Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)It's a cute game really, and I hate to give it a lackluster review because I'm guessing that people who aren't music junkies like me would probably have a lot of fun with it. But for people like me (and most of my friends) the actual gameplay is waaaaaaaaaaay too easy. I've played through the game 3 times since purchasing it, and only one of the games took longer than 10 minutes, and that was just because I kept getting bumped back by one of the other players.
There are lots of good questions in the deck - and the fact that they have an Expert deck helps (though the Expert deck is considerably smaller and really not that much harder), but the game board is too short, and there are too few clips on the DVD (as others have mentioned).
I have a small technical gripe about the DVD too - it's really hard to tell which category you've highlighted on the main menu. The Bid Avid round is a bit clunky as well, but it's still workable.
Also, it should be noted (for us Americans) that this game seems to have been created by folks in the UK, as a lot of the questions pertain to things that were more popular across the pond. The real give-away to this was one of the Video Trivia question answers, where it a flashlight was called a torch. (At least I'm pretty sure that's not American lingo...)
All in all, it's not awful, but if I'd been able to play it before buying, I probably would have skipped buying it.
