PopCap Games, a company well known for its range of casual games is now back with the popular action game called Feeding Frenzy 2: Shipwreck Showdown. This title is available for download through the Xbox LIVE Arcade online service, featuring a bunch of optimizations that are available just for Xbox LIVE. This version will feature high definition graphics, achievements and leaderboards in addition to different and unseen multiplayer modes. You can download it for 800 Microsoft points (the equivalent of $8), and Feeding Frenzy 2 will be the sixth title on Xbox LIVE Arcade after Zuma, Heavy Weapon and its predecessor among others.

In Feeding Frenzy 2: Shipwreck Showdown, you’re a little fish in a big sea, and must gobble your way up the food chain to solve an underwater mystery. Swim fast, eat anything smaller than you and avoid larger fish who want you for lunch. Battle everything from poisonous minnows to fish-munching orcas in your pursuit of a mysterious menace of the sea. Keep eating the power-ups to increase your speed and growth rate, add extra time, bulk up your “food bank” and more!

This new version of Feeding Frenzy makes a sizable leap in overall gameplay and XBLA-specific features such as :-

• A bigger and more challenging single-player story mode, featuring over 60 new levels with bosses and mini-bosses for an even greater challenge!
• New moves, power-ups and more - freeze enemies, stop time, play at night - even jump out of the water to eat bugs!
• Frenzied fish-eating action can involve up to 4 friends in the all-new XBLA-exclusive multiplayer party mode, featuring 10 new mini-games!
• Story mode enables players to join with a friend in cooperative play
• Multiplayer Party modes come in two flavors: Party Games (pick from a list of mini-games and compete head-to-head) and FrenzyFest (compete for trophies across a series of mini-games to earn Party Points and climb the new Party Leaderboard)
• All-new Lite mode lets families experience the game’s Story mode without the pressure of losing lives (available for single-player and co-op play)
• High-definition graphics and 5.1 surround sound create a more immersive experience

Bear in mind that all multiplayer modes are playable only on the same console.
