  1. Peggle is a drug. But a good one. And with no special "after effects." [June 2009, p.94]
  2. It is a game that requires you to think, use different angles and timing to complete the game. It is a game that makes you sit back and rethink those strategies. But most importantly, it is a game that is extremely fun and addictive.
  3. Simply put, this is a once-in-a-generation puzzler, much like Tetris. It's Xbox Live Arcade's finest offering, and it can be both mindless and high-level strategic fun. Don't miss it. Find an internet connection and create an Xbox Live Silver account if you have to; it's that sublime.

    I can forgive some of the lame cartoon characters that serve as the guides in this game - they become so arbitrary in comparison to the whole package. And what a package Peggle is. The pachinko-on-drugs concept is simple. The execution is fantastic. It was a ton of fun on the iPod, and on a powerhouse like the XBox 360, the bells and whistles make this game even better. PopCap has become masters at making what videogames should be - fun, addictive, and dare I say it - classic. Expand

    Although i would never let my mates see me on a game called 'peggle' i have to since it has been the best £8 I've spent in months. It is devilishly simple but similarly addictive in the way that you will go on at 1pm and get off at 5pm expecting it to be 3pm! The 'guides' and menu layout are slightly over childish but apart from that, the childish nature of the game unnoticeable whilst your playing. WARNING do not get this game if you have important exams! It will be responsible for you working in Macdonalds when your older. Expand

    The premise is quite simple and the game is great fun, if only for a short while. Few will find this title capable of holding their attention in the long run as this game is taylored made for short sessions and casual players. Though for $10, this isn't a bad distraction. Expand
