  • Summary: The tiger returns to take back the Outback in Ty the Tasmanian Tiger 2. The evil Boss Cass has broken out of Currawong Jail and has hatched a plan to take over the world with an army of Uber Reptiles. Now it's up to Ty, the boomerang-wielding hero, and his newly formed team of Burramudgee Bush Rescue mates to stop him. As Ty, you can explore an expansive open environment on foot or in a vehicle. You'll also have access to more boomerangs and mech units, each with special powers and abilities. Collapse

  1. Rescue very nearly outclasses every other cutesy platformer on Xbox. [Nov 2004, p.90]
  2. Does a fairly decent job at offering younger gamers (and the young at heart) a bit of fun through a wide variety of mission objectives, tons of vehicles, and humongous, streaming worlds. Even though it is imaginative in areas, it doesn’t offer the seasoned action-platform gamer anything innovative or extraordinary over what Mario, Sonic, Crash, et. al. have been doing for quite some time.

    Succeeds as a simple, lighthearted platformer. It lacks the challenge and depth of other titles in the genre, namely "Super Mario Sunshine" and "Sly 2: Band of Thieves," but offers nifty features like sprawling environments and a unique style to help offset its deficiencies.
  4. If you don't complete it far too quickly, you may become bored of the missions or the story.

    I played the first part of the game. It looks good and is fun to play. There's probably some things that are not entirely perfect, but I like it very much. I would've like a camera that's locked behind your character, but most games lack this. Many thanks to the creators of this game. Fritz Expand

    It's very much a typical platformer. But it's humor makes it an above average game.
