Real life chess
We might have lumped this one in with real life sport but we all know that it's not - and is only classed as such so the nerd horde feels better about itself. Chess is that game you know how to play but dare not try, because it's punishable by death. That may or may not be true, but it's certainly possible. I wouldn't know. I've never tried it. Real life chess involves real people, which is always a negative, and they often take ABSOLUTELY AGES to make a move. This, more often than not, is in the hope that you'll briefly fall asleep, providing a window of opportunity for the cheating scumbag to rearrange the pieces and corner you in a devilish check mate. We're quite glad when this happens, since it puts us out of our misery.
Wii Chess
Wii Chess is, at the end of the day, chess, but it's better than its real life counterpart in so many ways. One: you can play naked. Two: you don't have to leave your bedroom (online play is included). Three: the computer makes its move straight away, negating the excruciatingly boring wait for your real life opponent to spark his or her brain into life and do something. Of the three, we're most interested in number one of course. Doing something naked is always better than doing it clothed. ALWAYS.
Verdict
Wii Chess is, indeed, better than real life chess. Getting your chess freak on with pawns, kings and queens without exposing yourself to the public = a glorious win.
