Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games

You would think Sonic and Mario teaming up would lead to harmonious video game bliss. Mario could help Sonic be a better game, Sonic could help Mario be a cooler mascot, and they could commiserate about all their friends who are riding their coattails to fame. Instead, we get minigames with an Olympic theme.This game wouldn't be so bad if the controls worked better. The Wii has never been completely responsive, especially when it comes to these mingame compilations, but I was having more trouble than ever with London Games. Trying to perform tricks while jumping on a trampoline devolved into me wildly gesticulating in hopes of gaining some points, and badminton, despite being a game more reliant on timing, saw me waving my arms like I was trying to get my TV's attention every time the shuttlecock got close to my character.There are a few games that stood out though, specifically the ones reliant on rhythm, like synchronized swimming and rhythmic ribbon. Those require infrequent jostles of the Wii remote in time with music, and those games work well.Along with the standard Olympic games, there are also Dream Events, which are similar to the normal events, but are set in the abstract worlds of Sonic and Mario.

Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games Review

Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games marks the third time that heroes Mario and Sonic have squared off against one another and their respective friends and foes in a series of Olympic sporting events. At one point, such a pairing would have been unfathomable, but now, no one even blinks. Sega's latest outing would have benefitted from a few more surprises, but it's quite enjoyable and packed with content. There are a total of 31 activities, some of which are truly substantial. Twenty-one of the events consist of the standard athletic disciplines, though a handful of them are sufficiently similar that it feels like cheating to count them separately. Hurdles aren't that much different from the 100-meter dash, except for the fact that your character must periodically jump. The remaining 10 events are more distinct dream sequences and unlike any that you might see on ESPN. Characters run along clouds, ride giant whirling discs through a valley ripped out of Sonic Adventure, soar through the clouds toward a gargantuan piranha plant in a scene that wouldn't be out of place in Super Mario Galaxy, race ahead of a wagon carrying Yoshi eggs, and so forth.

Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympics

Mario and Sonic made a few waves since they teamed up together – for the first time in gaming history – for an Olympic effort produced by Sega for the Wii four years ago. It wasn't bad, but left a little bit to be desired. Fortunately, we were happily fulfilled by their return in the Winter Olympic Games two years later, mainly due to the inclusion of hockey and various racing events. Now we're back to summer with Mario and Sonic At the London 2012 Olympic Games, and...it's almost like something with seasons with these guys, because this one comes up a little bit short. You'll choose from various characters throughout both Mario and Sonic's universe, including familiar villains, heroes, and the occasional oddballs. It's a decent variety of characters, though some fan favorites may be missing. From there, you'll make your way through jolly, old London, completing mini-games and taking part in traditional Olympic competitions, either alone or with friends. These include hurdles, soccer, and various others. By completing these events and meeting certain criteria (relax, the game isn't difficult), you'll earn virtual achievements by way of stickers, which you can then collect in a book.

Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games Review

The cross-over rivalry that no one ever thought would happen is happening for a fourth time. They first met up and competed against one another in 2007's Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games. After that they fought it out on the battlefields of 2008's Super Smash Bros. Brawl, then hit the slopes for 2009's Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games. Now Nintendo and Sega's heaviest hitters are once again going head-to-head on Wii -- and this cross-over's feeling a little weary. The novelty factor of seeing Mario and Sonic in the same game has certainly worn off by this point. This gives Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games a bit less momentum to build on than four years ago, when these characters had not yet met. Even more unfortunately, the Olympics side of this equation is waning too. We've come full circle and returned to the Summer games again, meaning almost all of the sporting events featured in this release are the same ones we first saw in Mario and Sonic's first meeting. It's all feeling a little too familiar here. So where does that leave us? London. The one stand-out new element in this third Olympic outing is the setting itself.

Mario and Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games (Preview)

It might not be the most critically acclaimed series out there, but there's something about Mario and Sonic's collection of sports-themed minigames that has proved extremely popular--19 million copies to date popular, in fact. And so the duo is making its way back onto the Wii with the backing of the London 2012 Olympics this time. Those who are worried that the game will get too serious have little to fear, though. Alongside traditional Olympic sports like the triple jump and circuit racing will be Dream Games, which have you riding your way to victory on a hovering discus or knocking out your opponents on bouncing clouds. Whichever sport you play, one thing is guaranteed: You'll look incredibly silly as you do so. Mario and Sonic 2012 features a number of new events, and we've laid our hands on five of them. The most humorous of these is the equestrian event, where you have to ride a horse over a number of different jumps and around obstacles. You move the horse by shaking the Wii Remote, which the game encourages you to hold out in front of you like you're holding onto a set of reins. Tilting it turns the horse, while the A button makes it jump.
