    The presentation is solid, the gameplay inviting, and the visuals stellar.

    A fun title, but we can't promise that in a couple of months you won't be trading it in.

    There really should be a full ten decathlon events in the game; seven leaves you feeling hungry for more variety.

    Just too limited in its scope for the long haul. What is here is certainly enjoyable.

    Short, and I mean really short gameplay. With only seven events, the party's over before it even gets started.

Pero enormemente divertido, sobre todo en su faceta multijugador. Su jugabilidad está basada en machacar botones, pero también hay que tener un timing preciso para ejecutar acciones (por ejemplo, saltos). La realidad es que el juego es tremendamente divertido , manteniendo el espíritu de los mejores arcades de finales de los 90 (o principios de los 2000). En mi opinión el mejor de la historia en su género.… Expand
