Here are three videos courtesy of GameTrailers.com, showcasing the gameplay of the Wii Sports sequel Wii Sports Resort. Included in these three are the sword dueling, jetski and frisbee gameplay clips. The sword dueling uses the new WiiMotion Plus add-on, to enhance gameplay and bring the Wii closer to a true 1:1 experience.

Special note of interest to those of you who are big fans of Wave Race, as this is touted to be the spiritual successor to that franchise and besides using your Miis, is supposed to be a deeper and more intuitive game.

Wii Sports Resort is expected to be released in Spring 2009 and it has been indicated that it will include as many as 10 different games in the compilation.

Another 7 more songs have been revealed for Guitar Hero III. Is it just me, or have we been spoiled by the thought of original recording so much now that we tend to look down on "as made famous by" songs for the upcoming titles? Some of them I actually prefer to the original, others I'd like to forget. In any case here's the latest batch:

  • "Miss Murder," by AFI
  • "3's and 7's," by Queens of the Stone Age
  • "Raining Blood," by Slayer
  • "Reptillia," by The Strokes
  • "Paranoid," as made famous by Black Sabbath
  • "Cities on Flame," as made famous by Blue Oyster Cult
  • "Mississippi Queen," as made famous by Mountain

Head over to Joystiq for the complete list to date as well as Youtube links to each song in case you need to jog your memory. Wink
