    A lot of fun! But why does it force you to play with 4 players? It forces you to wait thru 3 CPU players with no fast forward. Def. a party game. But still so addictive. Volleyball , Lawn Darts, and Basketball, is soooo much fun. Could use a Practice Mode. Give this game at least a Rent!

    Summer Sports is boring at best and aggravating at worst. [May 2008, p.89]

    If you loved "Wii Sports" (and I mean REALLY loved it,) don’t mind terrible motion controls, and have two or three friends willing to play a few sub-par mini-games, then Summer Sports: Paradise Island may be worth a rental. For most Wii owners, though, it stands as just another in a string of third-party disappointment.

    A passable Wii sporting title that brings a few backyard favorites to your living room. Unfortunately, the imprecise controls don't let the game achieve its full potential. Consequently, the title is nothing more than a bit more fodder for Sony and Microsoft fanboys to point their fingers and laugh at.
