The “Break it Down” Blog

For those that don’t want to read the whole thing:

Score: 6/10

Now, why did I rate it this way? First off the ENTIRE THING is mini games, even though there is a Story mode, I noticed that waiting for the worthless cutscenes and the “cell” that you are in between rounds actually gets in the way of the mini games and makes it more annoying to play. As an example, imagine if Wii Sports had worthless characters and long drawn out staging lobbies that you sit in between rounds for no reason. It would be annoying like that.

The mini games themselves are fine and the silly rabbits are cute to, but wow, that story mode is really frustrating and seeing the same exactly cut scene of Rayman walking out of a mini game and doing his little Matrix dance for the 114th time gets EXTREMELY OLD. I actually hate the Rayman character now.

Also I have a fundamental problem with paying $56 after taxes for mini/party games. If you party a lot and always have friends over, this might be a good addition to Wii Sports. But if you are looking to buy a game-game, skip this. Hell, I’d even suggest you buy Red Steel instead of this and it didn’t get very good reviews.
