GamerPops.com: There are plenty of minigame collections on the Wii, but there are few quite as good as Rio. With a nice mix of fun minigames, several different playmodes, and production values that capture the color and liveliness of the movie, Rio is a winner without even factoring in the $30 price point. Buy with confidence, and enjoy with your family.

Highlights:
- Regardless of which system you play it on, Rio is an excellent party game.
- The minigames are easy enough for players of all ages, and they are well explained before each challenge.
- The game’s E10+ rating doesn’t really seem to be based on content, more so the light comic violence in several of the minigames, so parents can rest assured that this is a good selection for all ages.
|
|
Lowlights:
- The biggest drawback from the family perspective is that, like any movie tie-in game, there could be a fairly limited timespan for Rio. It may be a lot of fun now, but with many other movie related games coming out in the next couple of months, there’s always the danger this one could be quickly brushed aside.
