5.0 out of 5 stars Don't listen to the other reviews
If you are even procrastinating about getting this bundle don't. It is a steal at this price. Viva pinata party animals is alone worth $18. One has to remember that these games are for kids, and the younger, the better (less than 10). My 3 kids play Party Animals all the time (age 8, 6, and 4) and they love it ( i have all 3 systems, Xbox, Wii, and PS3, and party animals...

1.0 out of 5 stars Great Cause... Not great titles
I'm amazed that they would put out a bundle appealing to our charitable side, yet fill it with such horrible games. The real charity here would be that you would buy it just to support the Children's Miracle Network. I suspect that they would much rather have your direct donation though.

If you are even procrastinating about getting this bundle don't. It is a steal at this price. Viva pinata party animals is alone worth $18. One has to remember that these games are for kids, and the younger, the better (less than 10). My 3 kids play Party Animals all the time (age 8, 6, and 4) and they love it ( i have all 3 systems, Xbox, Wii, and PS3, and party animals is one of the top games they play). They insist that I play with them (4 people can play at once). Don't worry about metacritic scores for games that will cost $6 each. When metacritic and gamerrankings scores games, they consider the cost of the games as well. For $59.99 each (Shrek and Sonic retailed for that, and $39.99 for VP:PA) they deserve the low scores they got. But for $6 (the cost of Wooper and fries and drink) each just buy it. You can break open the pack and all 3 games are individually wrapped, thus they can be stocking stuffer, or gifts for other small kids with Xbox's. There is no denying that these are not AAA games like Fable, Fallout etc, but common, what do you expect for $6? That is the price of most arcade games on Live.

I give this bundle 5 Stars because of price. The games are fun enough for kids as well and even if they played it a couple of times only, you get your money worth (though you will likley get hours of play out of Viva Pinata alone). I bought 1 bundle and am considering buying a couple more to give to friends kids. Viva Pinata also has on-line multiplayer, and my older kids can play with their friends over live as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great games at a great price, January 10, 2009
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Microsoft Children's Miracle Network Games Bundle (Video Game)
I'm not sure why it's given such a bad review but for the price what can be so bad. Viva Pinata Party Animals in my opinion is worth it alone for the price. It's a fun family game that the entire family can play. I have a 4, 8 and 12 year old who enjoys playing and even me and my other half play along. It's not the Viva Pinata we're accustomed to where you have a garden but more along the lines of Mario Kart.

Shrek the Third could have been better and so could have been Sonic but again at this price, it's a steal for all 3 games. You basically pay [...] a game and it all goes to a worthy cause.

I can't agree with the first poster more! Great deal and no hesitation here! Games come individually packaged as if you had purchased each title separately!! I was THRILLED! I was expecting one box and all games in one package! My son is very happy with them! For the price, it's a GREAT deal!

These games get horrible scores on Metacritic. Don't be fooled by the Viva Pinata title. It's not the original which gets great reviews, it's the shoddy sequel that get's very poor scores. And the Sonic Game is one of the lower scored games on metacritic. As is the Shrek title. Let the buyer beware!

3.0 out of 5 stars It's For Kids, November 25, 2008
= Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Microsoft Children's Miracle Network Games Bundle (Video Game)
We don't own this 3 in 1 game, but we do have viva pinata party animals, and Shrek. The kids and I play party animals together all the time. A lot of fun for younger kids 11, 9, and 6. They don't play Shrek much though, so it may not be very good, but for $18 and a good cause I'll probably buy one anyway.

These games are all fun. Great games to spend with the family. Viva Pinata is just like Mario Party series, Shrek 3 is really fun, and sonic can be a little challenging but it's all good.
