This is an excerpt from the Review of the Nintendo Wii game Winter Sports: The Ultimate Challenge 2008

In a sea of Wii shovelware, Wii Winter Sports isn’t the worst choice you could make. Conspiracy apparently picked this one up for cheap, but for fans of downhill skiing and a handful of other Olympic events, “The Ultimate Challenge 2008” will satisfy for at least long enough to warrant a rental. The control works for the most part (aside from a pretty unsatisfying curling experience), but it’s never more than a quick arcade-inspired mini-game the likes of Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games. The graphics aren’t nearly as polished as official screens would have you believe, and the game – while better than every other Conspiracy effort thus far – grows dull fast. Unless you can find this one extremely cheap, skip it.
