    To the point: It's bowling, it's fun, it's $20. 'Nuff said. [Apr 2004, p.91]

    Doesn't try to do anything new and can't even offer some of the oomf seen in bowling games from the past.

    Very poor support for those who just want to "jump in" - of the five degrees of freedom you have in throwing the ball, three are totally Very poor support for those who just want to "jump in" - of the five degrees of freedom you have in throwing the ball, three are totally unexplained in game. Also contains a lot of randomness; throw the same way three times and you'll get three different results. Full Review »
