Harder game than I expected
Post Via amazon in Wii Games ReviewWinter Sports The Ultimate Challenge
I have only spent about two hours with this game so far, but it is quite difficult. The downhill skiing takes quite a bit of practice to just get down the mountain. The bobsledding/luge doesn't give the player a lot of feedback on what one should be doing to perform better. The controller vibrates when you bump the sides but there are no visual queues to respond to. The curling is out and out confusing. After 15 minutes I couldn't figure out how to even toss a stone.
Bottom line, if you bought this game hoping to jump in and do some ski jumping, downhill, etc from the get go, then you will be disapointed. Some people will appreciate the difficulty. I just didn't expect it. The Wii is used by my kids (oldest is 6) 90% of the time and the controls are much to subtle for them - and for me, still, at this point.
