Women's Volleyball Championship features six venues from around the world. It's as fast-paced and grueling as the real thing, and perfectly captures the passion and excitement of the sport. Play as one of twelve countries battling their way to the top of the ranks, or create your own team of pros to take on the rest. A key feature in Women's Volleyball is players get a chance to create and train their own team. If players want their volleyball players to have certain qualities, this game allows them to customize their players to their liking. Another feature of the game is that the volleyball players are affected by real life conditions like exhaustion and dominant hand, adding an unprecedented level of realism to the game.

Overall, the game seems to exhibit a good simulation of a volleyball game, with an emphasis on many different statistics, and real-life strategies.

Unfortunately, this niche sport has spawned a niche game that lacks the more obvious draw of the beach variant, and will interest only the hardest hardcore fans. [Nov 2008, p.83]

Women’s Volleyball Championship doesn’t do anything right. It does, however, fail miserably in a variety of different areas, and remains mediocre in the aspects where it’s not a total failure.

I can understand trying to do a budget version of volleyball, but when 8-bit versions of the sport actually offer more fun (and maybe even look better), there's quite literally zero reason to take a look at the game.

It is a great thing to bring light to an under promoted sport such as women's volleyball, but in this case it's like Ronald McDonald promoting P.E.T.A. It doesn't really help. So whatever you do, DO NOT BUY THIS GAME.

Women's Volleyball Championship gets a 1.9 for (1) not crashing, (2) loading properly, and (3) having a frame rate that was, while far from praiseworthy, tolerable. Sort of.
