User Ratings and Reviews
3 Stars Fun game, but frustrating controls.
The game is fun. Some of the activities have controls that aren’t very responsive, such as BMX bike and in-line skating, making the games frustrating. Base jumping, kite surfing, jump rope and rock climbing are very fun, and seem to handle well.
Some nice features from Outdoor Challenge were removed from this game. Active points are not available in this new version. When completing personalized tournaments, the minimal passing scores cannot be adjusted either. This means that you may be playing the same event multiple times before you can compete in the next event. This becomes frustrating, when coupled with the bad controls for some events.
Overall, the game is fun, but the original Outdoor Challenge has superior controls and features.
5 Stars Doesn’t include the mat
We already own Active Life: Outdoor Challenge and it is a favorite in our house all the way down to my 3-year old daughter. Because of the fun we’ve had with Outdoor Challenge, I’m interested in Extreme Challenge as well. There are two versions of this for sale. Be sure you choose the right one for you as this one does not include the mat, which is why is costs less. I wanted to mention it since I didn’t see that called out in Amazon’s listing. I think this Active Life line will have more great titles to come.
