Summary
Game Description
Wii Sports offers five distinct sports experiences, each using the Wii Remote to provide a natural, intuitive, and realistic feel. Players can use their own Mii caricatures in the game and play them against their friends' Miis for a more personalized experience. As players improve, their Miis' skill levels will increase, so that they can see exactly how much better they've become.

Its a homerun, its 40-love, its a strike, its a knock-out, its a hole-in-one.
Anyone who's expecting a weak throw-in with the console would be sadly mistaken.
Story: There's no story, honestly, not one thing in this game could possibly be perceived as a storyline, lol.
GamePlay: What this game's all about. You can choose from five different sports to play: baseball, tennis, bowling, boxing, and golf. You play by simply move your wiimote (and possibly your nun chuck, depending on which sport you're playing) in the same fashion you would move the object that you would normally use to play the sport. This must be one of the most translucent games on the market. Say you're playing Wii Sports tennis, you would swing your wiimote as if it were an actual racket to hit the ball, just as you would in the real sport. All sports are fun and addictive, from the sweaty, brutal brawls of boxing, to the polished, anxiety-filled rounds of bowling... Except maybe golf. (but hey, that's my opinion, you may like it, lol) Multiplayer is highly recommended.
Audio/Visual: The visuals are very unpolished and bland, but they really don't need to be any better. Still, I would've liked to see my Mii actually run in baseball, rather than float around like some sort of leg-less superhero, lol. The audio is lacking as well, and the game is mostly without the classic Nintendo tunes we've all come to love.
Bottomline: Wii Sports is an illustrious, fun-for-the-whole-family game with both notable single-player and multi-player features. Still, it's not enough alone to merit buying a Wii, and you'll definitely get burned out on it quickly if you don't take breaks by playing other games.

Wii Sports not much to say
Wii sports is the game you get when you get your wii and after you make your miis for the first time. Well there is not much to say about Wii Sports It is a really good game. The golf is not that much fun(not a big fan of golf games). The gameplay is awsome,music is ok the annoncer is annoying,fun factor awsome. But it is more of a party game than a single player thing unless you are trying to get more skill points on your miis. You are not going to play it for long alone.
Story:(there was no story)
Graphics:3/5
Gameplay:5/5
Fun Factor:4/5
Music:4/5

GamePro Presents Boot Camp!
There has been a lot of discussion going on in the press lately about the beneficial (or detrimental, depending on your viewpoint) effect that video games can have on real world behavior. For instance, part-time lawyer and full-time crazy person Jack Thompson has famously posited that violent video games can train people to be better killers, and studies have shown that video games can help improve hand-eye coordination and reaction times.
