Bejeweled 2 - Xbox Live Arcade


Just because it's popular doesn't mean it's good

Those special pieces also come into play on the Puzzle mode, where you're challenged to clear arrangements with clever, often volatile chain-reaction combos, but even that's softened by freely available hints. Endless mode, which never lets the board become gridlocked, offers even less mental stimulation. When it comes to puzzle games on Xbox Live, Hexic HD feels fresher and Astropop proves more exciting. Unless you're already a Bejeweled addict, you can spend 800 Microsoft Points on more intriguing stuff.
