If you haven't had the chance to experience Peggle yet, now's the time. After a few iterations on the PC and DS, Peggle is on Xbox Live Arcade and it's a great addition. This game is simple, drop a ball into a level filled with (mostly) blue and orange pegs, with the goal to clear all the orange pegs within 10 balls. Sounds easy right? It is easy in concept, which makes it great for everyone. As you progress to more difficult levels, it definitely takes some thought and planning to get through. If you have an extra $10 around and are in the need for a quality, casual experience then download Peggle.

Peggle is a product of PopCap Games that has invaded every aspect of gaming. Peggle is so popular that there is even a version for World of Warcraft where you can play in-game.

Peggle is a very simple yet addictive game. You shoot a metal ball into a field of "peggles" (blocks that allow the metal ball to bounce around). Each peggle you hit is removed from the game board when the metal ball is out of play. The goal is to remove all orange peggles from the field of play before you run out of metal balls.

While the concept seems like it's been done a hundred times before, PopCap does it right so that people come back to the game. It shines as a casual game where not a lot of thought is needed if you just want to relieve some stress after work. The achievements for xbox live make it a more complicated, thoughtful game as they require you to clear ALL of the peggles from the field, not just the orange ones. Finally, the multiplayer brings people together for silly, fun competition in either a head-on duel or a "peggle party" where you try to beat other player's scores.

Peggle is worth the $10 due to the amount of time that can be lost on it. It's one of those game where you will turn it on and then wonder where four hours went.
