Simple and addicting gameplay, slick stylised graphics and competitive multiplayer contests make this browser based Basketball game a 'must play' for pointer control gamers.

Played in an immersive full screen mode, the aim is to use your cursor to control the tradjectory of the ball, with a click of the the left mouse button (or equivelant) launching the ball. The controls suit any method of accurate pointer control, with the additional neccessary ability to use a controlled mouse click (or equivelant selection method).

Music Catch 2 retains the simplicity (sound, graphics and gameplay) which made the original so appealing, whilst adding new songs, levels and a few subtle new features.

The aim, as before, is to move your target around the playing area, collecting as many of the shapes which appear as possible, whilst avoiding the red ones. Each level last the length of a song (which impacts on the frequency that the shapes are released). You will progress the level no matter how few points you gain. After each level you will unlock new songs, shapes, patterns and motions from which you can create your own levels. Your progress will be retained next time you visit the site.

If you have been put off by the challenge of joining FM Live and playing and competing against teams and managers who have been developing their skills, tactics and squads over numerous seasons, then the reset of the FM Live Gameworlds could be a good opportunity to sign up and give it a go.

The reset aims to create fewer, but fuller Gameworlds in order to increase the amount of activity and 'Live' play which began to wain in late 2009.

All teams will be reset, meaning all Managers building their teams from scratch, however they will be able to keep their Skill points, which they gained over their careers so far.
