Now is the time for all plumbers and hedgehogs to come to the aid of their count-wii. Eggo, now is the time for Mario and Sonic together at the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. Excellent idea bringing the two biggest console heroes aboard. Graphics are engaging. A first for my Wii console! Game play is interesting all throughout as you go unlocking major events and circuits but control unfortunately, is not that responsive. In other words, game play is not so smooth after all that GUI goodness. I bought it initially for the Table Tennis event. Too bad it's not really the Main Event. Archery seems more appealing if not downright frustrating. Rowing is actually manageable. Trampoline is fun. Javelin is amusing. 100m relay is so-so. Jumpstarts are the trick of the trade for races. Finally, where are the horses?
