Broken, unclear controls make this simple disc of mini games frustrating and unenjoyable.

Starts with most of the games locked, needing to be unlocked through a tiny selection of events, most of which are the same, or very similar. I get the idea of opening things up as you go, but it should be about opening up more courses not whole events. I shouldn't have to go rock climbing to unlock snowmobileing. Weather you play alone or with a friend there must always be 4 players, which means they add computer players if you want them or not. The biggest problem is the controls, which range from unclear to unresponsive. Just when you think you have the hang of an event, your motions and button pressing just stop working. The AI players are so far ahead of the skill level you start with, which means you have to play the same events over and over with broken controls just to unlock a new game with broken controls.

Game costs $20, and that makes it a little easer to accept, however it should work not matter the cost. Even at it's low price it's still not worth it. Leave it on the shelf.
