3.0 out of 5 stars Fun game, but frustrating controls., October 18, 2009

The game is fun. Some of the activities have controls that aren't very responsive, such as BMX bike and in-line skating, making the games frustrating. Base jumping, kite surfing, jump rope and rock climbing are very fun, and seem to handle well.

Some nice features from Outdoor Challenge were removed from this game. Active points are not available in this new version. When completing personalized tournaments, the minimal passing scores cannot be adjusted either. This means that you may be playing the same event multiple times before you can compete in the next event. This becomes frustrating, when coupled with the bad controls for some events.

Overall, the game is fun, but the original Outdoor Challenge has superior controls and features.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not as good, February 21, 2010

This game is not as good as Active Life Outdoor Challenge which I recommend everyone get. You will get sweaty playing that game, but not this one. Also, that game is fun and this one is not. You will be disappointed if you bought Active Life Outdoor Challenge and liked it and then buy this one.

Unlike many of the Wii games where my kids have figured out how to just move their wrists around, this game requires actual physical activity. We already owned Outdoor Challenge, which we also love, but this game was more appealing to my 11 year old son. I highly recommend this game for when it's too hot/cold for the kids to be outside!
