Mario VS Sonic at the Olympics

Photobucket

Who doesn't love the Olympics and who doesn't love Nintendo and Sega characters competing for for things. Someone I'm sure but they are important so let's begin.

Gameplay: Here's how it works you take a host Mario and Sonic characters and go to the Olympics and with your wii-mote and nunchunk in hand you fail about in and attempt to get a high score. Really that's it and typical to Nintendo its actually really fun if not entirely exhausting. The events range from easy and friendly to complicated and frustrating, you'll either be flailing widely trying to build power of speed or you''ll be preforming complicated timing maneuvers...sometimes both. 4/5

Story:
You're at the Olympics with Mario and Sonic...the end. 5/5

Graphics: Graphically the game is flush and pretty everything is smoothly tailored and quite enjoyable to look at. Characters all have a unique feel and motions are most unique to the many characters. 5/5

Audio:
Cheering crowds and overly excited annoucer make the game feel more real but there's no real music or theme to be found. The game tho doesn't really need one so its not a minus. Characters also all have funny hoots and calls, as well as some cute things they say or in Bowser's case roar when they win a medal. 4/5

Replay:
The game is definately a party game tho it will give you muscle pain after about an hour so it takes away from your ability to play for long periods. Also every so often messages pop up at the end of a match advising you to take a break and about the third one you start listening and go fine an ice pack. 3/5

Overall:
Well this is like I said before a genuinely entertaining game playing with friends or family is a big plus for it and you'll laugh and cry just like the real Olympics minus the steroids and tendent slashing in parking lots...The main problem the game has is that it's exhausting to play for more than and hour and there is always going to be that person who is really good at the event naturally and you'll hate them. All in all I wouldn't pay full price for this game wait awhile and get it used when it drops in price. 4/5
