    There are several game modes, all of which are quite fun and challenging – as long as you can stop yourself from using unlimited hints in the Puzzle Mode.

    You should play Bejeweled 2. It's that simple. It's great, time-wasting fun worth having for 800 Microsoft Points, just because you can.

    Bejeweled 2 Deluxe brings the classic puzzle game to the Xbox 360 but doesn't make enough significant changes to make it stand out from the pack.

    For those who found themselves addicted to the PC Flash game, Bejeweled 2 might be worth the full download for hours of gem matching fun, but for others the free PC download may still give players their fix when necessary.

    It's reasonably fun, but "Jewel Quest" is better, deeper, and more addictive. [Jun 2006, p.62]

    It's not as good as "Hexic" and that game is free. [Issue#5, p.120]

    But what ultimately takes some of the gloss off Bejeweled 2 isn't so much the overly harsh conditions required to earn achievements or unlock the extras, but the limitations of the control pad itself. Unlike the original PC version, or Zoo Keeper on the DS, you can't be as instant and intuitive when you're moving a cursor around the screen.

    Not a COD2 or PDZ, but at the price it is great. It is all my wife plays on the $400 machine :).

    Not the best, but it's a fun game to just pick up for a quick game.

Toutes ces couleurs criardes m'on donné mal à la tête et comme une envie de vomir sur l'écran. Un traitement ma foi approprié pour un tel affront qui ose se retrouver sur console de salon. Décidément, tout fout le camp.… Expand
