November 18, 2007 - Good - Although Switchball ticks all the right boxes in terms of things we like to see from an XBLA title, it won't be the unifier that it so easily could have been.
December 17, 2007 - Good - The challenge level is well balanced, the mechanics are solid, and the multiplayer adds a nice chunk of replay value beyond the standard single-player stages.
November 8, 2007 - Good - Switchball is one of the finer, original Live Arcade titles to grace the service in a while, and is undeniably addicting. Even if you plan to play for just a few minutes at a time, you'll find yourself losing hours to the creative puzzles and intuitive game play.
November 8, 2007 - Good - It offers an innovative look at ball-centric XBLA games with its different abilities that stay fresh throughout the five separate environments. It has its faults, but for 800 Microsoft Points you could certainly do much worse.
November 14, 2007 - Mediocre - If you enjoy 3D platform puzzlers, you could do a lot worse than purchase Switchball. However, some of the negative factors in the game can make it an incredibly frustrating experience.
