Advantages: Very fun multi-player action

Disadvantages: Nothing amazing but great fun.

Japanese Developer: Hudson Soft.

Price paid for game: £4.80.


I was a big fan of the original release of this game on the old Xbox. So when I saw this on Play.com I snapped it up. I didn't even realise that it had been released. But it must have been out for a while now as I only paid £4.80 for it. At that price it was a bargain. I'm not sure that I would have paid full price for it though.

Up to 4 people can play at once. If there are any spare slots then the slot is filled with a computer player which is not nearly as fun.

The game has a game show theme with a commentator making funny comments on the action as you play through your mini-games. With the contestants battling it out to win the tournament. You can create your own tournaments that allow you to choose anywhere between 1 and 45 mini-games. With a choice of 6 characters which are the same as in the original game. Mini-games are set over 7 different planets, with each planet having it's own theme. The planets are Lava, Machine, Ice, Water, Casino, Black Hole and Earth.

My favourite mini-game is the one where you all roll around in big metal balls (like the ones used in the Gladiators TV show) trying to knock each other off a shrinking platform. This was in the original game. Glad they kept it in.

This game is very easy to just pick up and play and the controls are very easy to get the hang of. This helps to make the game a lot of fun when your friends come around for a booze up. Even people who don't often play computer games can join in.

So, overall I would highly recommended this game. It's not graphically amazing and doesn't push any boundaries. But it is great fun when playing multi-player. Which is really what this game is about. You can also take this game online which mirrors the offline play. And keep track of the leader boards on Xbox Live.

Summary: Highly recommended.
