Advantages: Nice game style, fun mini-games,

Disadvantages: No fun solo, annoying characters

As the Xbox 360 is very much a "serious" console, I was surprised by how light-hearted and playful this title- which is really a glorified collection of mini-games- happened to be. The games themselves range from mini shooting type games, to rocket racing, to reflex-testing... a wide range to appeal to all sorts of gamers, so a great mix for multi-player.

The downside is that the main character- the narrator, or spokesperson who referees these competitive mini-game matches set in space, is VERY annoying, and you'll be rushing to skip his long-winded speeches with your start button! The music, and his commentry, also wear thin immensely quickly.
Also I imagine it wouldn't be nearly as fun if you didn't have a bunch of friends to play it with- it's a social game, like mario party or something like that. The matches can be very long, though (once a five-planet game took me and three friends nigh-on three hours to decide a winner!), so be warned

Summary: A good evening in
