The Price Is Right PC Game August 16, 2009 E. Johnson (jackson, mi. USA) Fun game if you like the show. There is however 2 down falls of this game, 1 - you must have the DVD in your drive when you want to play it and 2 - the prizes you bid on repete often and its hard not to memorize the prices, which makes the game less fun.
Choose Lover August 13, 2009 Amelia Hunter (Memphis,TN) I bougth a new computer and they were offering to let us pay to play this game. I decided to check the price on Amazon. I ordered the Price is Right and Will of Fortune through iNetvideo beacause thy offered one of the cheapest prices. I was really worried that it was going to takes two weeks after I read their shipment policy. I was really amazed when I received the games in 4 Days and they came from Canada. We have really enjoyed playing the games as a family.
Price is wrong June 27, 2009 R. Garland (Portland, Or) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Does play somewhat like the TV version, be nice if it had 3 games then spin the wheel. Price could be a bit lower......
One Long Commercial January 31, 2009 Linda M. Heinrich (Greendale, WI) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Although the Price is Right tries to stick to the format of the TV show, after awhile I realized it was one long product placement after another. They focus on brand name products and it gets pretty boring having to listen to the announcer drone on endlessly about each and every item offered on the show. One GIANT infomercial. They play some of the most popular games like Plinko and Hole in One, which are fun. The spin-off is authentic. But during the spin-off, whoever designer the animatons of the computer contestants needed to improve the quality. The contestants keep scratching themselves like they are infested with bugs! Very annoying. BUT, the game basics are all here and if you like watching TPIR on TV, you might like to buy this game for some not too challenging entertainment
Some good parts, but not a complete game experience January 25, 2009 7772001 (San Jose, CA USA) After playing TPIR pc game for a few times, I can say there are some good positives to the game, but also some missing elements to the game. First, the graphics are pretty decent. The animations are smooth especially with The Big Wheel and Plinko. Also, the game replicates the sound and feel of the real TPIR. Some of the missing elements has to include the pricing games. They only included around 12 pricing games from TPIR. So gameplay can get repetitive really fast. Also the set is from Barker season 34 or so. Definitely out of date compared to the Drew Carey version with updated doors and music. Also to enter bids in, it is really tedious. Instead of just typing the price, you have to manually change the digit of each number to your exact bid. Also I sometimes get repeating item up for bids and prices to win already playing my 5th game.
Overall, there are some bright spots in this game, but also key elements missing. My suggestion would be to go to bigjonpcgames dot com. There is a free version of the game that includes all 70+ pricing games, plus some retired games. A really good free game that I would say is much better than this version.
