Jam Sessions 2 Review at CheatCC

CheatCC says, "In trying to be a Jack-of-all-trades Jam Sessions 2 loses some of the focus and mastery of its core element as a musical tool. That's probably a fair concession for players who've been looking for something more game-like in the package. This sequel could have been an opportunity to build much more heavily on the successes of the first game. Instead, it adds a little here and there and expands into slightly different territory to appeal to a broader audience. Even so, it still manages to be an enjoyable experience."

NWR: Jam Sessions 2 Review

Jam Sessions 2 isn't a terrible game, but it seems to be a huge step in the wrong direction for the series. The original's emphasis on making your own music now splits time with the lackluster Guitar Hero-esque Songbook mode, and you have to play through that mode in order to unlock most of the tools for the Song Creator. Unless you're crazy about games with decent song creators in them, you're better off leaving this game behind and picking up a more polished rhythm game.

GameZone: Jam Sessions 2 Review

Jam Sessions 2 attempts to build upon this success, expanding into new gameplay modes and offering a somewhat more accessible package – though the results may disappoint some of its core audience."

Gamervision: Jam Sessions 2 Review

Gamervision writes: "Prior to putting Jam Sessions 2 into my DSi, I hadn't touched a single music game on the handheld. Games like Rock Band and Guitar Hero have always been more multiplayer focused, and even though Jam Sessions 2 is based around the guitar only, I just never understood the appeal of trying to play an instrument with a system as tiny as the DS. Sadly, after playing the game for a few hours, my opinion remains unchanged, and despite some pretty interesting creation tools, Jam Sessions 2 isn't very fun to play."
