Xbox One Critic Reviews

Even if Peggle 2 works best as a solitary pursuit, you can fully expect 12 bucks to buy you innumerable hours of absorbing amusement.

Peggle 2 is one-button joy. You think, you aim, you fire, and you sit back and watch as massive combos and bright popping colors take over. That it’s such a joyful sequel to an all-time classic stretches my grin from ear to ear, just like most of the rest of Peggle 2.

A brilliant, addictive downloadable that will is designed to target and trigger the happiness center of your brain.

Endearing and satisfying. [Issue#107, p.70]

It’s just more of the same, but isn’t that what we all wanted? The whole thing is executed with real style and class, and deserves to be huge.

If you liked the original, this sequel is as addictive as the first game was. If you never tried it and your Xbox One is in need of some arcade games, this is one of the best choices at the moment.

Peggle 2 is ultimately the same basic concept as the original set of games, but it's still most definitely worth playing if you're a series fan. PopCap could have done so much more than they did, especially when you consider the generational leap, but the good news is Peggle fans will eat this up and fall in love all over again.

It's a ridiculous, excessive, joyful game that will devour all of the time you're willing to give it.

Peggle 2 is exactly, but not enough of, what we wanted. When you make something this addictive, you gotta supply, man.

It's heaps of fun, totally absorbing, and such a wonderful place to be.
