i agree, the plastic thing you stick on are a total rip off, the deal with motion plus is that it is meant to track every precise movement, (my a***) ps3 wand will be better.. but thats anoter story. It is being used for most new games that come out but it is basically an extra 2 motion sensors added onto the 12 in the controller already. waste of time really…. but needed in new games. 

and @barkiemailman 
i like your signiture but i would put wii 4th
ps3> psp>ps2> wii> N64>…> 132nd = 360  

LOL, Hey Ideal, I don't mean to correct you but I gotta do it

Nowhere in that signature does it say xbox gets THIRD. Turds=poop. It's not even in the runnings of console coolness.

she would probably like the steering wheel cuz their for fun games but i think that u should buy the nun-chuck thats cool for boxing on the wii and bowling only 1's i've played lol

Just so you know, the steering wheel has no purpose. Its just a controller case to make it feel like you're holding the wheel. Also, the system does come with 1 nunchuck so you wouldn't need to buy one of those.

How much are you able to spend on her?

Theres a new Wii sports resort bundle thats only $10 extra and includes 2 motion plus sensors. Wii sports resort is much better than the original sports disc that comes with the system. Of course you would want an extra controller as well so you could play 2 player.

There are a few items to avoid like the steering wheel, gun and any controller add ons (like the golf club and stuff like that). Don't get her Wii fit! Thats only for people who are too lazy for a real workout. Dance Dance Revolution would be a much better fit for her.

So yeah, great items for the wii are: Wii sports resort, New Super Mario Bros, Nintendo Points cards, DDR Hottest Party 3 and extra Wiimotes and Nunchucks. You shouldn't have to get her a classic controller unless shes buying N64 and SNES games off the wii online shop. Also good is a Gamecube memory card and GC controller because the Wii has 100% backwards compatibility (even including the same controller and memory card ports, which I thought was really cool).

You can't change the date that you earn trophies on, the clock only runs off the internet time. Before I signed up to PSN and earned trophies no time appeared underneath them but once you've signed up to PSN and synced them once then it can't be changed.

Sorry man, you can change the clock from “Set by Internet” or “Manual”. I got my copy of RE5 early and played offline and did that change to make sure there was no proof I got it early. Its possible.

@d4h8a15r16m23a42

That is an awesome idea man. I'd just like to point out a few things before any of this becomes official.

1) Keeping this contest “Fair” is almost impossible. Even right now there are a lot of people who are just a few trophies away from a plat.

2) Remember, even if you take all participants names and check their trophy lists before the contests starts, It's still easy to cheat…people can have a platinum, but NOT have their trophy list synced online yet. So after 6 days of the competition they can then sync the trophy lists to show 5 earned platinums (3 of which were earned before the comp started). ALSO, you can manually change the PS3s clock, so the time showing for those trophies earned will be inside the comps time period

3) Some people don't have Burnouts plat yet, as well as Hasbro family game night and WWE. Those who do not yet have them have a serious advantage as you can get those plats in a day or two.

The way I figure it, there is only 1 way to hold this competition and make it fair. Videogame launch dates. The contest should start with GoW3 and the 1st person to get that Plat earns 1 point, Dark void comes out on the 19th…1st person to get that plat earns 1 point. (and so on…). 1st person to get 3 points earns the $50 PSN card,

Hell, I'll help you too man. I work at a videogame store (I get games early sometimes, So I'm void from the competition). I can award PS3 games as I get get some pretty cheap ones usually. Although I'd have to check with Canada post to see what shipping rates to the UK are.

I'd a called 'em chazwozzers I would 'ave.

Oh well, dosen't matter if the name was amazing or not. It's gonna be games that sell that thing for me.
