of exclusive unlockable content and authentic rock venues. Expanded online multiplayer game modes will also allow axe-shredders worldwide to compete head-to-head for true legendary rock status.
While continuing to retain all the key features from their prior legendary performances, fresh downloadable content will be offered on multiple platforms, and players can now shred to a killer set list from many of the gnarliest rock songs ever recorded. Delivering more master tracks than ever before, strategic partnerships have been secured with all the major and independent music record labels and publishers to allow unrivaled access to their deep history of music catalogs, along with supplying artists’ original recordings for even greater authenticity.
The initial list of face-melting awesomeness includes:
* Paint It Black (by The Rolling Stones)
* Cherub Rock (by Smashing Pumpkins)
* Sabotage (by Beastie Boys)
* The Metal (by Tenacious D)
* My Name is Jonas (by Weezer)
* Knights of Cydonia (by Muse)
* Rock And Roll All Nite (as made famous by Kiss)
* School’s Out (as made famous by Alice Cooper)
* Slow Ride (as made famous by Fog Hat)
* Cult of Personality (by Living Colour)
* Barracuda (as made famous by Heart)
For the first time ever, Guitar Hero fans will also be able to thrash and burn with new wireless guitar controllers available for each platform. The exclusive Gibson guitars will include innovative features such as removable faceplates that will allow fans to later personalize their guitars and make it their own, and a new button color design that will be integrated for an even greater authentic feel and rock experience. Gibson Guitar’s Les Paul model will be the battle axe of choice, and an industry standard for all rock gods on the Xbox 360™, PLAYSTATION®3 system, and Wii™. After much anticipation, PlayStation®2 system fans will also be receiving a new exclusive shape as well, the classic Kramer guitar, also a Gibson brand, popularized by hard rockers and known for its body design, pickups, electronics, and construction for furious finger fretting.
“The development team at Neversoft has been exceptional, and we’ve been able to incorporate a host of fresh new online and multi-player game play modes, along with exciting content into this version of Guitar Hero that our fans have been asking for. Also, many of the top bands and songs we’ve tried to get in the past are now on board, and we’ve definitely got some giant aces in the hole to say the least,” said Dusty Welch, head of publishing at RedOctane. “In addition, offering a new line of Gibson wireless guitars for each platform is going to truly add to the authentic rock star experience like no other.”

This is an excerpt from the Preview of the Nintendo Wii game DK Bongo Blast by CVG
There are bits of Bongo Blast that are still a mystery, such as who left the tanker-load of bananas lying all over the track, and how they relate to the ‘banana bar’ on the right of the screen. But we do know that four-player split screen is definitely in, and it’ll be a raucous racing punch-up awash with powerups (see right). And Wi-Fi? Surely it’s a no-brainer. Mario Kart DS online was so good that we inadvertently made little squeaking sounds with our mouth, and in the continued mysterious absence of a Mario Kart on Wii, we’d love to see Bongo Blast bring high-speed, barrel-flinging screaming ape battles to those information superhighways.
All this speculation will be moot in a few short weeks: Bongo Blast is pencilled in for Japanese launch on 28 June, and - we suspect - the minimalist translation needed (for “COOL!” to become “OH, SUPER!”) means the UK surely won’t be far behind.
The big hairy monkey of a question is whether Bongo Blast will suffer for having to crowbar its original bongo-slapping idea on to the Wii controllers - and if we’ll be left pining for Mazza, a tarmac racetrack and a pile of red shells as weepily as we are now.
