  1. Not too substantial, but surprisingly polished. [Apr 2009, p.91]
  2. 45
    The challenge with Winter Sports 2: The Next Challenge is spending a large amount of time attempting to master the events in this budget title, when there are other all encompassing sports games that have better controls, more depth and better visuals and commentary than this one.
  3. Honestly, no one will want to play this for more than 10 minutes. [July 2009, p.81]
  4. Winter Sports 2009: The Next Challenge is a budget title in every sense of the word. While the cheap price point and promise of numerous events may entice some gamers to give it a go, the repetitive and frustrating control scheme, the complete omission of online gameplay and overall lack of polish will turn most people off before long.
