Some others:
Animal Crossing (date?)
Guitar Hero 3
Forever Blue
Tony Hawk's Proving Ground

Some on that list probably don't belong there, because I think the online is just leaderboards -- not actual online multiplayer (i.e Ghost Squad and Geometry Wars) -- though who knows... they may announce online multiplayer.

Is Resident Evil 4 for the Wii worth getting for ~$24?

I have never played it before on the GC.

For $24, I'd say absolutely. I have the GC version, so I doubt I'd buy the Wii one -- but I may rent it just for the new controls.

I'm wary. I'm not really into games like this, but I'm intrigued.

Yep. It's a very good game. Played through the GC version the past few months. Took me around 22 hours, so it's a pretty lengthy game and mostly great, though with a few annoying spots.

I'm not interested in this one at all. Played the first one briefly and just couldn't stomach it. Too violent for my tastes.

I liked the original Manhunt, but yes it is extremely violent. For instance, one weapon you can use is a garrote wire. The player character does not just use it to strangle victims however. He kind of "saws" it back and forth over the victim's neck until it cuts clean through and the head falls off. As if that is not enough, the whole time the victim is making this sickening gurgling noise that is really disturbing.

I am really kind of surprised that Manhunt 2 is coming to the Wii. Yeah I know Nintendo is trying to get more M rated games, but Manhunt pushes that M rating to the absolute limits.

If it is a game deal, just post it in this forum. The mods are kinda lenient when it comes to that type thing. The only people it appeals to are the people that read the VG forum, so a lot of people may miss it being in the other forum.

That being said. Pretty good deal. I jumped on it.

Resident Evil 4(Wii) - $23.63 shipped for new customers after coupon discount.
