NEED TO KNOW The dastardly Dr Eggman knows how to crack us up. No yolking! He has built an out-of-this-world amusement park, and he has hatched up the right rides and many awesome attractions. Plus, there are a few colourful, wonderful worlds to wander through – at super Sonic speed, natch. However, there is a big problem... Dr Eggman has poached amazing alien Wisps in order to power the amusement park. Once Sonic learns about this, the path becomes clear – it’s a race to save the Wisps. Our speedy hedgehog hero will need to scramble Eggman’s plans, then free the Wisps. The sunny side of saving Wisps is that they can gift you a few delicious new powers. The Jade Wisp will whisk you through solid matter to sniff…

NEED TO KNOW The same delightful devs that built the Marvel’s Avengers games are getting the gang together for Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy. There’s no core-crew roster rotation here.

Lead your outlandish crew of oddballs as you right the wrongs of a catastrophe you kicked off – accidentally! Swing along to rockin’ rock ’n’ roll tunes as you trek between epic locations. This mob of misfits is on a multi-world wild ride packed with familiar Marvel mates (and new ones), though some aren’t friendly. Use Quill’s Element Blasters and jet-boots to tame threats. Tag in buds to help. The Team Huddle specials are wonderful. When the Guardians…

Pick your favourite finger-tapping tune, nab handy chord charts, then strum on to the beat of the drum and other instruments. Harmonise your way through a full song, or practise the tricky bits with Riff Difficulty. Slap…

NEED TO KNOW We love a simple game name that says it all. Cruis’n Blast is a perfect example. Cruise around with rad rides from your tricked-out garage.

There are plenty of choices, like an F1 full-speedster, a hard-out Hummer, or a fast-and-furious street racer. You can make it weirder too – hop into a hovercraft, chew up tracks in a chopper, or unleash speed in a UFO. Still not weird enough? Tame tracks as a Triceratops, break away from uniform as a unicorn, or make smooth moves as a hammerhead shark! You can choose from 23 regular and wacky rides to…

IT’S-A MII Here’s how to spec your Mii golfer for hole in one fun. It’s OK to split your points, but prioritise Power upgrades early. Upping Control makes it easier to hit where you aim.

Waluigi has Stamina, Speed and Control (plus opponent-interrupting specials). Lil Bowser Jr. is speedy with solid Control and handy specials. Too slow to nab them? Grab Toad or Wario!

NO. 1 AT MURDERBALL Wheelchair rugby is a fast-paced, full contact team sport for athletes with a disability, and is a summer Paralympic Games sport. Originally also known as ‘murderball’ due to the aggressive nature of the game, it combines aspects of basketball, handball and rugby. Teams have four players on the court, and score by carrying a volleyball across the goal line. The ball can be carried, dribbled or passed, while being bounced every 10 seconds. The sport is played indoors on a regulation basketball court. A player’s wheelchair must be lightweight and easy to manoeuvre, yet able to withstand collisions. Australia is currently ranked No. 1 in the world by the International Wheelchair Rugby Federation!…

KZ : Is there something that often surprises people about archery? J: Most people think archery is a physical sport and that the hard part is pulling the bow back, but the hardest part is staying focused and controlling your thoughts before you shoot. KZ : Any advice for K-Zoners who want to improve their archery skills? J: Find someone that is better than you and start asking questions and learning as much as you can. I try to figure out what my weak points are with my shooting, then work on making them better. There are different things you can do if you aren't able to shoot a bow for a few days, like using a big stretchy band to imitate shooting the bow and feeling all of the…
