I'm trying to decide whether I do or not.

The single player is no where near as good as the original, too much luck involved and the developers are trying to be clever. It's more of a puzzle game than a game based on skill...

The party games are technically better (Monkey Soccor rules) but my favourite one Monkey Target has been ruined!

Can you get the classic mode of Monkey Target back?

Oh and how many of you enjoy Monkey Tennis... it's very very very similar to Mario Tennis don't you think.

Just discuss Monkey Ball 2...

Metroid Prime next week WAHOOOO!

Phew what a month.

Good decision.

You shan't regret it

Unless you are retarded. Then you may.

I think the single player mode has been screwed. Just spent two hours on "Arthropod" (world 4 level 10), and eventually got through the level by accidentally hitting one of the ring sides, falling off and flukilly falling through the goal.

Monkey Target has more of a less serious arcadey feel which I'm trying to decide if I like, but I'd rather have seen the original style but with more arenas etc.

Everything else is better. Except maybe the fact that Monkey Race has a few stunningly harsh tracks.

Monkey bowling has had a decent degree of life injected into it with the weird lanes and monkey soccer is just class. I'll let you know more once I've unlocked more of the party-games.

I dunno. The party games are great and far superior by the single player features levels based on luck and the level designs are very scratchy and strange.

I mean come on compared to the first game they're awful...
But hey they are trying something new with the sequel so I congratulayte that. I need to know if the traditional Monkey Target game can be found because although the new one is great fun I prefered the original... well I really just want more than 6 rounds.
