Its a really fun game that follows the same theme of the show. The questions are harder and are fun to play with a group of people. But there are only 600 questions, and after a while they start to repeat themselves.Might be better for a rental then a buy.
Like the show, but Limited Questions and Slow Loading

Let me say that I love trivia games, and I still love watching Who Wants to be a Millionaire on the tube. As for the playstation game though I have to say this. First of all the game has a very limmited variety of questions that start to repeat after only a few plays of the game making it bore to play after only a couple of days. Number two, this game could not load more slowly from question to question, its like sitting and waiting for your death. I can get a right answer and wait a full minute untill Regis is reading the next question, its just so slow you will want to scream. My advice, watch this one on the tube, leave the playstation game alone though. Try You Dont Know Jack on your computer or Playstation instead. Its a better triva game suited for at home play with pals.
Less than a thousand regies

First of all, I don't know why this game has a 2 player option. Two people face off and only 1 person gets to play the game really. Some of the face off questions are so ridiculously hard that you will be guessing for a long time and the game will keep on telling you to try again and again before ending the game. It won't even give you the right answer at the end!! You should have the option to pass to a new question for the faceoff.
In the game, now this is where the playstation is showing it's age. The loading speed is VERY ANNOYING. The questions are repetitive after awhile. The phone a friend dialogues are amazingly cool and funny. Regis adds a few wise cracks and you got a less than average game. Not worth buying but go for a rental.
Who wants to be a little disappointed?

I had high hopes for the game. While others mention the lack of questions and the slowness of the game, I was more concerned about the overall feel of the game. This game seems to have been rushed out and is not as polished as it could be. While Regis' voiceovers are OK, as is the phone a friend, the game is played mostly in silence. Regis doesn't even read the questions out loud. If he did then I could forgive the game for having only 600 questions. More full motion video of Regis would have been nice also. In addition, having only 30 seconds to answer is extremely limiting. On the TV show there is no time limit, so why in the world impose one here? Just as you begin to talk yourself through the answer the time is up! It would be less stressful if I was actually in the hot seat itself!
if you have a brain, you won't like this one....

This is one that my 9 year old wanted for christmas ... of course, I couldnt resist seeing what it was like, so I stuck it in the psx and played..... This one is tough and the questions are far beyond most 9-16 year olds level of intelligence. If you want a challenge as a grown up and aspire to being on the show someday then go ahead.. otherwise give this one a miss.
Not good for kids,like me.

I do like this game but the questions are confusing.And when you play 2 player game you have to do the Fastest Finger(I Watch the show).My Friend and I have to try at least several times to get it right!And when you don't get it right alot of times Regis will say mean things to you.That kind a hurt my friends feelings and mine too.And the hotseat is at least not as confusing.When you get a question wrong,Bam!You lose just like that!And Regis is again mean to you,To me who does Regis think he is?I mean I like the show and I like him as a host but the game,HORRIBLE!This game is O.K.Some of the questions I can answer.I can only get to 1,000 and then thats it!If you get 1,000 or more dollars and if you get a question wrong after that he will say good Job,but 0$ through 500$ or if you miss the 1,000$ questions you go back to 0$!And then you get the check and Blah,Blah,Blah!And the reason why I said that was Regis says something mean or nice to you then.Not good for kids like me at all!

This game is a lot of fun and addictive. The loading time is not all the bad for the Playstation. However, there is one major flaw that takes the enjoyment away: it's full of glitches. The game always freezes up and sometimes the graphics would just get distorted for some strange reason. Therefore, it leaves me no choice but to reboot the game. This is annoying especially when you are doing well in the game. If it weren't for the glitches, the game would get 5 stars.
