Product Description
Street Fighter x Tekken makes history as fighters from these two bastions of the fighting genre come together for the very first time. Utilizing the same 2D viewpoint and technology that powered Street Fighter IV, this game allows for Tekken characters such as Kazuya Mishima and Nina Williams to make the transition into the Street Fighter universe having been re-imagined using Capcom’s much-loved art style. Their looks may be different, but these characters have retained their own unique characteristics and signature moves as they go head-to-head with classic brawlers from the Street Fighter franchise in what promises to be an explosive match up.

| 95 of 101 people found the following review helpful  An updated set of Olympic games that surprisingly still seems fresh and new, By = Fun:  This review is from: Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games (Video Game) As one might expect, there are similarities between this game and the original 2008 version of this game set in Beijing and the 2010 Winter version set in Vancouver. First, this version of the game is timed to coincide with next year’s Summer Olympics in London, so expect to see a lot of references, venues, and trivia to the UK throughout the game. Second, like those games, this is essentially a set of mini-games where you can compete against the computer or each other in various events. Third, you get to choose players from both the Sonic and the Mario worlds to compete, or use your own Mii. In all honesty, I came in with tepid expectations. After all, these same games have been done already many times by many publishers by now. So with each new mini-game I tried, I braced myself for the same-old, same-old. But time and time again I was surprised at how fun and fresh each game was to play. Sega has taken an aging franchise and managed to breathe some new life into it. Here’s a list of the traditional mini-games: Aquatics: There are two events under aquatics. You can compete in a traditional swim meet, where you wave your Wii remote and nunchuk to various swimming strokes. Or, you can compete in “synchronized swimming”, where you (and any teammates) need to move your remotes in sync with each other. Badminton: In this game, you basically whack a shuttlecock back and forth. This is not a very realistic simulation; you can’t really aim your shot or do many specialized shots. As you play each side will build up energy which can be used to employ “power shots” that are difficult (but not impossible) to return. Canoeing: In this game, you wag the remote forward and back to the proper timing to coincide with your canoers’ strokes. Cycling: This one is a pretty accurate simulation of Olympic team cycling. You pump the Wii remote up and down to make your cyclist pedal. Once your cyclist runs out of steam, you move your cyclist to the end of the line to drift off your line of cyclists (making sure you stay aligned). As your cyclist builds up more energy you’ll move your way back to the front of the line, and then everyone will sprint at the end. The details on this are impressive; like in the Olympic telecasts, you’ll see a line depicting your competitors’ time. This was definitely one of my favorites. Equestrian: This was another favorite. In it, you ride your horse through an equestrian track by moving your Wii remote and nunchuk up and down like a bridle. As you approach obstacles, you need to press “A” with the correct timing to jump, and as you turn curves, you need to twist your Wii remote and nunchuk to keep you and your horse’s balance. This was a new take on a concept that’s been tried many times, and it works. Fencing: A pretty standard fencing simulation where you need to parry and thrust, getting points when you strike your opponent or knock him or her out of the lines. Football: This is a great soccer simulation where each side has four players (you can control 1 or 2 by yourself, or play with a friend to control all four). Again, controls are very intuitive; you move with the nunchuk joystick, press the A button to pass and the B button to shoot (on offense) and press the A button to intercept (on defense). It plays a lot like ice hockey in the Vancouver version. Gymnastics: Events here include rhythmic ribbon (inspired by Isaac Perry’s review, I decided to choose Bowser to dance to the Blue Danube), where you dance around and have to move the remote or press buttons in time to on-screen cues. Uneven bars is a fun activity where you have to time your character as he or she spins and jumps from bar to bar. Trampoline is different from the original version in that you don’t need to press a specific set of keys to earn points, but rather create your own routines by shifting the Wii remote in certain ways with the right timing. Shooting: This was another game I thought had been done to death, but it turned out to be surprisingly fun. You have a limited amount of time to point your Wii remote at the target and shoot it. The targets get increasingly smaller, so it’s not as easy as you might think to get a straight shot in. If you happen to have a gun attachment, this one is actually pretty realistic. Table Tennis: This was another one like badminton. It’s not close to a realistic simulation like the Wii Sports Resort version. Instead, it’s more a game of timing, where you need to swipe at the ball at the right time. As in badminton, the “power shot” feature makes gameplay a lot shorter. Track and Field: There are a number of events within track and field. Of course there are the races where you need to waggle your remote fast to win, as well as a realistic relay race. For the field events, there’s the discus, the javelin, the hammer throw, and the long… 44 of 49 people found the following review helpful Extreemly fun alone or with friends, By = Fun: Amazon Verified Purchase(What’s this?) This review is from: Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games (Video Game) Mario and Sonic at the London 2012 Olympics is great family friendly game. I was reluctant to get this game at first because I usually play games alone.It is a 4 player “party” type game full of mini events from the Olympics as well as “Dream events” that take place in mario and sonic based levels.The game has a great cast of mario and sonic characters as well as the use of your Mii’s.After doing events you get scratch cards that you can win music from Mario and sonic games as well as costumes for your Mii, the costumes add Stats to you me such as Speed and Power that will applay to your mii in events. I’ve been having soo much fun playing this alone and can’t wait to play with frinds it has a great amount of content, this was a excellent purchase. Highly recomend for your self or family. Seeing Dr. Eggman do the rhythmic ribbon alone will justify buying this game 15 of 19 people found the following review helpful Just as fun as the previous Mario & sonic game, = Fun: This review is from: Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games (Video Game) I love this game. You can have up to 4 players or play with the computer. These are the games you can play on it: This really is great and fun game for the whole family. My kids love competing with each other. This one has more games that they like on it. |
