Wii Big Beach Sports

I was lucky enough to get my original Wii console package with three Wii games thrown in at the normal purchase price. Included in this was of course - Wii Sports, and also Big Beach Sports and Carnival Games. Wii Big Beach Sports comes with 6 games including Volleyball, Disc Golf, Cricket, Bocce Ball, Soccer and Football. The graphics is cartoonist. The Football is just a two player a side game which means your limited in play options. Disc Ball and Bocce Ball are similar - just "push-throw" the Wii remote and exert the right amount of force to get close to the target, it gets boring after awhile. The cricket is the best game of the 6 although you only control the bowler and batter in each innings and hitting a six and four is pretty easy. Judging a run is a much harder proposition and I found it was just easy not to run and hit boundaries, as every wicket loss is minus runs - just like indoor cricket. The soccer and volleyball are fun although the controls in soccer are difficult to master with you not controlling the players movements only the "kicks".



Wii Carnival Games is 25 mini-games set in a carnival atmosphere. Many of the games can also be found in your bigger arcade's - games like alley ball and ka-pow (knocking down clowns) should be familiar to all. If you like fairs this is just like one on your t.v., but without the expensive admission prices, the crowds and the month old food. It can have up to four player at one time so it a really good family/ social game. Winning games wins you ticket which you can trade in for various items/ prizes. The controls on the games are pretty intuitive and work well, although minute control is difficult on more precise games.

I don't know if I would have normally brought either of these games off the shelf. But with both of them having been thrown in with the original Wii console purchase I'm glad for the added variety they give to my Wii game collection.
