WHOLESALE LOT OF 3 PC FUNNY GAMES !
I'm selling my collection PC games - Great deal !
F R E E S H I P P I N G !
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE GAMES ARE:
(ALL GAMES COMES IN ORIGINAL JEWEL CASE)
1. WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE
Most hard-core gamers probably gnash their teeth at the thought of
Regis Philbin and his simple-minded trivia game outselling every other
supposedly respectable game on the market. The TV game show that has
every executive from other networks feverishly reshuffling his
prime-time grid is also burning up the computer entertainment charts.
With more than a million copies sold and no end in sight, Who Wants to
Be a Millionaire is the people's choice, whether fraggers like it or
not. Much like the TV show, and perhaps like Regis Philbin himself,
Millionaire the computer game appreciates its own mediocrity, but it
executes its blandness extremely well. First of all, the price is low
enough ($19.95) to make it an ideal impulse buy. Second, it's got Regis
himself, who's key to the game show's success. After all, Millionaire
is about achieving unearned success by showing mastery of trivial
knowledge that otherwise gets people nowhere in life. Who better to
usher these average Americans into the Hot Seat and give them a shot at
accidental wealth than a common-man celebrity like Regis? While the
game doesn't reproduce the social drama that makes the TV show so
popular, it makes do with the bare-bones gameplay and adds some of the
design qualities of the developer's signature product, the much better
You Don't Know Jack. Each aspect of the show is re-created in the
computer game in some fashion. In single-player mode, you go right into
the Hot Seat, where you must ascend a ladder of 15 multiple-choice
trivia questions to win. Reaching the one thousand and thirty-two
thousand dollar milestones guarantees you will win at least that much
if you lose later, though it hardly matters. All you'll get is an
onscreen check with Regis' signature. When you feel stumped, you have
three "lifelines" to use throughout the climb. The 50/50 option removes
two of the three wrong answers to a question. You can ask to poll the
audience, which gives you the actual results taken from a sample group
for each question. The most impressive re-creation is the
phone-a-friend lifeline, in which Regis calls one of his friends, who
then struggles to offer a suggestion that may or may not be right.
Jellyvision and Disney evidently invested the necessary resources to
give the game as much of the TV feel as possible. While Regis doesn't
actually read off all of the questions, he does offer the color
commentary about where you are on the ladder and banters with the
phone-a-friend character. Even after many hours of play, there still
wasn't any tedious redundancy in his comments, and the question
database seemed sufficiently deep to avoid frequent repeats. With years
of You Don't Know Jack experience under their belts, the Jellyvision
designers know how important a smooth audio-visual experience is to
keeping a simple game interesting. In addition to the melodramatic
music, the questions - which pop in and out, causing the screen to
rearrange itself - are animated well. Regis comments on the game
without any telltale sound splices or lag times for disk access.
However, the questions are noticeably more media and
pop-culture-related than those in the TV version, suggesting that
Jellyvision may have been dipping into the You Don't Know Jack
database. Unfortunately, the Fastest Finger multiplayer qualifying
round is the weakest part of the game. On TV, more than a dozen
contestants must arrange four items (like movies or historical events)
into the correct order, usually chronological. Getting the fastest
correct answer sends you to the Hot Seat. The computer variant
struggles to re-create this by letting any number of people choose a
letter as their own on the PC keyboard. The computer then shuffles the
four items into different orders. The first person to press a key when
the right order comes up wins, and then the standard single-player mode
starts. Who Wants to Be a Millionaire could have been a better game in
other ways as well. It's hard to say whether a network-play variant
could have worked better than the Fastest Finger option, which just
doesn't make Millionaire into the party game that You Don't Know Jack
is. A head-to-head or multiplayer contest in which players simply
respond to the same multiple-choice questions simultaneously until one
player remains would have probably worked better. And since the central
drama of Millionaire has to do with the money at stake, it would have
been interesting to link the home and on-air versions somehow. For
instance, home players who consistently reach the top of the money
ladder could automatically apply to be TV contestants. But for $19.95,
one probably shouldn't complain that Jellyvision didn't explore any
extensions to the basic gameplay. As it stands, Who Wants to be a
Millionaire is both a faithful and entertaining simulation of the TV
show. You Don't Know Jack is far and away the better trivia game, as
it's both more entertaining and more appropriate for party play. But
it's definitely the game for those who want to see how well they would
do in the infamous Hot Seat. It may also be the best way to permanently
shut up that irritating, know-it-all family member who barks out the
answers to all of the questions whenever the show is on TV.
2. WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE - SPORTS EDITION
Now sports fans get a chance in the hot seat to face down ultra-fan
RegisPhilbin and 15 challenging sports questions on the way to a

hundreds of questions tat will become increasingly difficultthe closer
you get to $1,000,000.
You'll experience all of the excitement
that the TV show has to offer and someof the most challenging sports
questions you've ever seen.
From the fastest finger round to
doling out those precious Lifelines, you'll bethe one in the hot seat
hearing that ominous question "...is that yourfinal answer?"
You're in the hot seat along side ultra-fan Regis Philbin with all the tensionand drama of the big game-Millionaire style!

(Although
many older games designed for windows 95 ? 98, 2000, ME, etc do not
mention XP in the system requirements most should run on XP with no
trouble. If for some reason the game does not run smoothly or cannot be
installed on XP Microsoft developed a thing called ?compatability mode?
? a function on windows XP that allows you to run older programs and
games designed for previous operating systems. So all older games
should in theory be playable.
