Crazy Frog Racer 2 (PS2)

Just when you thought it had gone away for good, the Annoying Thing (Crazy Frog to you and me) is back in Mercury Games' imaginatively-titled Crazy Frog Racer 2 PS2 for PC. There was much hoo-hah (and no little gnashing of teeth from some infidels) in winter 2005 when the original CF game appeared, with all the frog's utterances intact. We thought it was a pretty good game overall; kind of a cross between F-Zero and WipeOut - we kid you not! Crazy Frog Racer 2 PS2 doesn't fiddle with the winning formula, you'll be glad to hear.

In Crazy Frog Racer 2 PS2, you can get all interactive with the 'Ding Ding!' madness and race as either the Annoying Thing or one of his friends - the Evil General or Torpedo Drone - as you race around the varied circuits of the Crazy Frog world, such as the cityscape of Axel F or the beaches of Popcorn. Weapons to wield while you're racing include toxic clouds, death spin mines, and erm, flash photography! There is also a selection of mini-games to unlock that includes Dance Crazy Frog! and Pinball.
