    Offers an addictively eclectic mix of item collecting, gambling, and relationship building; tantalizing eye candy; and one outstanding game of volleyball.

    It's an experience you will tire of. The volleyball is good, and fun. The girls are gorgeous. The music isn't annoying. And there's the two-player mode. But just like real volleyball, the whole experience can only remain fresh for so long.

    She's less a game and more an interactive vacation - something I can play whenever I have time and not get completely lost. [Mar 2003, p.130]

    Without marrying any substantial content or meaningful context to the visuals, this is the type of depth-free cheap titillation that we need to move past if we're ever to break away from the stereotypical gutter that society at large perceives current videogames to be in.

    Its a game made by team ninja, of course the graphix are going to be amazing. The actual gameplay is a lot of fun 2, taking a very arcady approach. Also, the gamblin is solid and the friend scheme is a good idea. Only thing that keeps this game from being godlike is the multiplayer, why couldn't it be 4 players? jeez, at least let player be on the same team.....… Expand

    I give it a seven 'cause it's not like it totally sucked. I'll admit I was disappointed when I found out there was no nudity in the game and dissappointed when I found out it's only two players and the two players can't even play on the same team. But the casion games were good, playing Volleyball and the Hopping game aren't bad either. And the girls are hot which is a plus, but it's not a game I would buy . . .… Expand

    Well Kevin R..it would seem we have come to some kind of agreement...on a whim, my friend brought it over to my house for us to "play"...while I actually wanted to play some volleyball, he wanted just to sit there and play the lame mini games... i personally think real girls are hotter then polygons..but thats just me i guess...the volleyball aspect is alright...could have been better...confusing controls..the casino stuff was kinda cool for about 10 mins...but if you like fake women with HHH size boobs, knock yourself out...… Expand
