As many of you know, a few weeks ago, I was able to attend the EA (Play Label) Blogger Day. While there, I was there, one game I was not expecting to enjoy that much was NERF N-Strike Elite. It follows up on the story of the original NERF N-Strike, where 2 players can fully cooperate through the first-person on-rail levels with a choice of 4 characters. Each character is able to carry 4 customizable blasters at a time, switching between them with the D-Pad on the Wii Remote. The big difference between this game and its predecessor is that the included NERF blaster contains a “Red Reveal,” allowing you to view ememy weaknesses and codes to access special areas of the game. As with the original game, it doubles as a real NERF blaster, allowing you to shoot darts at your little sister or pesky neighbor.

Wait. You did not go to EA and get that footage. Why did you copy and paste my article from WiiNintendo? I don’t mind if you refer to it or even quote it, but please do not simply copy and paste it, and then add your byline.
