    It may not be the most engaging game out for the Wii at this time, and there are some control issues now and then, but the amount of games within the game is pretty impressive and it can provide some great family fun.

    The game is stable and generally fun if lawn games are your thing, and you overlook variety in the game types not yielding much diversity in their style of play.

    A package that isn't completely terrible, nor is it remarkable in any way. The mini-games that are included are fairly simple to play and could have been a lot more fun if the controls had been fine-tuned. Conversely, while the controls can be frustrating at times they don't completely ruin the experience, especially when playing with friends.

    Enjoyable party game. The underhand throw technique does take a little getting used to but its actually quite accurate once you get used to it. The trick seems to be, be really consistent with your throws, and then adjust your aim line to compensate for however much your off left to right. Some of the multiplayer only games are really good too. had a blast with the water wars, rc trucks and rc plane games for instance. Though all of those are more of gamer games, casual or non gamers will have trouble with them.… Expand
