Swim fast, eat anything smaller than you and avoid larger fish who want you for lunch. "With three different multiplayer modes, high-def graphics and some new moves that really lend themselves to a joystick controller, the new sequel is pretty perfectly suited to Xbox." In Feeding Frenzy 2: Shipwreck Showdown, you're a little fish in a big sea, and must gobble your way up the food chain to solve an underwater mystery. "Feeding Frenzy 2 really improves on the original game in virtually every way, as far as XBLA is concerned," said Greg Canessa, VP of video game platforms at PopCap. Available now for 800 Microsoft Points ($8.00), Feeding Frenzy 2 joins five other PopCap titles already on XBLA, including Zuma, Heavy Weapon and the original Feeding Frenzy. Featuring a wealth of optimizations exclusively for Xbox LIVE, the XBLA version of Feeding Frenzy 2 includes high-definition graphics, achievements and leaderboards, and several all-new multiplayer modes.
POPCAP FEEDING FRENZY 2 DOWNLOAD
While the story may not keep you occupied for as long as you could hope, the party games should last a bit longer - and for around £6.80, it comes highly recommended.PopCap Games Inc., the leading developer and publisher of casual video games, announced that beginning today its popular action game Feeding Frenzy 2: Shipwreck Showdown is available for download via the Xbox Live Arcade (XBLA) online service of Microsoft's Xbox 360 video game console. At the very least, some sort of fact book on the species you come across, that unlocked as you progressed through the game would have made for some interesting reading.īut despite that minor short fall, there's very little else wrong with Feeding Frenzy 2. While, after finishing a level, you'll be presented with a fun fact about all things fishy, it would have been nice to have unlocked some videos of the fish you're playing with, in real life, almost documentary style.

If you fancy a more regimented challenge, the Frenzyfest mode lets you take things a bit more seriously, by setting you a series of party games to complete, and awarding everyone third, second, and first place trophies after each game - which it then keeps a track of from session to session, so you'll always be able to see your lifetime performance.īut while it's definitely a fun game, it is a bit disappointing that Feeding Frenzy 2 doesn't expand a bit more on the educational side.

There's also a great variety of multiplayer modes on offer. That unusually small shark has the right idea. It's a great idea, and one that makes this game great if you've got a younger player you want to play along with - they can happily drive their fish head first into a bigger fish's mouth, without having to worry about losing any lives. While it doesn't seem to affect which fish you'll be presented with on the levels, it does remove a lot of the pressure, by giving you unlimited lives, and making it so your bar doesn't reset every time you lose a life. If you should happen to stray into a larger fish on your travels, it'll gobble you up without a second thought, and, in the main story mode, not only will you lose a life, but your progress towards filling the next section of bar will also be reset.īut if you think that sounds a bit too unforgiving for a game from PopCap - the people who bought us the excellent Peggle, Plants vs Zombies, and Zuma - you'd be right, as for those of you who find it a bit tricky, or for the younger players amongst us, they've included a story "lite" mode. However, it's not as simple as it all sounds. When you fill up a section, you'll grow in size, and upon filling the third, you'll have finished the level. The whole point of each level is to eat as many fish as possible, until you fill up a bar at the top left of the screen, which is divided into three sections. The more fish you swallow, the bigger you'll grow, and in turn, you'll soon find yourself with less predators, and more potential fodder, as the fish that were once eyeing you up soon do everything they can to avoid you.
