I've owned the game for a couple weeks now and enjoy it.

My friends have had a lot of fun playing the game too when they have come over. Several have gone and bought the game as well based on their experience playing it.

I'd recomend a rent it if your skeptical about it, as I didn't have any of the control issues and may depend on a person by person case.

 

Have gotten deep into the one player mode?  This is where the controls fall flat on their face.

If you didn't like it that's fine, but there's no reason to say it's the game's fault. It just wasn't your thing. I happen to really like it. A lot of people like it.

And I've never had trouble with the controls. I don't know if you're doing something wrong or what, but they've always worked perfectly for me.

Good review, I agree.

A lot of people like country music but that doesn't mean that I have to.  This is a review that I wrote which is my opinion.  No different than the professionals except their opinions matter more I suppose.

No, you don't have to like it and I'm not saying you should, but you shouldn't act like it's a bad game because you didn't like it. I don't really like sports games. I'm not going to say that makes every sports game a bad game and that I hope they stop selling.

How deep is deep?

Me and my girlfriend have each gotten around 4 hours into single player mode. 

I've spent more time in multi-player mode though.  I'll try out some more single player mode and see if the controls do come apart.  Either way, the mult-player mode was worth the purchase for me so far.

 Don't worry, half the time, they don't.

@ Phendrana But it is a bad game. Explain to me why there is slowdown in a game as plain looking as Boom Blox? It is poorly made and the controls are bad. For a game like this they need to be spot on. They are not even close. I'd rather have a quality game sell than this. I know that my voice doesn't sway many opinions but I can express what I believe and I believe that the game stinks.

I must respectively disagree with amp316's posting.

The game is fun. It is precise -- to the degree the Wii remote and your own hand allows you oto be precise. This is a game I can play with my 6 year old son, with my non-game playing wife, with friends, and with myself.

I will admit that I have not progressed very far through the adventure mode -- but then again, what game is not repetitive.
