Buy Fuzion Frenzy 1

The "gameshow host" in this game is possibly the most annoying computer generated character since Jar Jar Binks.

This game is actually pretty fun for about 2 hours.

One good thing about it- you can earn a lot of easy gamerscore points by playing through with each of the different characters. That's really the only good thing about it.

Good Multiplayer Fun

This is one of the best Multiplayer mini games available on the Xbox 360. That's not saying much though... I rented this game the other day and the single player is disappointing. The best part about this game would have to be the 4 player multiplayer option it has. It's a fun party game if you have a few friends over. Now that it's down to $20, it's not a bad pickup if you're looking for some fun.

Not bad...

Fuzion Freny 2 is a pretty good game...its not going to blow you away with its originality...but its a decent party game to play with your friends and/or family. Most of the games are fun, though a few can be difficult at times. But with around 40 minigames to choose from, you should be having fun with this one for a while!!

No better than part 1

I liked FF 1 better. I guess the sequel didn't outdo it. If you want it, get it used/discounted.

Far cry from the original version

My friends and I have been big Fuzion Frenzy fans for years. We'd get together and spend hours playing the mini games. They were fun, quick to start and play, and we got a big kick out of the cheesy announcer with his strained, cracked voice screaming out "Fuzion Frenzy!". Yes, we're a silly bunch.

Anyway, my original Xbox died a couple of months ago; the DVD drive stopped reading. I was looking at close to $80 for a replacement (unit + shipping) so I decided to just upgrade to a Xbox 360, and of course buy the sequel to our favorite game, Fuzion Frenzy 2.

I'll say right now, this game, aside from the fact that you're playing mini games, is nothing like the original. The game is non-play animation heavy (lots of long useless segue animations), the structure of the gameplay is different, and there's no Fuzion Frenzy round! To my friends and I, that was the best part of the game! We'd have a blast gathering orbs (from the game field or by stealing them from each other) and avoiding each other and the play field hazards.

Though I expected the mini games to be different in this release, I didn't expect them to be quite so varied in visual and play complexity. Some are very busy visually and require use of both thumbsticks and buttons, where others are visually boring and require button use only. In some ways this parallels the original version, however the levels were never so busy as to detract attention from what you were doing as they are in Fuzion Frenzy 2.

To give an idea of loss of game play in Fuzion Frenzy 2, my friends and I would usually play a 6-stage set of mini games inside a half hour. However, in Fuzion Frenzy 2 we gave up one game into the second round of mini games after 45 minutes. Yes, that much useless animation was added between mini games.

What used to be a fun, mindless party game has now become a more involved, needlessly bloated game that is sure to cause you and your friends to become disinterested in playing it as the game sluggishly moves from one mini game to the next. Aside from better graphics, they really missed the point with this sequel. I definitely did not get my money's worth with this purchase.

Sweet

The game is a lot better the last generation. The graphics are more detailed, the minigames are mixed with the old and the new. Overall its a fun party game.

Really only one reason

there is really only one reason you should buy this game. Easy achievement points. sure we all remember the first one but the controls are nowhere near as precise as they should be on half the games, the announcer is annoying as hell and many of the games just dont give you that feeling of reward. but honestly, given a few hours and someone else over xbox live you can unlock all 1000 pts. there are only 14 achievements.

HORRIBLE DON'T BUY!!!

I feel that the first Fuzion Frenzy game was fun but with this one has only a couple games that are fun and the guys voice is very annoying. I bought it and have not had the urge to play it again...Do not recommend purchasing waste of money..

Utterly disappointing:(

Im sure this game was developed by a totaly diferent team than the first one, Makes me sad to think of how such a great game as the fist one was stained with something like this.

First of all, the game is unresponsive, this being one of the key factors that made FF1 so good. Second, the host shoots out random phrases or stupid things like "was that a lot of damage player one", by the way, he has a very limited selection of stupid phrases so sometimes you get the same phrase 3 or 4 times back to back. The menus interaction is really slow(contrary to the theme of the game) and uncomfortable...

The games are uncreative, and the ones that got copied from FF1 were "updated" and now suck. twisted system has an extremely uncomfortable camera angle and different timing so you get what I mean.

Not 1 good game in the 40+

Please don't buy this, Im sad I paid these people to ruin such a good game, dont do the same...

Utterly disappointing:(
