Simple

You are a fish and basically go around the screen eating other fish to grow.

The more you grow, the bigger the fish you can eat.

There are also the usual things like 'enemies' to dodge, bonuses to collect etc. etc.

At least it dosnt involve collecting jems!

The TS2 trailer made it look a bit average, the animations seem a bit wooden to me. No doubt it will play well though.

Game do a 10 day demo service

Feeding Frenzy can be found on the net for the PC, just Google for it.

Was really looking forward to SF2 but it seems to have gone very quiet on that front.

Seems a lot of the 'simpler' arcade games (Zuma, Bejewelled, Jewel Quest) are just converted from the games sites you find on the net, my GF plays on them all the time on the PC so she will enjoy these converted versions.

IMO its a bit lazy, and they should get some better stuff (e.g SF2) on there ASAP before it becomes flooded with crap.

Not worth 800 points, gets a bit boring after awhile.

Yeah, that's the only gripe I've got with the arcade stuff on live. Marble Blast Ultra was a slight change, but the puzzle games are almost exact copies of Shockwave stuff.

Having said that, shows how much these shockwave games generate revenue, the licence for doing a Xbox Live Arcade game starts at £20k!!

Been having nightmares about collecting gems, was thinking i was an indy clone,

scary thing is i will probably start playing it and start to see gems instead of fish on the screen

meh!!
