    For how smart the Mensas are, you'd think that they would have figured out just how bogus IQ really is. It really has nothing to do with you "overall" intelligence, just your puzzle-solving abilities and experience. To be fair, that would make them good at helping with a puzzle solving game, but it won't necessarily make you any smarter at anything other than puzzles.

    @Bakkster_Man: Exactly. IQ isn't a good measure of anything except the ability to solve IQ tests, and definitely doesn't equate to "intelligence". I speak as someone who is quite good at IQ tests (I apparently have an IQ of 145), and yet I can be quite frighteningly stupid at times.

    When I was seven, I had to take an IQ test to get into a private school. I was in the 99th percentile, with an IQ of roughly 145. This made me eligible to apply to Mensa.


    In the intervening years, I used the internet for the first time, got my first gaming console, and started playing Magic: The Gathering.


    When I took an IQ test as part of a psychological evaluation for a security clearance, I had dropped to 126.


    You be the judge.

    @tzaketh: I am scared. You are like a future copy of me. When I was 9 I took their test and scored 144, then started playing Magic and computer games.
    So did you end up being a relatively valuable member of the society?

    In Mensa: The Game, you have to take a long written exam at the title screen after you press start, and if you fail you aren't allowed to play the game and are mailed a rejection letter you can shamefully display on your wall for the rest of your adult life.

    dual wield is awesome idea! the rest looks clever and cute but more of a renter on a boring weekend than anything.


    Also do we need another useless wii gun cozy? Isn't that what the idiotic thing that came with link's crossbow training was supposed to do? Why not just use that and slow its death a little bit instead of burdening us with another stupid ass piece of plastic?

    "Martian Panic is a Wii shooter for up to four players."


    I finally got Boom Blox thanks to a Black Friday deal and was pretty disappointed that a big chunk of it is a shooter. "Not another," I said to no one in particular. And now this Martian game is announced. I wish the "revolutionary" Wii-mote would have ended up being something more than a makeshift light-gun. How many light-gun like games have already made their way to the Wii? Five come to mind immediately. There's some irony in the fact that the one light-gun game people really want to see on the Wii -- a current-gen Duck Hunt -- has yet to be released.

    @Sloopydrew: Other than the laughing dog and nostalgia, why do you want Duck Hunt Wii? It seems kinda lame to me.

    Meh...nothing new or exciting. Frankly, a actual next-gen remake of Duck Hunt would be much more awesome. Yes, bring back the laughing dog.

    So, you don't want it to come out until the next set of systems are out?
