This is by far the best party/multiplayer game on xbox. The game is very fun and addictive.

Gameplay: This game is a fun and very addictive party game and in this game you play as one of six competitors and compete to be the champion of Fusion Frenzy and this takes place in a futuristic setting which is pretty neat. The six characters that you get to play as include: Dub, an Irish dude who wears green, Samson, a tough black dude who wears red, Geena, a tom boyish girl who wears blue, Zak, a 13-year old kid who has blue hair and wears yellow, Naomi, a creepy looking russian lady who wears orange, and last but not least, Jet, a sugar and spice and everything nice kind of girl who wears purple. My personal fav is Dub. Well, anyways the game consists of two modes and they are tournament mode which is the main game and the other is the minigame frenzy. For tournament mode, you and 3 other friends or computers can play through either 2, 4, or 6 stages, you can choose how many stages you wanna play. The stages inlcude the Coliseum, Downtown, Outlands, Military Zone, Power Station, and Waterfront. Each stage consists of 4 rounds which are minigames. For the first 3 rounds you get to play a minigame in each round and of which they are randomly chosen from the 45 mini-games in the game. Now, for the last round of each stage, you get to play a mini-game called Fusion Frenzy which is like a main event of each stage and what you do in this mini-game is grab orbs of your color or white orbs then carry them to the goal for points. You can boost your score by carrying more than one orb at once or you can be a jerk and steal your friends orbs. Now, for the mini-games. There are all different kinds of mini-games and they are classified into categories. Some of the categories include Rolling Ball minigames, the object of rolling ball minigames is to roll your ball across a point on the board, race it around a track, or bash everyone else. An example of this one, is a mini-game called Sumo where your in a caged ball and your put on to this round metal platform and you have to knock everyone else into the water but a quirk about the platform is that it will fall apart which is fun and challenging. Next category is music minigames and the goal of them is to match whatever the DJ plays or be the DJ yourself. So, basically it's like DDR(dance dance revolution) except with a controller. Another one would be Tail mini-games and the object of them is to make other players run into the tail your vehicle leaves behind it or to trap objects inside a loop made by your tail. Just like Tron with that beam cycle game. There's a few more categories but I'm not gonna get into the rest of them You should find out for yourself. But, I asure you they are awesome. The other mode I forgot to talk about was minigame frenzy and basically all you do is play any of the 45 minigames you want to play without the tournament. I don't think there was one minigame I didn't like.
Graphics: The graphics in the game have some pretty decent 3-D graphics that are colorful and vibrant and very nice to look at. All the levels have a cool futuristic look to them. The characters didn't look to bad themselves.
Sound: The music in the game is pretty awesome with it's futuristic esque music, some of it being techno. Custom soundtrack is availible in this game meaning you can listen to your own jams from your xbox hard drive instead of the game's music. That's why I love the music in this game mainly. As for characters, Zak sounds like he's going through puberty which is kind of annoying to listen to. Dub sounds cool with his Irish accent. The characters in this game also have some sayings which are cool for like the first minute or so but later get rather annoying.
Replay Value: This is definetly one game that you'll definetly come back to whether it be to play with some friends or play by yourself. Fusion Frenzy is a game you'll want to bring to a party. The mini-games just keep you coming back for more.
