Wheel of Fortune

With over 2000 puzzles and myriad prize variations, Wheel of Fortune's excitement can go on for hours - or until you scream, "Please, make it stop!"

How much high-tech glamour does a video game conversion of the TV game show Wheel of Fortune need? Very little, according to Hasbro Interactive. Wheel offers grainy digitized video, bare-bones graphics, muffled sound effects, choppy voices, and, best of all, very strange Dual Shock support for the spinning effect of the wheel. Vanna White looks like she?s being broadcast over a distant UHF channel, while the game?s opening video might be streaming across a Commodore 64.

But somehow the gameplay captures the spirit of the show perfectly--even though Pat Sajak is a PlayStation no-show. With over 2000 puzzles and myriad prize variations, Wheel of Fortune?s excitement can go on for hours--or until you scream, "Please, make it stop!"
