Apparently this game is on sale for $29.99 at Best Buy this week.
I own both RRR1 and 2 and I noticed that most review sites give the second game a lower score than the first. The only thing I can figure is that the people who do these reviews are playing single player and not with a group.
If you play solo or double the game probably isn't very good for you. But in my opinion it is the best party game by far for the Wii. If you didn't play the first game it is a minigame format but mostly single player and we would just pass the remote around for each new game. RRR2 has dozens of minigames but they are all for up to 4 players simultaneously in a competiton style. On New Years Eve we would have 4 playing and about 20 watching and everybody was laughing hysterically. The best thing I can compare it to is 4 player double tennis on Wii sports. The controls are simple enough that anybody can sit down and start playing right away but there is enough strategy that it gets really competitive.
As an example of some of the games there is bumper cars on a rooftop where you try and knock the others off the building, 2 v. 2 beach volleyball, bicycle racing where you are teams and one person on each team pedals while the other steers. There seemed to be about 45 different minigames.
Anyway, highly recommended if you are looking for a good multiplayer party game. I wouldn't recommend it as a solo game as I think it would be kind of boring but at $30 I think it paid for itself in one night.
