5.0 out of 5 stars Survey says...superb!, November 28, 2000

By

This review is from: Family Feud (CD-ROM)

Family Feud, just like the Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy! games from Hasbro Interactive, is simply excellent. The gameplay and sound effects are just like the current incarnation of the TV show. The animations are flawless. The option to create your own family is unique and produces reasonably good results. Louie Anderson is tolerable on this game, unlike the TV show where it sounds like he is close to screaming. Overall, it's a game I thoroughly enjoy and would recommend to anybody interested in purchasing it.

I will offer these 2 caveats to anybody thinking of purchasing Family Feud: 1. If you have a slower computer, the game can act sluggishly. It was slow at times on my laptop (366 MHz, 32 MB RAM, 2 MB video card) while it ran flawlessly on my desktop (600 MHz, 64 MB RAM, 8 MB video card). 2. The full install is a gargantuan 600+ MB. While this shouldn't be an issue for consumers with newer computers, it is still worth noting.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun but not without glitches, October 17, 2000

I love playing family feud. I love watching it on TV (preferably with Richard Dawson) or at uproar.com. I have been tempted to buy the handheld Tiger version of the game but when I found out it was coming out as a pc game I waited. I can't say that I am disappointed but there are glitches. For example, I typed in phone and it didn't give it to me even though telephone ended up being an answer. In other words, it doesn't always catch a smilar word or phrase and so you get a strike. On another note, you can't skip the transition between rounds...when Louie looks at the scores. The player voices get cut off...even though they don't say much other than "cool" or "alright". You can change the level of competition but medium is pretty challenging. I was worried that Louie would be annoying, but it isn't so bad. The choices of families/characters isn't too exciting but the descriptions are pretty good. Overall, I give it a good rating. I have played it several times and have not encountered the same survey yet (out of like 1500). And if no one answers it correctly, they skip it and move on to a new question.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very entertaining..., October 5, 2002

I give this game 4 1/2 stars. I feel like I am actually at the game. Since I seriously doubt I will be a contestant on Family Feud any time soon, this game is as close as you can get to the real thing.

My one real gripe is that Louis, as lovable as he is, can be a little annoying at times. The game has no way to turn him off so it slows up the game.

Other than that, I recommend this game for great family fun!
