UGh . Gohd . Cough. Wheeze. Wait. Before death takes me again. One more cool X-box game. And this time i mean cool only in a vaguely nostalgic sense, because this game is not actually what any sane person would call good. Not now, not then, not ever. But it doesn't have to be good. Nor was that ever a requirement.
This is Fuzion Frenzy, a shitty party game x-box launch title, and all it ever had to be was rad. That much it clearly succeeded at if nothing else. You take one look at this game back in 2001 and you think to yourself hell yeah, we're in the future now. This ain't some baby Mario Party crap, this is the X-Box and our games have chicks with their midriffs out.
Sometmes back then it wasn't about the games being good. It was about having a big stack of green labelled games all over your coffee table to look cool next to the great behemoth of a console that was the OG XBOX.
You had Halo and Project Gotham Racing, those were your good games, the rest were just there to complete the pile. Everybody owned Fuzion Frenzy and not a single person ever played it. It was a 50 dollar coaster, and what a hella cool coaster it was.
Now at long last we can finally bear witness to what was actually on this disc, and it... sure is something, i guess. Something crappy, but something nonetheless. It's a frenzy alright, a frenzy of fuck.
