Ribbit King - Perfecting The Art Of Frog Golf?

Posted by simoniker on from the decades-to-master dept.

Thanks to The Next Level for its hands-on preview of Bandai's PlayStation 2/GameCube title Ribbit King, a unique new game in which "you play frog golf, or 'frolf' for short. You put a frog on a catapult and smack it around a course littered with traps and point bonuses, and the person with the highest score at the end wins." The previewer notes that "even by my standards, this is an oddball", before concluding: "Ribbit King is due out in June from Bandai, and should retail for $20 on both PS2 and GameCube. Though the demo had a few issues here and there, I can definitely say that for sheer lunacy it looks to be a must-have game."

    I can see myself spending ages playing this game...I've sunk close to 100 hours into over the years

    Heck, I've played Star Wars Galaxies more than that this week!
