Invizimals is really cool, but it's not polished enough to be the next generation of monster battling. If I was under 10 years old I'd love this game, and I think a lot of kids are going to be psyched for it, but the novelty of the augmented reality wears thin too quickly. I really want the developers to make a sequel, and focus on making the interactions more believable, and fleshing out the game (fewer cutscenes, more actual missions). Ideally I could see this franchise on the PS3 using the PS Eye, possibly using collectible cards, or even merchandise to earn new Invizimals. With a better camera, a bigger processor, and a system that's easier to use online, Invizimals could be something that beats the crap out of the sickeningly cute EyePet, and gives Pokemon some much needed competition.

Is Dive an amazing WiiWare title? Eh, not really. But it's certainly plenty good for 1000 Wii points. It's a slower paced, exploration game where every misstep kills you, yet somehow comes off as a casual, play-it-every-so-often kind of game. One thing is for sure: WiiWare doesn't have a title like this, so if you're looking for something different, check out Dive.
