This will only be funny to people that have played games online. Let’s just say it’s populated mostly by idiots.
Oh, and 256-player online? We don’t doubt it will work … we just doubt our brains’ ability to process 255 racial slurs and/or homophobic remarks simulatenously.

Haven’t played much lately, but I really like Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Mario Kart Wii. Apparently, the latest Tiger Woods golf game is really good.
They just announced the Motion Plus attachment, which will finally translate into real-time 1:1 motion. Looks like real sword-fighting, lightsabering, etc. will be a possibility. Here’s some video.
