 Far cry from the original version March 5, 2008
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 February 9, 2008
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 October 13, 2007
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!!! August 24, 2007
IF YOU ARE BUYING THIS GAME BECAUSE YOU THINK YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE PLAYING WITH OTHERS ONLINE YOU ARE SADLY MISTAKEN!!!Almost no one else goes online to play this game. don't buy.
Not that great July 24, 2007
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..
