    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. One of the greatest gaming experiences, with an intriguing story that clearly left room for a sequel. DLC was well worth the extra $69. Can’t wait for the sequel.… Expand

    If there's one word I had to use to describe my opinion on M&M's Beach Party, it'd be...... conflicted.

    Any fun you might have with other people in a multiplayer mode for bragging rights over high scores is completely eliminated by the horrible controls and outdated interface.
