    So, the conclusion is this: you got a free game with your Wii when you bought it right? Just play that.

    While the game has “style,” it is pretty much broken.

    Game Party is undeserving of the Wii. The games on display are awful, but the execution manages to be even worse. There is absolutely no fun to be had here, just frustration in large doses.

    With an eye toward putting on some beer goggles to make the game better, we turned to the bottle. Ping Cup has the potential to be a decent drinking game but, again, the controls were mixed.

    The Game Party experience is like going to a party where there's nothing to drink but Tesco Value brandy and there are only four other guests and they're all racist and then your ex turns up and gets off with a Danish supermodel. Would you pay GBP 19.99 to go to that party?

    Game Party is one of those games that you will try your best to forget ever existed if you're unfortunate (or indeed stupid) enough to actually play it. All of the elements, from the god-awful controls to the disgusting character design, add up to create a game that no one should experience.

The games that people love (beer pong, darts, air hockey, etc.) that aren't included in Wii Sports/Wii Sports Resort can be found here and are sublime. If I could choose a game to be remade on modern platforms, it would definitely be a Game Party game. 10/10 would recommend anyone pick the 3 of them up… Expand

    Great bargain for the Wii! Don't be dissuaded by the mixed reviews. It takes a little bit of time to figure out the controls, but Great bargain for the Wii! Don't be dissuaded by the mixed reviews. It takes a little bit of time to figure out the controls, but don't give up! Once you do, the games are a lot of fun and highly addictive. My favorites are darts, shuffleboard, and air hockey.… Expand

To exit any game just press the home key on the controller to return to the Wii menu. For the price it is a good game for family gatherings or parties. The graphics are not up to par for serious gamers. We have had players from ages 3 to 64 compete and enjoy the games.… Expand

    Nothing works in this game. the controls are absolutely crap, and the game seems to randomly add realism. for example in the table hockey, Nothing works in this game. the controls are absolutely crap, and the game seems to randomly add realism. for example in the table hockey, your puck will fly off the table at any speed, yet you can not hit the puck hard. there simply is no variable speed, so how exaclty does it fly off the table? this goes with all of the games. it randomly adds errors and mishaps as if you are doing it. there is no way of building skill in this game because of that. the only reason this game gets a 3 and not a zero is because the trivia game is a good 20 mins time waster. bottom line, game is total crap.… Expand

    The worst game I ever got. I own lots of WII games and this one is total crap. I hate the fact I can't return a game like this one. I am The worst game I ever got. I own lots of WII games and this one is total crap. I hate the fact I can't return a game like this one. I am not able to exit any games as there are serious controller issues on mine. Basically I enter a game and have to complete the mini game before I can quit. Who wants that? If I want to quit I should be able to do it any time I want. I want a refund!!!!!!! AND THE GAMES AREN'T FUN!!!!!… Expand

    The shuffleboarding game is fun but the rest of the sports are VERY DIFFICULT to play because of the VERY BAD motion controls . For someThe shuffleboarding game is fun but the rest of the sports are VERY DIFFICULT to play because of the VERY BAD motion controls . For some reason the controls do not work with the other games . The trivia mode does not make sense. I would not recommend anyone to buy this game. If you want a good party game to play with family and friends , I suggest that you buy wii sports, wii sports resort, Mario and sonic at the Beijing 2008 Olympic games, New super Mario bros wii, mario party 8, or mario kart wii . This game is just a knockoff version of wii sports .… Expand
