The Story
First they invaded your world and, now your TV. The Rabbids have taken over almost every channel you can imagine, from music to movies, from wrestling to reality TV - even TV ads. In Story Mode, players play through a week of television, with each day bringing new wacky challenges of skill and insane movements in a compilation of mini-games. With up to eight players in turn-based mode and four players simultaneously, get ready for some serious insanity as you and all your friends help the Rabbids destroy all our daily viewing and drive Rayman crazy in the process.

Put Your Wii Balance Board to Use
Although 100% playable with just the Wii Remote and Nunchuck control configuration, Rayman Raving Rabbids TV Party is optimized in part to be used with the Wii Balance Board as well. In fact, nearly 40% of the game's 65+ mini-games incorporate support for the Wii Balance Board, with the majority of these when played at harder difficulty values, incorporating all three controllers simultaneously. Use of the Wii Balance Board in-game is turn-based, but this fun, new application for Nintendo's new peripheral for the Wii ensures that all your TV Party's will be a full body experience.

Just a few of the mini-games in Rayman Raving Rabbids TV Party that take advantage of the Wii Balance Board are: 'Beestie Boarding', a wild winter ride down obstacle filled slopes astride an inverted wildebeest, and 'Garden of Weeden', where you use the Balance Board to pour weed killer on overgrown vegetation. Both utilize pressure applied to the Balance Board's four main directions for the desired effect.

Key Game Features:

Unique Use of the Wii Balance Board - Play loads of exciting new games with the new Wii Balance Board and experience the first game in the world that you can play with your rear end.
New Wacky Games - Play 65+ brand-new mini and not so mini-games that spoof popular culture, from TV series to TV classics, not to mention a whole lot of insane ads thrown in for good mention.
All-New Party Mode - Play co-op or battle your friends simultaneously with up to four players, or go crazy with up to eight players in party mode. You can even sabotage your friends while they are playing.
Unique Use of the Wii Remote - Discover new and innovative ways to play with eight types of gameplay, including shaking, precision, dexterity and balance.
Shake that Rabbid - Use the Wii Remote and Wii Balance Board to dance and wiggle your booty.
Customize your bunny - Pimp your bunny out, take his photo and send it to your friends online.

Double Your Fun in Party Mode
Like many Wii games with a heavy mini-game component, Rayman Raving Rabbids TV Party comes with built-in four player multiplayer support, but TV Party takes this common feature a few steps further. In addition to a full simultaneous four-player co-op and battle mode it also features an all-new, powerfully fun, party mode. Capable of supporting up to eight players in local play through a turn-based system and allowing for players with remotes, waiting their turn on the sidelines to interfere in the progress of the current player, it opens a whole new layer of chaos to the already chaotic world of Rayman Raving Rabbids.

- Looking for motivation to get off the couch and move!? Look no more . . . .
I don't even know where to begin with the review of this game. I am not an avid gamer. I am a 37 year old woman who loves to have fun. I took this game to a New Year's Eve party at my friends' house so that her 10 year old and her friends could play. They each got one turn before the adults took over. It was so much fun. We played mostly in party mode with four people. It was a blast. I wish we had footage of us dancing to Le Freak and the Austin Powers Theme! The only complaint I have isn't with the game, but with the room. We needed a little more room for the sensor to read all of our movements. The people in the middle performed better because of their location to the sensor bar (that's what I'm claiming anyway, because I came in 3rd or 4th many times and I was on the end!) If you are on the fence, jump over. Get this game. You and your kids will LOVE it. You don't need the balance board to enjoy the game, but it definitely adds a level of gut busting fun!

- Excellent game for the target audience
If you are a serious gamer looking for a challenge, move on. You will complete all levels in this game in one afternoon and be terribly disappointed. If, however, you have a sense of humor and are in a family or party setting with mixed casual gamers and novices, you will find this an entertaining ice breaker that will get everyone up and moving.

We were happy to have this game at our house over the holidays. It kept our college-aged daughter entertained over many hour-long sessions of play, and there's still more for her to do. She enjoyed the music selections in the dance segments and got a kick out of shooting chickens and riding the slalom on her rump using the balance board. Her dad and I even had fun joining in a few times and did well enough to avoid total frustration - and for me, that's no easy feat! For that alone it deserves high marks; it can be so difficult to find a game where all ages and skill levels can enjoy it right out of the box.

I'd recommend this game highly to family and friends who are looking for something different and entertaining to do with their WII and get a little bit of exercise along the way, but NOT to serious gamers seeking extreme challenges that require hours of play to figure out and conquer. If you are the right audience, you will find this game just challenging enough to have fun and enjoy a few laughs and surprises along the way.

- A game everyone will try- some controls can be hard
For starters this would be closer to a 5 star game if we hadn't already had a Glitch that crashed a game for us. And looking at past reviews it seems we are not alone in game glitches.
It is fun, and addicting.
I think people can find a little bit of everything in the mini-gmaes here.
A shooting gallery type game- dancing- driving, fighting, riding ECT....
My 8 year old has some problems with the driving game but he is slowly getting the hang of it- The lotto games drives me crazy.. It is a game that all of us have tried and enjoyed- ages 6 (probably a bit too hard for her right now) , 8 Mom and Dad!

- Awesome game!
This game is awesome in so many ways. I brought this game to a New Year's Eve party and we played for hours! Unlike many multi-games, we stumbled on no lame games yet. The graphics are great, very lush and creative. Also makes good use of the balance board.

- Fun for Adults and Teens
I've played all 3 Rabbids games. I like the 1st game, the 2nd isn't as great but this 3rd game (Raving Rabbids TV Party) brings back all the silly fun. You will use your Balance Board in ways you never thought that you would! We laughed so much the first night we played it I lost my voice. I highly recommend.
