Eurogamer.se: I have previously argued that PopCap is a genius and perhaps the industry's most underrated developers of games, so it is with great curiosity that I may re-familiarize myself with Feeding Frenzy 2: Shipwreck Showdown for the PlayStation Network. That's right, re-acquainted. This is because the game is already released for both PC and Xbox 360, but now it's time for PS3 owners to see what they have missed.
TechRaptor | I’m a very frugal gamer right now. I love the blockbuster titles. I have my money saved up for Titanfall on the 360 when it launches later this month. But I just can’t move myself to jump next-gen yet, so I’m cheap-skating it for a while.

PopCap's sequel to their internet hit is both a blessing and a curse on the unwitting gamer, with seemingly simple, child-friendly gameplay that will be sure to spark marine-foodchain related rage."
The general rule when it comes to most sequels is, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it". However, you'll still want to apply something different, or you run the risk of people calling you out for not applying something new to the formula. PopCap Games has attempted to do this with Feeding Frenzy 2: Shipwreck Showdown, the sequel to its popular 2004 fish-eating game, by adding a new multiplayer mode, party games and more single-player stages. However, the same old repetitive gameplay and lack of interactivity with others online through the PlayStation Network give this game a mild sinking feeling.
