Review: No matter if it?s bowling in reality or virtually I just can?t help but sing ?Score Tonight? from Grease 2. (tease away I have no shame)
Honestly I love to bowl, it?s such a Joe six pack type of sport but I love it. Sadly I haven?t been able to bowl in reality for some time (injuries and all) so my rolling has to be all digital baby which the Wii has been phenomenal for.
Now it?s the time to roll some balls on the DS.
Despite not having stylus functions this is a fun little title to play when you just want to chill out or when you are stuck waiting around. It?s easy to pick up and quick to master.
The perfect little time waster (I mean that in a good way).
