Mario and Sonic, two of the biggest video game legends, come together for the first time. Too bad the game isn't good.

User Rating: 6 | Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games WII
By darkness0634 | Review Date:
For the first time ever, the Mario and Sonic characters star together in Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games. You would think that this would be an excellent game for two excellent characters. Too bad it isn't. The poor motion controls, the game's inability to explain the instructions well, and the boring minigames make this game not worth buying.

So, like usually do, I'll break this down into the bad parts and the good parts.

The good: The visuals are good, and for the multiplayer, the visuals are surprisingly good. There's no delay in the visuals, and the animation is excellent. Sadly for the good, that's it.

The bad: The events themselves are quite boring. For 100m sprint, all you do is alternate the wii remote and nunchunk up and down. Quite boring. And the instructions are quite confusing sometimes. (If you're one of those people who want to destroy their TV after playing the triple jump event, I don't blame you) The game needs a lot of work done.
Basically, this game needs a lot of work.
