4.0 out of 5 stars Great Kids game February 24, 2008

Too short for adults, but kids love it. I'm 32, and enjoyed playing until I basically mastered it and there were no new stages to play. If you've got younger children, this is a great game for them. Fun while the new challenges lasted, and is still fun for my niece/nephew who are 7 and 5.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Kids Game!! January 14, 2008

Got a PS3 in a package deal with our Sony Bravia. Not alot of games out there for 5 year olds. Got Surf's Up for Christmas, good price and looked easy for the young ones. Turned out to be an excellent purchase!
My son LOVES it and is really good at it (better than I am actually!)
All in all, I think it's a cool game, realistic graphics even though the stunts and tricks are far fetched. If you want a game that is wholesome, this is the one!

Surfing Penguins! I couldn't have thought of a better kids game to start the summer. Surf's Up - The Video Game, is the movie tie-in for - yes you guessed it - Surf's Up. This children friendly surfing game let's even the youngest of players perform cool (and highly unrealistic) aerial maneuvers and stunts. Teens and adults looking for a "real" surfing simulation should look elsewhere (try Transworld Surf for the Xbox). The game offers several different surf spots that are based on locations from the movie. 1-4 Players can play together using splitscreen mode and for those of you looking for a break from surfing, try Leaf Sliding on one of three different tracks. The game offers several unlock-able characters, surfboards and surf spots. Which thanks to the easy difficulty should be no problem to unlock. If you have kids or like Penguins or like Surfing or all of the above; you should give this ride a try.

5.0 out of 5 stars Have A Great Time Together July 14, 2008

Uh, yeah. It's about surfing penguins. My girlfriend and I are way older than the target demographic of this one, but we both love this inexpensive game. We've had a fantastic time on the co-op mode screwing around trying to beat each other's high score. The single player is even better! It's addictive gameplay once you master the control scheme. The complainers on here didn't take the time to get into it. About five minutes in I was bored and wanted to quit but four hours later they had to shut the machine off to get me to stop! Kids will certainly flip out over it but don't be a game snob, try it and you'll like it. We got it because it was cheap, and it was money well spent! We already had a great night together for only $20 and we're ready for more!

5.0 out of 5 stars Surf's Up is Way Too Fun! June 25, 2008

I purchased this game for my 7 year old grandson. He has had so much fun with it. It is a great game for kids. Plus you can play it two player -- and it was not so difficult that I couldn't play it with him. We both had a great time playing it together. The penquins were so much fun. The graphics were fantastic and the gameplay very natural.

I ordered this game for my 4yr old and I to play together. He loves it and so does the rest of the family. It is easy for little hands to manipulate and advances through the levels quickly. I would recommend this for the very young gamer. Older kids might get bored. Excellent value.

My son (age 5) really loved this game, and even my bf, who doesnt partically like video games, enjoyed this game. Most games are hard for younger children to play/understand, but this one is simple and fun....also very inexpensive!!
