2012 HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE - BEN 10 OMNIVERSE Wii game review

Here is a gift idea for the Ben 10 fan on your list and also for any little boy who likes action packed games!



Ben 10 Omniverse is based on the brand new series from the world renowned Ben 10 franchise! Players will experience the exciting Omniverse world in a new action game, where Ben discovers that untold events from the past are affecting the present. Armed with a new Omnitrix, players have the power to dial up 13 playable alien heroes, including new never before seen aliens like Bloxx and Gravattack and some old favorites like XLR8 and Heatblast. Fight in 11 action-packed levels throughout the subterranean alien city of Undertown, the streets of Bellwood, and the new Plumber base in Max's shop.

When a modification for Ben's Omnitrix goes haywire, his new partner, Rook, gets sent back in time, meeting Ben from when he was 10. Rook and Young Ben get into a scuffle with the villain Malware who absorbs Rook's Proto-Tool for new powers, leading to a terrifying alternate future. Play as both Teen Ben and Young Ben and work with your new partner Rook to solve crime, fix both the past and present, and defeat the evil plans of Malware, intent on destroying the world!

MY THOUGHTS

My son is a huge fan of Ben 10 and has been since the first day of the show.  SO of course when he saw and heard about the latest Ben 10 game for the Wii, he immediately started telling me how much he wanted it for Christmas.  Of course after recieving it and reading about it, I understand why he wanted it. 

I mean you get to play as 16 different characters from the show.  I know my son will enjoy this feature possibly the most since he loves the variety of aliens from the show.  Also there is the new weapon - Proto-Tool which is sure to make the game more exciting and entertaining. 

I personally am also excited about the game.  I know I know!  How silly does that sound but I have to say I have always enjoyed the cartoon too!  I can not wait to play the game with my son after Christmas and am sure it will played and enjoyed for hours and hours by our whole family.

The game is available now and is available for the Wii, WiiU, PS3, Xbox360, Nintendo DS and 3DS.  SO there is definitely a copy available for whatever console you have at home.  The game can be purchased at local stores where games are sold and at online retailers like Amazon.com for $ 29.96 for the Wii version.  Other versions' prices may vary.  SO be sure to grab the hot Ben 10 game as a Christmas gift or stocking stuffer!
