Wii Bowling video and real fun

Is it true that sports games have to look realistic to be fun? Well, the Mii avatars don’t look realistic, so Wii Bowling is bound to suck, right? Right?

Well, we think that sports games don’t always have to be realistic. In fact, some sports games defy physics, and they’re a lot of fun to play (in the previous article about Wii Bowling, Gryff33 mentioned the Tony Hawk series as an example). And in some games, like Wii Sports’ Bowling, the avatars don’t even need to look real, but it looks like a great game to play when you’re by yourself, with your friends, or even with your mom (my mom can beat your mom).

Check out this video where grown men have fun with the Wii Remote (Wiimote). Yeah, we wish we had that huge TV too, but even with a small TV, the game might be better than doling out hard-earned dough just to rent bowling shoes, wait for a lane, and suffer through stale pizza and beer (uh, Mom, if you’re reading this, I meant rootbeer).

Now we can finally fulfill our fantasy of bowling in just our underwear (Mom, don’t ask; it’s a QJ thing).
