I think this was the best platform game i've ever seen. i would highly recommend this to anyone who love the revised atari classics like frogger centipede and pac-man. this is a game for anyone who oved the first the graphics get a little better and there are lots more multi-player modes in this sequel. Definitely pick this one up at Amazon.com -Tom

Fantastic!

I loved this version better than the Frogger 1 version. I liked the levels of this game much better. It was easy to follow along with and I end up playing for more hours than I have available! It's not something easy to get away from, so do this one when you've got some time. This is a great game! I'd recommend it to anyone!

Best frogger ever!

I was a kidback in 1985 when this game debuted.I never got to play it on atari untill years later when it hit the pc as a 3d version frogger!Now i own the new one and it is amazingly cool.The graphics are better,sound isbetter,gaming is better!This game has people playing it everywhere and it's great.I love the arcade feature built in which has some super retro levels from the 85 frogger mixed in with 2000 3d graphics,a great feature to the frogger lovers everywhere.As long as frogger is out i'm in the mood for a game.Frogger is alive and croakin!

I really liked the first one. This one is a bit boring, as there isn't that much different to it. the camera is very jerky and it is often hard to see what is ahead which means you die quite alot which is unfair. I don't mind dying if it's my fault, but not when you can't see what's going on. I was expecting alot more from the multiplayer, but it's not that great - gets boring after an hour.

Could have been better

If you loved the first game, this sequel will be somewhat of a disappointment. It is simply not as much fun as it could have been.

C'est la vie! You gain some. You lose some.

This is "Volume 2" of the beloved arcade game FROGGER. All and all, it is a good+ (pronounced "good-plus") game. It could be rated "great" by some group of players. Here are some insight:

1) Playability: It is easier to play and win in this game than in the first one. So, that is a plus for some players, and perhaps at the same time, a minus for some others. The game consists of 10 chapters. The same strategy (simple algorithm) can be used throughout the game (somebody sighs: "boring"?) The players will need to win in the earlier chapters to move forward. In each chapter, the mission is to save 5 baby frogs. Check points (after saving each baby) are available in each chapter. Again, this feature may have made the game less challenging to some players.

2) Graphics: This is probably a strong point of this version as compared to the previous one. Rich environments in different chapters. For this feature only, in my opinion, the game should deserve a 5-STAR. Some chapters may be scary to young kids (Well, they are not supposed to play games too much, anyway.)

Well, here comes the moment of truth. If this game is rated 5-star then it would not be fair, in comparison with FROGGER. However, if it is given too low a rating, it is not fair, either. After all, it is a good+ game. So, 4-STAR then! (ribbit!)

Good, but could've been better.

I found this game as a dissapointment, considering the fact that the Frogger series is so highly acclaimed.

The gameplay was so-so. The most annoying part about the whole Frogger series is that there is no way to attack, or prevent yourself from dying when you touch the tiniest part of a beetle, ant, etc. Yet on the bright side, the setting is incredible. The plot is off the mark. Rescuing pesky frog babies from a stupid crocodile who can't trap a frog? Not right. This area of the game could've been largely improved by Hasbro Interactive.

The sound is another positive thing(out of the few in the game). It adds largely to the feel of this game. I warn you, it can get very annoying.

The graphics are exceptional. You can see everything vividly, and that is a must. Unfortunately, you can't change the view(except for rotating)and that could be very unpleasent when you can't see this or that.

The controls are very sloppy. Sometimes you do different things than you told the controller to do(I've tried three different controllers, it isn't the controller, thank you). Also, the controls could be more varied, to give Frogger something more to do than hop and croak.

Frogger 2 is worth your money, but not much more.

Fun and humorous

I stayed away from the first Frogger release, only because I was never a fan of the arcade version and I had read horrible magazine reviews about it. When Frogger 2 came out, I read reviews stating that THIS is what the first Frogger SHOULD have been. So I gave it a shot, and we loved it right away.

The graphics/playfields are entertaining and FUNNY in some spots. The control works quite nicely (a problem in the first game, I understand). And the multi-player option is GREAT! Jumping on your friend to slow him down, while making that "SPLAAAT!" sound never gets old.

The 1-player mode is also fun and challenging. This is definitely a game where patience is a virtue--it pays to study the mechanics of the various obstacles before you make your move!

Very fun, cute, and colorful--I think most people would be happy with this game.

iT'S OK IF YOU LIKE EASY GAMES

IT'S FUN YET EASY. THE ENEMIES BITE. THERE ARE NO REAL DIFFICULT ELEMENTS TO THE GAME. THE GRAFICS ARE GOOD AND THE MULTIPLAYER VERSION IS COOL. DEPENDING ON IF YOUR A SERIOUS GAMER OR NOT IS IF YOU SHOULD GET IT

Classic with a twist

Frogger2:Swampy's Revenge is good clean fun. I remember playing Frogger in mall arcades 15-20 years ago. It's a great way to take a break from the day. Each adventure you complete gives you a 'reward'. Most of the rewards are more adventures (twists on the classic arcade game) to complete. I'm still working on the diffucult level which counts down time while you try to complete the same adventures as in the previous two levels. This is a little challenging. I highly recommend this to everyone, especially those who remember the arcade game. We've come a long way since those days.
