IGN Reviews MySims Party

IGN posted its review for MySims Party today giving it a 6/10 or "Passable". This is the lowest MySims game rating thus far. Daemon Hatfield has this to say

What is here is enough to be a fun little mini-game collection (again, for kids). In our review for MySims Kingdom last year we wrote that Electronic Arts could be doing much more with this franchise. That is still the case.

In a Nutshell it is a decent Mini-game collection for kids, similar to Mario Party or Carnival Games.

IGN MySims Party Impressions

IGN got a look at MySims Party at this years CES. And they today have published their preview of the game

"The Wii version of the title includes 50 and the DS 40 mini-games, all of them hosted by a unique MySims character. The console build supports four-player matches and all of the MySims avatars show different attributes that can be used in battle. For instance, some might be speedier than others. More might be quicker on the draw, and so forth. It's possible to play through all of the games consecutively or alternatively compete in a themed festival that encapsulates a handful of minis. "
