Critic Reviews for Peggle 2
Peggle 2 is a joyful follow-up to one of the best puzzle games ever made.
Peggle 2 is still a wonderful game, but to a super-fan there are too many things that feel miscalibrated. In a way, that's more damaging than the suggestion PopCap isn't sure what else to do with Peggle: it suggests PopCap needs to rediscover itself.
It runs with minimal loads, has a wondrously vibrant color palette, and the sound is exceptional on home theater systems. But ultimately, players' need for more Peggle will dictate whether they pick this game up now for $12, or wait for the inevitable, and likely cheaper, mobile release.
Peggle 2's visual overhaul makes for a cleaner, fancier Peggle experience, but the lack of leaderboards assures your addiction will be relatively short-lived.
More of the same is perfectly acceptable when it's as good as Peggle, but there's a disappointing lack of both content and ambition here.
There's something oddly enjoyable about watching a ball bounce around on pegs
