What a completely boring and wasteful game. Oh sure, the graphics are nice, in the story mode anyway. The girls are really nicely modeled and the graphics are certainly clean. However, once you get into the game mode, it's just quite pathetic. The graphics aren't nearly as nice in the game mode, the audio is simply terrible, and the gameplay is the worst I've seen. You start off with a strange story mode where you're on this resort island and you're supposed to team up with other girls and play volleyball. But, the story mode is pretty stupid, not to mention it really adds nothing to the game. If you really want to sit there and stare at a cartoon girl in a bikini laying by the pool, I guess you'll like it. But, it gets old quick. The gameplay is rough, to put it lightly. Lame controls, no real sense of direction and you feel very "removed" from the experience. If you want a mediocre volleyball game with nice looking girls, get Outlaw Volleyball instead. The gameplay is much more challenging and somewhat realistic and it's much more of a volleyball game than this one.
