The game's lack creativity, the presentation is terrible, and some of the features never work properly which makes Fuzion Frenzy 2 hardly worth recommending to anyone.
-
Fuzion Frenzy 2 was never asked for and if there’s ever plans for a third edition the game will need a complete gutting before it can be stitched into something that people will want to play.
-
Hardcore GamerParty games are supposed to contain playable sequences that are instantly accessible, engaging, and fun. In Fuzion Frenzy 2, there are precious few that fit that bill. [Apr 2007, p.56]
-
Decent mini-games can only go so far to fix a broken main game, terrible art design, and voice acting that even a patient fan of low-quality acting can't handle.

Official Xbox MagazineCould the Xbox 360 use a fun and frantic throwback partier? Sure. But this mess isn't it. [Mar 2007, p.82]
-
I honestly think Fuzion Frenzy 2 would be better served over the Xbox Live Marketplace as an Arcade title, then a full disc release.
-
Trust us. Cheaper, deeper stuff than this can be bought on Xbox Live Arcade. Unless you're truly desperate for an old-school party game experience, or you plan to be so drunk that anything will amuse you, we suggest you save your money for something else.
-
Fans of the original Fuzion Frenzy and other party games may want to give this a rent. Everyone else will probably take part in a contest to see who can return it to the game store the fastest.
-
The best thing about Fuzion Frenzy 2 is that it’s an easy 1,000 achievement points (there are only 16 different tasks, and most of those are to play through a tournament with each player).
-
360 Gamer Magazine UKSadly, Fuzion Frenzy 2 gets so carried away with enhancements and tricks, that it loses sight of what made the original work in the first place. A real waste. [Issue #23, p.71]
-
Electronic Gaming MonthlyYou absolutely need more than one (perhaps two) friends to get past the game's flaws: bland menus, a ridiculously annoying announcer, and less than 50 minigames that get old fast. [Mar 2007, p.88]
-
Fuzion Frenzy 2 is intolerable in single player and is okay in multiplayer, even at a budget price the game doesn't come recommended.
-
It's a sub-par offering in almost every respect, chock full of insipid, charmless, half-baked zero-fun games that would embarrass a start-up indie studio.
-
Quite simply, it’s a very early contender for worst game of 2007, and a game this bad will be etched into every fibre of my being right up until December I’m sure.
-
If ever there was a game that needed to sort the wheat from the chaff, and then add a mammoth box of wheat to the resulting tiny pile, Fuzion Frenzy 2 was it.
-
The only good that this game serves is that it keeps Fuzion Frenzy’s legacy of being synonymous with “bad game” alive for another generation. Even if Microsoft offers it as a five dollar download on Xbox Live Arcade, pass on it – unless, of course, you collect Worst Games of the Year.

Official Xbox Magazine UKEverything about this game smacks of a half-arsed Xbox Live Arcade title that's blundered into the full retail schedule by accident. [Apr 2007, p.93]
-
games(TM)Every single component of this detestable mess is aggravating enough to put you off gaming for life. [Apr 2007, p.102]
-
X-ONE Magazine UKPoor mini-games mixed with horrible controls and the worst 'host' ever - the best way to describe Fuzion Frenzy 2. [Issue 18, p.95]
-
In short, it’s simply not worth the mundane presentation.

Aug 22, 2023Awful. Even playing it with friends was painful. Most of the minigames were stupid and boring.
