Solo mode is practice?

2 Rating: 2, Useful: 1 / 4

The "explanation" for why one doesn't get the correct answers in a solo game--that "solo mode is practice"--is simply unacceptable. One of the benefits of most computer games is that one can play a full-fledged game against a virtual opponent. It is unlikely, having learned this, that I will purchase this software.
However, I don't understand what Douglas Gardner's problem is with the Forest Hills commentator's playing while traveling--playing a game with the audio low or with headphones is not the same thing as yelling into a cellphone--so long as s/he's on public transit and not driving a car!

This is great!

I own the same version by Infogrames. I love it. You really get the feel that you are on the TV program. It includes the stands, the game board and Alex. There a lot more puzzles (questions) that challenge you mind. Great fun.

Its a good game if you like triva games. The money values are up to date with the real tv show and it feels that your right in the studio actually playing the game. I dont know if it works under Windows 98 but It works just fine under Windows XP professional edtion.

Jeopardy is challenging and fun. If you like trivia, this is the game to play.

It's the greatest game show game on computer. What is J?

This version of Jeopardy! is one of the best game show computer games ever! It has stunning 3-D graphics and over 5,200 answers! It also has a contestant exam that gets you ready for the game! Also in this game, Alex Trebek doesn't have a mustache. I give this CD FIVE STARS!

Read the directions

Mr. "Gamer" from Forest Hills should read the comments from
"Theodore John Illenberg (see more about me)" to see why
he (gamer) couldn't get answers because he was "playing with
himself" while traveling; NOT a good idea (like cell-phones and
booze and driving) ;>)

Big disappointment

In this day and age I assumed all vidio games, exspecially a game like jeopardy or wheel of fortune would have online multiplayer capabilities so you could play with friends online. I was wrong.. that would have made this game a 5 star to me. ...

No online or LAN capability

Game is ok by itself...and would have gotten a 5 star rating from me if it could be played online or at least via LAN. Since it can not it does not warrant that high of a rating. As a matter of fact I would not recommend anyone PURCHASING this game for anything over $... There are plenty of other online trivia games. Wait until Infogrames reaches the technical level of true multiplayer gaming instead of having bored gamers huddle around one keyboard (which is meant for use by one person, by the way).

Not recommended

There are many problems with this version of computer jeopardy. The interface is awkward-looking and doesn't come up to the TV version at all. It's difficult to buzz in on your computer keyboard and the worst thing is, they don't provide you with the real answers if you miss one. This is inexcusable and exhausting. Another irritating element is you *must* spell your answer correctly. Though the same claims you misspell your answer (as long as it's reasonably close to the actual spelling), this is simply untrue.

A frustrating experience. It's actually more fun to do what I do: pretend you're an actual Jeopardy contestent and 5-time champion. I've gotten more pleasure from living vicariously than actually playing this computer game. There are too many glitches, too few perks to justify a purchase.

Disappointed In Quality

This game can be very annoying because of the need to be specific to a certain degree much of the time. Only thing is, it is not consistent. For instance at times the answer would need to be Princess Diana and other times the answer should be Diana. Also, many times the question read aloud is NOT the one on the screen therefore your answer would be different than what is being said aloud. It crashes after 3 games almost like it is overheating and usually during a game. Last, I have found information incorrect in the game. When you put it to loose spelling it does not honor it sometimes counting me wrong with only one letter off where maybe I put a plural instead of a single. I was very disappointed in it.
