4.0 out of 5 stars
Offline II. Snazzier, but still the same as part 1 was, April 3, 2000
This review is from: You Don't Know Jack: Louder! Faster! Funnier! (CD-ROM)
YDKJ Louder! Faster! Funnier! is a sequel to YDKJ Offline. As always the trivia is fastpased and sarcastic, which is to be expected from the PC series. This one however is more true to the You Don't Know Jack Netshow game in which the game is based. This time, you are able to choose categories at the beggining of the game. Depending on which one you choose, depends on which questions you get, a little like The Netshow and THE RIDE-the best YDKJ game. At the end, you can even set this categpry in a favorites list to play later. Unlike OFFLINE your host has been replaced with Schmitty, who does a fair job, but isn't NEARLY as much fun as host Cookie was in the previous installment. Again, much like the previous installment, many of the jokes and sounds have been mostly taken from earliar games. Questions are new however to those unfamiliar with Netshow. Visual effects in between questions, and some of the sounds are much flashier and snappier then previous games, but I would have preferred more jokes. The Pissed about a Question feature is back as well as another new question type called Whendithap'en, which is simialar to the Threeway game from Volume 3. YDKJL!F!F! is still a fun game regardless of the repeated sound use from older games. I enjoy it a lot, but for the best JACK experience, I STRONGLY suggest THE RIDE.

Contrary to popular belief I DO know Jack, April 23, 2000
This review is from: You Don't Know Jack: Louder! Faster! Funnier! (CD-ROM)
The newest installment of You Don't Know Jack is indeed a lotof fun. Heck, I play all 9 CDs with an alarming degree of frequency.As the previous comment said, this is very much like the online game, where you choose an overall subject for your game at the beginning. Then you play the game like normal. Well almost normal. In the other games you choose between a 7 and 21 question game while in here you play 15 (the online version does too for those who never played it, neither tell you ahead of time about the change)... Also Schmitty hosts this like he does the netshow (he hasn't hosted on CD since the TV CD and parts of the Ride). Also we have a new person setting up the game for you, Raul has been replaced by Sandy. By the way, for those of you who only play the netshow, all the questions on the netshows are repeats of questions from the other cds so you might care to buy the entire series so you can have fun playing this without needing your internet connection... Enjoy an overall welcome addition to the Jack family.

4.0 out of 5 stars
A good game, but not much of an improvement, July 25, 2000
This review is from: You Don't Know Jack: Louder! Faster! Funnier! (CD-ROM)
YDKJ L! F! F! is a hilarious, fun, and fast-paced game. However, it is not much of an improvement over previous JACK games. It is not worth buying if you already have YDKJ.
