4.0 out of 5 stars Great family or party game, November 14, 2002

Great game for groups of 2-4 players. I play this one with my kids (age 7 and 9) a lot - and they play it with their friends. Everytime we play we end up either laughing with each other or yelling at each other (in a loving way)!

It actually is a collection of about 30 futuristic arena games - so it has a lot of replay value. There is no bad language or sexual innuendos, and the violence is "mild" (comical). So it's okay for young children.

Some of the magazines (and users) have given it negative reviews, mostly because it doesn't fully use the Xbox console's graphical capabilities.

If you like to spend time with friends/family playing on your Xbox, then this is a great game for your collection. If you mostly play games alone and/or only like games that leverage the Xbox capabilities to the max, then you'll be disappointed with this one.

4.0 out of 5 stars A great addition to the game library., November 28, 2002

This review is from: Fuzion Frenzy (Video Game)

Fusion Frenzy was one of the first games to come out on Xbox, and it is still a great game to have around. It is a collection of mini-games based on individual or (on occasion) team competition. Each mini-game has a different objective and lasts on the order of a minute. You score points by having a strong finish in the mini-games, which ultimately may lead to an overall win.

Fusion Frenzy contains 45 mini-games; and, although many of them are just different variations of a theme, there is enough variety to give the game plenty of play value. Levels include things like collecting orbs, knocking pucks on ice, human cage sumo matches, smashing bugs, jumping or ducking over obstacles, etc.

This game is great to bring out during parties or when company is over (such as after the Thanksgiving meal). While the game can only accommodate a maximum of four players, I have played with as much as eight by rotating controllers. The mini-games move along fast enough that no has a chance to get board.

Of course, this game is not for everyone. If you are a hard-core gamer who spends more time with your Xbox than sleeping and attending school combined (or if you were thinking about purchasing this as a gift for said gamer), this probable isn't the game for you. But if your video games are more for entertainment, rather than a way of life, of if you have a household of kids who want to have light-hearted fun, Fusion Frenzy is a good bet.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun for kids, great set of games, simple and refreshing!, October 9, 2001

This review is from: Fuzion Frenzy (Video Game)

I enjoyed this game. It was cute, it has basically a couple dozen or so games all in one. There are a bunch of different littler games which one or more players could compete at a different goal. You switch between the various games and compete to get the most points. This is a wonderful game for kids and lots of fun to play with a bunch of friends. This reminded me of the simplicity of the early videogames like pacman and pong, lots of fun without a ton of added complexity and a huge ramp up time to learn bizarre controls. The goals are varied, new and interesting and the settings are cool and imaginative. I highly recommend it.
