SUPER MONKEY BALL was a the kind of sleeper hit that the GAMECUBE needed when it launched. It was easy to pick up, quick to master and the mini-games added hundreds of hours of replay value to boot. Now SEGA has brought us SUPER MONKEY BALL 2, and for those that loved the first, this updated and expanded edition will delight as well. Brighter graphics, new and catchy backgrounds (there is so much to look at in some levels you will find your eyes drifting from the level to catch all the odds and ends... my favorite is the city of New York after it's been eaten by a whale), a story mode that finds our Monkey's making like the Power Rangers to save their world, and a whole slew of new levels, SUPER MONKEY BALL 2 is a must have for any GAMECUBE owner... but there is a downside. For younger fans who found the first game graded on a easy learning curve, this new game assumes that you already know how to play, and not only that, but you already play like a master. There are some levels that require percise moves, require that you follow a perfect path, require you to have eyes in the back of your head (because there is no camera control here, if you loose sight of something - you're dead). Even those raised on the expert puzzles and levels of MARIO will find themselves grinding their teeth in serious frsutration, and clawing at their controller with desperation as you are thrust into some seriously CHEAP levels that require nothing but perfection to complete. It's because of this that S.M.B.2. may frustrate more than entertain younger gamers. Be warned. Other than that - S.M.B.2. is pure delight and is a must for your GAMECUBE collection.
