This review is from: Trivial Pursuit Unhinged (Video Game)

Contrary to other reviewers who claim that this game repeats the questions after only a few plays -- it does NOT. All you have to do is make sure you are using a memory card. When playing you must first enter names and pick players. Then save these and/or save the game in mid play. This will keep the orginal players names (and their formerly read questions) in the memory bank. The next time you play the game simply pick the same player or players and the system will remember...and you will have NO repeat questions.

This is alot of fun to play. My wife and son and I all play it together. We learn and have fun doing it. I highly recommend the "Action Mode" of the game -- 100 times more entertaining than regular Trivial Pursuit.

Hope this review helps.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Idea for a Classic Game, April 9, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Trivial Pursuit Unhinged (Video Game)

I was very excited to hear that Trivial Pursuit was going to be coming out for the PS2. I'm an avid board game player and I really enjoy playing classic games over the internet. I've been waiting for someone to finally start developing these games for the PS2.

I have to say that I was not disappointed with Unhinged. The game play is great. There are three modes of play, Classic, Flash, and Unhinged. Classic is what you would expect. Flash is a quick game up a six rung ladder and takes less than 30 minutes to play. Unhinged ROCKS! The twists that they have added to the game are awesome. You can bet if your opponet will get a question right or wrong, and the more points you get, the more damage you can inflict on the other players. You can even steal their wedges.

I've read some reviews that say there are not enough questions and that questions repeat too often. I've played several games and I've run across 2 repeats. With this type of game on this type of platform, it would be impossible to not run across repeats. But unless you are playing the game day in and day out, who's going to remember all those answers?

Bottom line, the game is fun and Trivial Pursuit fans will like it. It's a good price as well. It would be great if you could download additional questions, but you can't. Pretty much that is the only negative I can say about it. Get this game if you are a Trivia fan.
