Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games

This game is fun, don't get me wrong, but I was a little disappointed. The graphics were not as good as the the first game and the controls can go a little haywire. It's also harder to break records than in the fist game, so the game is a little challenging. But other than that, the game is very fun and I recommend it.

Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Winter Gameshas many games (listed below) and play options so there's something for everyone. It also has variety for different situations, such as playing alone, as a team or against others, which make it a great all-around game. Initial events: Alpine Skiing (Downhill and Giant Slalom) Ski Jumping (Individual and Team Large Hill) Freestyle Skiing (Moguls and Ski Cross) Snowboard (Halfpipe and Snowboard Cross) Speed Skating (500m, Short Track 1000m, Short Track Relay) Figure Skating Skeleton Bobsleigh Ice Hockey Curling Dream Ski Cross Dream Snowboard Cross Other "Dream" events are unlocked as you play.

I had high hopes for this game and my hopes were exceeded. If you liked Mario and sonic at the Summer Games, trust me, you will like this on ten times more. Pros -This game has superb graphics that really get you into the winter feel -It is not as strenuos as the first one which leaves more playing time and less rest time -The wii motion controls are excellent whether it is skiing or speed skating you feel like you are sonic or mario -Some of the games aren't even in the winter olymics. You may think this is a bab thing but having a snow ball fight is one of my favorite things to do in this game. use thhe nunchuck to build a snowball nd flick the wii remote to throw it -excellent replay value unlike the previous mario and sonic game that had no replay value this game you can paly over and over and still break new records Cons -just like last game multy player is very unfair like , whoever has the fatest or strongest guy wins All in all this is a great ga...
