    Overall, Balls of Fury for Wii delivers solid motion control ping-pong action at home.

    The only gratification you can get out of this game is when you pass right by it in the game aisle. Use the money you would have spent for far more gratifying ventures, like rehab. Because if you actually bought this game, I’m sure that’s exactly where you need to be headed.

    With a few unlockable characters to its name that you can get in about two hours of play there is little to really keep you entertained here. Even a rental is too good for this.

    It's been a good while since I've come across a game of this caliber, which is to say that I don't often see titles that suck this bad in this day and age.

    A shrine to gaming incompetence. Arriving in the same month as "Galaxy" it's gotta take some balls to release something as totally inept as this and expect people to play it. [Christmas 2007, p.64]

    Balls of Fury is already one of the worst games of the year. The storyline is uninspired and the boring gameplay and outdated graphics make this table tennis game a real disaster of a game. Parents of all minor Wii-owners: don't be tempted to buy this game for a reasonable price. Whatever the price might be, it will be too much for this terrible game.

    I love hitting balls to the other players in anticipation of them giving a perfect return back to me and I can smack it into oblivion andI love hitting balls to the other players in anticipation of them giving a perfect return back to me and I can smack it into oblivion and score a point; ooohh the fun of table tennis. Furthermore, the ball is on fire, giving it a new spin and direction which is a positive move. I enjoy the movie cus it has ping pong balls and thus I enjoy this delectable game as well.… Full Review »
