Okay, far too many reviewers have given this game bad marks because it has bad graphics, shallow characters and/or shallow gameplay. Apparently these people don't know what "party game" means! Generally, party games have bare-bones (but still somewhat impressive) graphics, simple, easy-to-follow gameplay, and little to no character development. In fact, party games that HAVE character development (such as Sonic Shuffle) just confuse the issue!

Fuzion Frenzy is one of the best party games ever made. Most other party games (such as Mario Party) have a board game or other such structure to hold the minigames together, and this usually ends up slowing the game down. Crash Bash was the first game to wake up and just be a collection of minigames, but the minigames were based on only a few different themes, and often got quite repetative. While FF has different themes like CB, the minigames within those themes have so much more variety. For example, the Hamster Ball minigames may have you racing hamster balls, trying to knock the other hamster balls off an ever-shrinking platform, or trying to run your hamster ball over as many goals as possible. The game allows you to play each minigame individually, or play the tournament mode. The tournament mode is a bit complex, and I'll leave the explainations to the instruction manual. Overall, this game was fun, fast, and enjoyable!

Oh, and contrary to popular belief, this game could NOT be pulled off on PSX! Trust me!

The Best Party Game Ever!

No doubt, this game takes the cake for multiplayer fun. There are so many games to choose from, that even the most sour-puss face will find at least one game to make them smile. My favorite is definately the "hamster ball" (my own title) game, trying to shove the other players off a diminishing circle of rings.....in, you guessed it, hamster balls. YES!!! I could play this one game for hours!! You will end up wanting to throw parties and have friends come over just to play this game, because it's not that fun by yourself....hence, the title of "party game".

Oooooh, but it gets better. (If your old enough) Start using it as a drinking game....who ever loses, drinks (that's 3 out 4 people -- and each game lasts about 2 minutes). People will be blitzed by the end of an hour! .....ah yes, and fun was had by all....

You want fun? This game is spewin' fun, just don't drink or eat anything WHILE your playing it....you might choke to death from laughing.

Fusion Frenzy was the High Light of our Party

Saturday Night, Nov 17th, we had a mini lan party playing an X-Box a friend brought over. With 7 guys and me (the lone female this game entertained us for 5-7 hours, and could have been longer. These guys normally all play Quake, Half Life and other CTF games. This game is not one of them, but still entertained them!
There is 40 games with in this game. Some are like Gladiator (the show) with the Hamster Cages, some are small boat racing, and some are like Mario Brothers 2. It was very high energy and everyone wanted a controller, looser had to give it up to the next player. It was a game I know I'll buy when we get an X-Box of our own. It is worth every penny to have this game that does not get old, becaue you have other games to choose from with in it

Drink up

My friends and I use this game for what it is. A no glitz competition in which we incorporate drinking games, gambling and the glory of gloating. The games are amazing in their simplicity.
The graphics are...well, terrible, but with 2-4 people we play for hours (single play is not so great, so loners can leave it on the shelf.)
Easily one of the best, most fulfilling games for XBOX. I anxiously await a much desired sequel. Great fun for more than one.

One of the most addictive multiplayer games ever!

First off, Fuzion Frenzy is one of those games where playing alone and playing with a friends are remarkably different experiences. Once you can gather a bunch of friends together and start playing, you realize the beauty of this game.

The gameplay mechanics are simple enough to teach individual minigames to anyone, regardless of how good they are at playing games. The minigames in themselves are a mixed bag with some dull, some OK and a good number which are truly fun. The simplicity of most of the games ensures that non-gamers can get into the game and stand a good chance at a decent showing.

Technically, this game isn't a game you would use to show off your Xbox's graphics or sound. What sound is iffy with a questionable soundtrack (although you can tailor-make your own custom soundtrack) and the graphics work well most of the time for their purpose.

Once you play through a few times with your friends, the sheer variety will ensure everyone is good at certain events... enough that the taunting and trashtalking inevitably follows and sometimes will have to on the floor laughing.

This game is like a vicious cycle... you play, you lose and the single event rematches follow, only to have you come back for more. Addictive... this is one game you should have if you have more than 1 friend.

The best game I've ever played with my kids

For those fathers who like to play video games with their children I can't recommend Fusion Frenzy enough. My 9 and 6 year olds and I can't get enough of this game! My friends and I find the gameplay very fluid with excellent lighting and fun stages. My only criticism is that sometimes the action is very small on screen.

A real hoot! Get it and see!

This has to be the best party game to date. One of the best parts of the game is the single player surprisingly, which offers twice the depth of Mario Party. But the best part is the Muiltiplayer. The games are incredibly fun and offers some classic arcade games with new spins, such as super sprint, marble madness, combat, and even Tron. I personally have enjoyed the Sumo the most! Anyways, this is a hopelessly addictive game that can be played and enjoyed by all gamers. Two thumbs up here.

Unlike most of the reviewers here, I've played this fantastic game at XBox Unleashed in LA. This game is beautiful with smooth animation and fantastic sets. Far better than Mario Party the minigames here shine, the games are all intuitive for the most part, and after a few rounds, competition is fierce for all games.

You do everything from variations of Tron, to old fashioned shooting galleries, to Toobin style races, Tank battles, Parappa style competitions, to vicious versions of Tag, protecting burgers from bugs, SUMO, and classic games seen on the old American Gladiators. That's only a small sample. This game is a blast.

Cool Game

I have to agree with most of the other reviews...This is a great party game. It's like one of those crazy Japanese gameshows where you are a contestant. Best if played with several competitive human contestants!
