Hmm, i hadn't really even considered playing it. But i checked out a few videos and I am now kind of interested to at least rent it. The online play video was funny... though i can only guess at how annoying get snowballs thrown at you will be =P

Might have to check this out now.

should buy it at Target, they add exclusive content only if you get the LE at the store.

Oh? thought it was just for Wii... and the way they were presenting it with the balance board, it looked quite dumb.

Never liked games slapped with an athletes name plastered all over the title, and probably never will. But to each his own.

All the athlete sports titles have been mostly extreme sports, except tiger woods and all besides dave mira have been good games. Tony hawk franchise being the most popular.

Sounds to me like you just dont like sports games, but yep to each his own.

FIFA, PES 2009, SSX Tricky, etc. I do like.

But games that use a persons name to make the title look GOTY quality, not so much. Its no different than a movie showing the actors names in bold on their wall scrolls at the movies, 90% of them usually end up sucking with hype.

My favorite level from SSX was Untracked. It had an awesome BMG playing and was like an open mountain with no boundaries, with huge drops and this game looks just like that x10.
