Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Hard work for a little fun
Love the graphics in this game! Really stunning the pre-event crowds and activities are fun to watch! The events take a lot of work to learn how to win. I make GREAT jumps on the ski jumps but crash every landing. The downhillls are fun and I'm great friends with the fence! Hate the figure skating - just doesn't make sense. The luge and bobsled are great fun. Can't figure out the curling enough to enjoy it. Given enough time and desire, I suppose I could learn to love this game. REALLY enjoy the games where I can use my Miis, tho!



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not for Beginners
Some aspects of this game are good: nice graphics, funny commentators, variety of games. However, if you are not adept at doing different things with each hand at the same time, it can be frustrating. The motions needed for turning/steering are very, very subtle and sometimes pretty intricate, so there is a steep learning curve. In some events, you need to use the controller and do one motion with your right hand, and then use the nunchuck with a different motion in your left. For kids with lots of video experience, this may be part of the fun, but for younger kids (or us adults), even the beginner settings can be too difficult. We don't play it much.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - absolutely love it
Absolutely awesome!!!! I can't ski fast, or jump long, and the commentators keep saying I should have stayed in bed, but it is so great anyway - I just tell them "shut up" or "I'm trying." It's pretty hilarious. The graphics are amazing. Love the luge and skeleton. Figure skating is tricky, requires grace and precision, so no surprise there. Unbelievably real, feel the speed. Thankful, though, that when I crash into the fences or fall off the jump, I'm not actually breaking any bones! Want to keep playing because I really think I might learn to win one day.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Too hard to play.
I bought this game for my 12 year old son who is a big "gamer". He has played the game a few times. He said that it is really hard to play. I come from the generation of the Atari, so I can't provide any feedback. Just thought my son's opinion may help.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Disappointed
Lacks the intuitive control of other Wii games. Some of the games are worthless, ice skating and curling are examples. Others are repetatively boring. I would get my money back if I could.
