Okay, maybe not always; in fact, maybe not often either. But if we’re talking about Rayman Raving Rabbids, the above title holds true.

The Wii is arguably one of the biggest breakthroughs in console history, allowing users to really get into the game. It’s akin to those virtual reality games we see on those futuristic/sci fi flicks. You play ping pong, by holding the Wii remote as though it were a paddle. You play boxing by using the remote and nunchuk as gloves. You move left and right, and the game responds. It’s pretty much high-tech.

So where does “annoying” come in?

One of the most must-buy Wii games should definitely be Raving Rabbids. The name of the game is simple. You control one of several crazy rabbids (or Rayman himself) who speak gibberish and run amok in your screen, and you play mini games against 3 other players. The mini games are hilarious. You either have to hit your teacher with the most paper balls, carry a long stack of dishes to a customer on the other hand, while you careen dangerously over the edge of the building, get to make the most noise in the movie house… you probably get my drift by now.

Another cool mini game is the band game, where you get to play a particular instrument. Think dance revo, but here you have to bang your remote and nunchuk up and down instead of stepping on a dance mat.
