2 out of 5 stars It's not what I expected   September 28, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I love the bowling game that comes with Wii Sports so I was expecting this game to be something like that, but with more realistic characters, bowling alleys and more control over the ball. The graphics are ok, there are several different alleys, but the characters which do look real, don't move very fluidly. It isn't real sharp either as I'm accustomed to with other Wii games.

The control over the ball is nothing like in Wii Sports. In Wii Sports it feels like you're really bowling. In this game it feels very awkward. It seems like the ball goes in a certain direction, no matter what you do. Some people have commented that after you play the game a while and build up some time, the control gets better, but shouldn't it be a game of skill, right from the start?

The voices get annoying very quickly. I was ready to smack my charater after about 10 minutes. Thank goodness you can turn them off. The characters I used seemed to repeat the same things over and over. It seemed like there should be some more random phrases for a little more variety.

I hope there will be other bowling games out there that are more realistic, that have the feel and movement of the Wii Sports version with real looking characters and lots of bowling alley choices. I wish this game would have fulfilled those expectations. If I hadn't played the Wii Sports version before renting this game I might have been happier with it. But by comparison it didn't measure up.



4 out of 5 stars Bowling fun   September 18, 2008
The game is ok. It has some limitations to it. When making your Avatar it limits you options on how it looks. I have had it for about a month now and I play it regularly. It's ok. Not much of a challenge. I have bowled a 300 game on it:)


5 out of 5 stars No longer a gutter bowler   September 17, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I dont have a wii as of yet but played this in Houston on my recent visit , this bowling game brought back so many memories that will remain in my heart til I die. So much fun, entertaining and I didnt have to do much moving around to play and the ball did not go in the gutter. I started bowling at 10 years old on a league and continued to bowl for many years as an adult. Til this day I was a bowler who never bent my knee and teased quite a bit. This game will give you and your family lots of entertainment, laughs and bring back memories of a bowler for years to come. Have fun!

2 out of 5 stars very poor if you are a good bowler   September 6, 2008
This game has been so aggravating It is on it's way to the trash bin. It is inconsistant, and even after a lot of hours building up my character it is nonsense to continue. For someone who is not a bowler, I guess there might be some enjoyment, but after it sends your ball into the gutter for the 5th or 6th time..for seemingly no reason it will aggravate you no end. With its inconsistantcy I don't know why Nintendo licenced it. And why the Wii game is $15.00 more than the other venues, you should pass on this one.
