I'll get this in the New Year, it does look great but I imagine needs a 
serious time investment to get the most from it.

The wife and I have been playing Rayman and it is superb! Really good 
fun. The mini games are both highly original and insane in equal 
measures. Some of the bunnies actions are pure comedy, genuine laugh out 
loud stuff, which is rare for any console game. The start-up of the 
toilet door slamming mini game had me in school boy stitches :) and 
sheep sheering, cow throwing and the awesome plunger end of level games 
are wonderful. I was very surprised to find the story (what there is of 
it) engaging - after a few levels it really starts to make you WANT to 
carry on playing to find out what will happen.

Truly great stuff.

My right shoulder, yes :) Have you unlocked all of the Wii Sports 
training games? I loved the bowling one where you knock down as many 
pins as you can, or the tennis target practise. The boxing punch-bag was 
cool too, but dodging the tennis balls the trainer throws at you is well 
hard!

Likewise, I'll have to post my code after lunch.

Cheers,
