A great party game

`Fuzion Frenzy!!! Just played the interactive demo. I can definately see lots of rum and pepsi followed by round after round of this game with a medium sized group of friends. I'm running out and buying two extra controllers and the game.

The charachters are a little cheezy, but something about the game makes me Laugh Out Loud with pleasure. Maybe it was the way there would be a loud clanging sound as one of the charachters failed to jump or duck at the proper time as flag poles and speed bumps whiz around the sides of a giant screw as all four opponents grunt with the effort of reaching the last turn. Funny idea and sound effects.

Over 40 games, including a fun one where all four opponents are in a big ball and must push the other contestants off the concrete island into the pool while large segments of the island fall away, sinking.

Sickness!!! :eek:

I actually enjoyed this game quite a bit. One of the few Xbox games I own that my girlfriend really enjoys playing.

Prepare for hordes of people who didn't enjoy the game though...

It's possible, but I believe that all of my rum drinking construction worker buddies will enjoy it. I guess we all think alike.

Anytime we'd LAN Halo, eventually someone would go to the demos section and fuck around with this game. No one ever liked it, and usually we only turned it on to make fun of it or show someone new how crappy it was.

No, this isn't the Xbox's underrated party game, that honor belongs too two games; Kung Fu Chaos and Whacked!

I will fight any man to the death in defense of these two cheap and fun party games.

All three games are crap.

I love the demo of Fuzion Frenzy, and the lighting effects are still a sight to behold. I need to snatch up KFC soon as well, another one where the demo was really solid.

id rather play Fuzion Frenzy over Kung Foo Chaos any day. KFC (heh...) sucks hardcore. its not even funny how bad the game is.

Frenzy is tolerable. the minigames arent that great, but theyre fun if you have 4 people and nothing better to do.

I have Fuzion Frenzy, Kung Fu Chaos, AND Whacked! but I got them all for under $20, so it's well worth it to me. My friends enjoy them, so that's what matters since we just get together and have fun with it.

My friends are all casual gamers... so it's not like they can play Halo or anything...

Fuzion Frenzy is definitely the most played Xbox game I own. LOL.

Exactly... I used to buy every multiplayer game that came out, but stopped when I realized that sometimes my friends just couldn't get the hang of 'em. Fuzion Frenzy, Deathrow, and Smackdown are the most played games.

Holy shit, I don't remember posting in this thread! That is what happens when you go to two keg parties in one night! :lol:

Must have been a pretty lame party if you ended up on a computer posting at TNL.

Whatever happened to sex? Or the limbo stick?

I think that if you want good party games, get a Gamecube and buy the MP games... they're tolerable. Or if you're cheap, take out your N64 and play the older MPs and some SSB. SSB and SSBM are great for all skill levels I find myself matched up against.
(unfortunately, all bow to the power of Ness... whom I believe was somewhat watered down for SSBM :( )

But yeah, I haven't played an XBOX party game I really liked... so it's not like I can recommend any of them to anyone. And the PS2 sucks for multiplayer games, so I'm not even going to delve into that.

Oh yeah, Bomberman is the best Multiplayer game around, still, in my opinion. But the 1 player modes always suck.

But if you're friends suck at games, whip out a copy of an arbitrary version of B-man and have a blast... (pun intended)

Yeah, I think Parcher is a joke account now.

dave is ok

After four or six hours of Halo, me and three friends would occasionally dip into the Fuzion Frenzy demo, It's fun. The black guys name is Samson ( I think he's black? ) Anyway, I'd probably never buy it

I was hoping a new version would come out to replace my long gone copy of Saturn Bomerman... as my Bomberman: Party Edition just doesn't feel the same. I want 10 player again, dammit! hehe... Of course, I guess the best I could hope for now was 8 player with a PS2 version... oh well, that's still plenty good enough :)

I still think they should have stayed in 2-d and stayed away from the Adventure genre... The N64 Bomberman was a great game and all... but bomberman should no be a 3-d Adventure game, period.

And 10 Player B-man was crazy.

Heck, with the friends I have, 4 player gets crazy.

I didn't like the N64 one at all... I like 2D as well, which is why I said I liked the Saturn one... it's my favorite version by far.
