I bought a Parkzone Ember 2 BNF (Bind-N-Fly) micro plane for $89.99 from a Hobbyzone and had great fun flying it around a local park today. I had a Spektrum controller already, so I needed to do was bind the plane to controller and give the tiny battery a charge. I was ready to rumble [...]

Despite the mediorce reviews I went out and got SimCity Creator for the Wii. It fills that void which has been left empty since Sim City 4 Rush Hour. It has some nice features like waving your wii for the disasters. The roads can also be nice and curvy. :)
