| dtewi said: Going by everyone's standards (its impact), I give the game a 9.7. But the game itself, which people seem to be negelecting to review, isn't that great of a game. It quickly becomes boring and not much replay value. There is no reason to give Wii Sports higher than a 9 in all honesty. |
It's fine that you rate Wii Sports based on your own personal experience. Some of us just like to look at the broader picture. We were challenged to explain our reasoning, and so I did.
BTW, in the broader picture, your complaints of replay value seem to be an outlier. I'm not at my Wii, so I can't check the current stats, but as of August the typical Wii owner who submits data to the Nintendo Channel played Wii Sports for over 36 hours. It's a much higher play time than such well-regarded games as Super Mario Galaxy, Mario Kart Wii, or Metroid Prime 3.
