Most of the games in this collection came out of an annual experimental multiplayer game design showcase. J.S. Joust is one of the all-time greatest digital party games. The other three, for better and worse, feel like they came out of an experimental multiplayer game design showcase.

This game just feels soulless imo. This is like if you made a game from just reading game design books but never having actually played a game in your life. Everything is proper but man, there is literally no soul or fun in this. The corporate artstyle doesn`t help

I dont wanna sound rude but this game triggers me which doesn`t happen alot.

"Bland Sports Minigames"

Unfun, sloppy, and poor controls describe my experience with "Sportsfriends", a game that has sat in my PS Plus catalog for the better part of seven years before I decided to boot it up. I expected something really simple after seeing the trailers for it, but I did not expect a game that was this shoddily made. The collection of minigames on display for this one was incredulously bad, and my co-op partner and I were frustrated throughout the entire experience. I can say for a fact that this is one of the worst sports co-op games I have ever played nor imagine myself playing. It felt like four unfinished Atari games with slightly better graphics shoved into a small compilation. I do Not Recommend this one to anyone, since it's just not very fun, polished, or interesting.

Final Verdict: 1/10 (Terrible)
