Description official description

After years of game gulping cash left, right and center at the old arcade machine, Pong has returned in an all new 3D title on the PC. But it isn't just your simple Pong any more. Now you can play Jungle Pong, Football Pong, Ice Hockey Pong and 4 player Pong. All this plus 3D graphics. Not to mention animated Penguins (!?!?!).

It is an absolutely great game!

The Good
It was action-packed, challenging, and addicting. It really gets you going. You'll have fun for a long time with about a total of 100 variations, each more challenging than the one before. With all the Power-Ups and Multiplayer madness, Pong: The Next Level is definitely a gotta-have game. If you don't have a specific multiplayer option, don't worry, there are at least 5 ways to play multiplayer. If you think Pong: The Next Level won't be exciting, if this was on a quiz, boy, you sure wouldn't get 100%!

The Bad
About 30% of the time there is at least one bad glitch. It has trouble running sometimes.

The Bottom Line
I would recommend getting this game. It is a good game no matter what system you have it for.
