Simple and intuitive fun with a good lasting appeal.

THE GOOD:

• Simple and intuitive controls makes it fun to play for almost anyone;

• Easy to understand simplified sports concepts;
• Daily fitness and medals add a good value;
• Fun multiplayer that can be played up to four people;
• Clean presentation is easy on the eyes;
• Great sound effects coming for the wiimote speaker;
• The game is "free" in North America and Europe.

THE BAD:

• Simplified gameplay makes it less replayable, because it lacks depth;
• Motion-sensing controls sometimes don't work very well, especially in boxing;
• Poor textures and light effects;
• The soundtracks and sound effects get repetitive after a while, and should have more quality.

FINAL WORDS:
Great pack-in with the Wii console. A great game for hardcore gamers to play with their non-gamers friends. A refreshing way to get more people into the gaming world.
