PopCap Games, announced the launch of PopCap Arcade Volume 2 for the Xbox 360, featuring three of the company's best-selling arcade-style games, Peggle, Heavy Weapon and Feeding Frenzy 2. The game carries an SRP of US $19.95 and is available at leading retailers throughout North America, including Best Buy, Wal-Mart, Target, and Amazon.com.
In PopCap Arcade Volume 2, players will enjoy three of PopCap's most popular and most recent hits that each offer a completely different experience. Peggle is the enthralling, ball-bouncing, peg-busting phenomenon that has become a gaming sensation with casual and hardcore players alike. Heavy Weapon is the satirical side-scrolling shoot-em-up that is one of XBLA's most successful titles, and Feeding Frenzy 2 is the recently-released fast-action sequel to the classic family hit.
Even though FF2 could be stronger, it does come equipped, like the rest of the PopCap Arcade Volume 2 compilation, with co-op action and multiplayer party games. With the strength of Peggle and online features across the board, PopCap Arcade Volume 2 is still a competent compilation worthy of its $20 price.
PopCap Arcade Vol. 2 for the Xbox 360 is the best bet for your money if you like excellent puzzle games and an arcade-styled action game. For the budget price, the trio of games isn't such a bad deal seeing as Peggle alone is an amazing puzzle game. If you like fun arcade games than you really should buy this one.
