At last, PlayStation owners can scream with announcer Johnny Gilbert, "This is Jeopardy!" and know that it's true. For once a console TV game show lives up to its license.
At last, PlayStation owners can scream with announcer Johnny Gilbert, "This is Jeopardy!" and know that it�s true. For once, a console TV game show lives up to its license.
The esteemed Mr. Gilbert and host Alex Trebek lend their talents to the 32-bit version of Jeopardy!, challenging fans with 3500 questions created by the show�s writers. The PlayStation delivers the show�s visual panache, and an easy interface makes spelling out the answers fairly comfortable, helping you complete lengthy phrases so there�s less hunting for letters. Some of Alex�s sound bites seem forced and silly, but most of the time he�s on target. And occasionally, the game is inconsistent--a misplaced "the" can lose you money, and spelling always counts--but by and large, this is more fun than shouting at the TV.
