A game the whole family can play!
The worst thing about this game is that it gets really old really fast when you play by yourself. Its fun while you are trying to get used to the Wiimote and the whole experience is new. Its fun when you finally learn the nuances of the Wiimote and you start doing really well at all the games, and then you just can't play it by yourself anymore, and that doesn't take long. The baseball is horrible. The pitcher has the complete advantage over the hitter. I have played a lot of this game both by myself, and with friends, and there is really no way to get a high scoring game, in fact, hardly ever even a scoring game at all. Also, the Wiimote is not quite sensitive enough for all the putting situations in the golf game.
The good aspects of this game, however, far outweigh the bad. The coolest thing is when you make your Mii for the game, and realize that, holy crap, it really does look just like you! And then you have this little Mii that looks just like you running around and doing all these cool things. It just rocks. Then there is the multiplayer, this isn't multiplayer like get a bunch of your gamer friends together and go game, this is like get your mom and play some tennis with her, or play some golf with your grandfather sort of multiplayer. In other words, these games and the way they are played are appealing to everyone. I have been to parties where more people wanting to play Wii Sports than anything else. I haven't had as fun in a long time as I have playing tennis on this with my roommates. In the summertime set it up outside with a projector, and get some exercise and some sun! Plus, as a result of the Wiimote, there is almost no learning curve. Everything is almost completely intuitive, and it just takes a little bit to adjust to using the Wiimote. This game was NOT intended as a game for hard core gamers, and I can picture all the people who play video games for the sake of blowing things up or hacking them with a sword, or driving over the speed limit not liking this game very much. But this game really is a very good game that pretty much everyone can enjoy!
