User Rating: 10 | Jazz Jackrabbit 2 PC
Jazz jackrabbit 2 The Secret Files, is the expanded sequel to the amazing original. Featuring some nice multiplayer which can also be played online and a lot of home cooked levels floating around on the internet and the ability to make your own, makes up for the dissapointingly short single player, even with the 9 new levels TSF has to offer, You have the option to play as Jazz, his brother Spaz, or his Sister lori too, if you are any good at side scrollers, you might want to just put it on hard.

If you go to www.jazz2online.com, you can find tonnes of new levels to try, details on tournaments and events, even upload any levels you made in the included Jazz Creation Station

The multiplayer includes co-op, Battle (deathmatch), capture the flag and treasure hunt, and they can be online too (exept co-op), it proves side-scrollers CAN be good multiplayers and if you're on at the right times, you should have little trouble getting into a game. This will probably get most of your attention in the whole game.

Gameplay:10 side-scrolling shooting at it's best, and some nice, frantic multiplayer

Graphics:10 takes a different approach to the original's colourful, cartoony graphics, while you can't play in higher resoloution than 640x480, which really depends on how well your monitor handles low resouloutions, a flat panel one looks pretty nice

Sound:some of my favourite game musics are in this, not really a lot to go wrong with here

Value:10 while the stock levels here may not offer much challenge, theres plenty of downloadable levels to keep you busy here

Summary: it's short but sweet, but as i've said already, the multiplayer and user levels give this as much longevity as you can ask for
