TwinfiniteDevoun EdwardsMay 20145/5We've had two Sportsfriends sessions at the House of Edwards, and I get texts daily about when we are going to play it again. Each game in the Sporstfriends collection brings something enjoyable to the couch co-op experience. All the games are tight, polished, and aesthetically beautiful, making Sportsfriends the quintessential party game for all PlayStation platform owners.

EurogamerMartin RobinsonMay 20149/10To complain about that would be missing the point, though. Sportsfriends is a celebration of the social side of games, their ability to bring a room together in one loud, raucous moment and how they're so much more fun when enjoyed with company. Alongside like-minded titles such as Towerfall and Nidhogg, this compilation is a pleasant reminder of that power - and, just like its companions, Sportsfriends represents video games at their very, very best.

PolygonMegan FarokhmaneshMay 20149/10Sportsfriends hardly feels like a video game, and that's what makes it so special. It's an experience that anyone can enjoy, regardless of their gaming experience, totally irrespective of their specialty at sports or team-based games.

Game RantAnthony TaorminaMay 20143.5/5 stars[T]hose who can get three or more friends together for a lengthy Sportsfriends play session will come away feeling like they did back when local multiplayer was an endless addiction fueled by caffeine and heated arguments. Some of the games are more successful in delivering that feeling, or in generating excitement, than others, but as a whole the collection works more often than not. Get a group of friends together – even those who might not be particularly adept at video games – and you'll likely have a good time.
