This is a good game. I would recommend buying it. Here is my pro/con chart.

Pros:

1. Awsome Graphics
2. Awsome sound
3. You could pick from many settings, including: Las Vegas, and Fast Cars
4. Free spins, bankrupt, like the show
5. choose from minute game and rounds games
6. See career statistics
7. Unlock Bonus interviews
8. cool cinema scenes

Cons:

1. No Pat Sajak
2. Crashes computer sometimes
3. AI (computer) players are really stupid, picking W's and Z's
4. Bad voice acting
5. AI can be annoiing when they pick wrong letters, for example, they would groan like babies, and scream, "AW GEEZ!"
6. No option for easy, or hard games
7. Can't skip cinema scenes

So, even though there are many cons, it is still a good game. Very fun, I recomend buying it.

Yea. This one was even better than the first version. I own the one by Infogames. This one gets you into the contestants seat. Vanna moves a little slow at times, but the game is more fun and has more puzzles and better bonuses. I liked it.

Good Fun!

A little too much of Vanna, which slows the game some what, but still fun.

Great

My wife likes the show, so I picked up this PC game on CD at Five Below for five bucks. I knew it was a closeout first released on 9/19/2000 for windows 95 and 98 so expected to find some challenges running it on Win XP. The installation screen is straightforward, although I could not get the Read Me button to work. There is also an option to install Direct-X 7.0 which should be skipped unless you are running a very old version of Windows. I don't believe there is any harm in selecting that item, because the program did not overwrite the current version when I selected it. The game options let you customize whether or not you want to be limited to a 15 minute game and how long the (up to three, including Computer) players should have to answer. The only way I could get the sound to operate was to run the game in compatibility mode for Windows 98 (click the shortcut, select Properties, Compatibility, check Run in mode for Windows 98 / Me). Playing does have some quirks - occasionally the letters selected are not posted, right answers are ignored, the game may ignore one or more players (Vanna asks her questions, but accepts no responses), prizes awarded may be wrong, cash may be awarded in the wrong amount and sometimes the game just quits. However, despite her complaints, my wife keeps playing, so I give it three stars. Just don't expect tech support or perfect performance and you'll enjoy the game. Hey -- what do you expect for five bucks?!
PS The game may run better in a DOS "front end" like DOS-Box, but I haven't yet tried that.

Fun to Play

I would of thought the graphics would be better, to much of the same wording over and over without much of a change but over all the game is still fun to play.

Do not buy this! 1st is MUCH better!

This game is not all that it is cracked up to be! The graphics although better than the first game are VERY slow. The volume is not easy to adjust. There is no way that I have found (and believe me I have tried!) to either speed up the graphics or turn them off. Very unhappy!

Better than the FIRST!

I bought this game for my 9 year son. He loves to play this, it is easy to navigate and keeps him occupied for an hour at a time.
