There are five kinds of questions on this game.The types of questions are multiple choice, Dis or Dat, Wendithap'n, Coikydink, and Jack Attack.Despite what other reviewers say that there isn't the Dis or Dat they are wrong.I know this because I have the game and I just copied the question types out of the instruction booklet. The multiple choice question is the question that occurs most often.A question pops up and four choices are given to pick from.If buzzed in to early, the player will not be able to see the question and/or see the screen and will most likely get it wrong. A Dis or Dat is a one player matching question.Two categories are shown and the point is to separate the seven answers that appear into these categories.Some of the time there is a third category that means that the answer would fit into both of the categories. A Wendithap'n is a question that asks if an event happened before, after, or never happened to another event.This question type was first in You Don't Know Jack Louder! Faster! Funnier! first and is not original despite what other reviewers say. Jack Attack is the last question of the game and can decide the game.A hint is shown in the middle of the screen and potential matches pop up for the players to buzz in on.Buzzing in isn't limited and can cost a player a ton of their money if they constantly buzz in wrong. You Don't Know Jack Mock 2 is a good game despite being two games compiled into one.Even if you own You Don't Know Jack 5th Dementia and You Don't Know Jack Louder! Faster! Funnier! for the computer, this game is still fun.If you own the games you can know the answers ahead of time and show off to your friends.(MWAHAHA!)
The host of this game is Schmitty, not Cookie.The difference is that Cookie was a much better host.Schmitty gets the job done, though. This game is not slow-paced AT ALL.If anything, it's too fast-paced.In the PC versions, the host introduces the theme of the show before jumping right in.In the Playstation version no screen was made for the host to introduce the theme, so he just does it after saying the category of the first question.What...? Also, the "When'dit'hapin" question type is completely new to the YDKJ series.You won't be able to find it in any of the other games, PC or Playstation. Finally, some more comments: during the final "Jack Attack" round, the center word is colored exactly the same as the area around it in the beginning, making it very hard to answer the question.Also, the game is supposed to automatically save the high scores onto your memory card, but it will only save onto memory card slot 1, and won't give you any message if there's no card in the slot.
I must mention, however that if you own The Ride, Louder! Faster! Funnier!, and/or 5th dementia, I would reccomend that you do NOT buy this game.Sierra seems to have a bad habit of pulling questions from existing Jack games for the playstation versions.This kind of makes sense, since it brings some of the funniest YDKJ questions to PSX owners who don't have PCs.

Editorial Review Solo players will skate to win the world championship, with over 100 moves available to score points, including slides, grinds, and landing tricks. A split screen allows players to compete against each other. During this head-to-head mode, you can score style points, race between obstacles, or play tag. If you opt for graffiti mode, both players compete against each other by "tagging" objects while performing their tricks. A replay mode is available for players to view highlights at the end of a game. The level design is enormous, with 10 interactive courses, including skate and pool parks, half pipes, and a downtown area. Each skating environment is filled with secret places, shortcuts, and obstacles. Once you get the moves down, you can perform a trick off of just about any object that you see. Tony Hawk is not the only star in this game--the music stands strong on its own. Cool cuts come from Primus and the Dead Kennedys--which can be inspiring during the frantic onscreen action. While game control is relatively solid, there are some minor problems in tight areas. This title is so large it is overwhelming, given the enormity of levels and available moves. However, persistent skate pros will master this game with a little practice. (Fortunately, there is a practice mode to scrape your knees on.) --Kasty Thomas Pros: Reviews (154)

Editorial Review The story runs somewhere between Mortal Kombat and your wildest dreams of demolition derbies. But the paper-thin plot doesn't matter: you have a rad car and aren't afraid to use it. Whether you choose to control the monster truck driven by the little old lady, Mr. Grimm's motorcycle o' death, or what is quite possibly the coolest ice-cream truck ever, you'll speed and skid around the asphalt-covered levels, grabbing power-ups and blowing up your opponents with a wide array of vehicle-mounted weaponry. In a game like this, several things are key: physics, control, and level design. Twisted Metal III departs from the previous games in the franchise. The levels are smaller and the physics and controls conspire to make the vehicles handle oddly. The bottom line: car-smashing fun that doesn't quite live up to the glories of the prequels. --John Cocking Pros: Features Reviews (63)

Amazon.com Review Despite the fact that it's mostly derivative, the game has a fewoutstanding features. It contains lots of full-motion video sequences,albeit at the expense of load times. The real gem is the soundtrack,which is a nice mix of punk, electronica, hip-hop, and rock. It'sdefinitely one of the best video game soundtracks ever. If you're looking for the best BMX game on the PlayStation, this is it.If you're a fan of extreme sports in general, you'd be better servedwith THPS2 or waiting for THPS3. --Raymond M.Padilla Pros: Reviews (37)

This game does offer variety with two types of racing and four racing team. Not only each team offers various difficulty, but also it offers different storylines. I have especially enjoyed night setting race course, with music which it brings out the essence of each course to its max. May be something's wrong with me for I just couldn't enjoy 'awesome' Gran Turismo games (third installment was very enjoyable)..you might say.. but this game was MUCH MORE ENJOYABLE than Gran Turismo, Don't miss it!
Sound: 9/10 - Fantastic! Not too much of this comes from the cars themselves, but the groovy soundtrack, great commentator and crashing sounds give this baby a boost! Value: 7/10 - A fun car racing game that lasts a long time and challenges you to do better. But in this genre, we have seen games done better and you might want to go off and play them instead. Overall: 8/10 - What can I say? I thought this was a blast. It was fun, energetic and speedy. A good instalment to the Ridge Racer series. The cars were brilliant and the Great Gran Prix is the best part. However, Ridge Racer Type 4 loses points because it is simply too much like Gran Turismo and you might tire of its same-old routine. Still lots of fun and recommended! ... Read more | |

The graphics, presented in an overhead 3D adventure-type view of the battle arena, are fairly good.The intro movie is excellent.Powerpuff Girls fans will especially enjoy seeing the show's intro in 3D animation..Overall, things are nice and colorful and do a good job of creating an atmosphere similar to the show..The sound is also good, although some more soundbytes from the characters or the show would have been nice. The controls are fairly simple, albeit somewhat sluggish.In fact, my first impression with the game was that it was quite slow.However, as you get into the game a little more, the pace seems to be just about right for the gameplay style...Still, it can be a bit tedious at times... As for difficulty and longevity..There are several villains and arenas to unlock by playing through the story mode with each Powerpuff Girl.These can also be unlocked with passwords that can be found online.Normally, the ability to unlock secrets would add to the longevity of the game, but there aren't many villains to defeat, and the game can be finished fairly quickly...I beat this game and unlocked all of the secrets the first night I played it...That's not to say it's easy...it's actually fairly difficult even on "easy" mode, probably to the point that it would frustrate some of the younger fans of the show.However, with so few battles to win, it becomes a matter of persistance rather than skill...fighting each villain over and over until you defeat them.After you beat the game, there's not much point to doing it again.Then it comes down to the simulator mode, a one or two player single battle game that becomes very tedious after about a day.In other words, it's very likely to become one of those games that sits on a shelf indefinitely after playing it for a day or two... Well, the bottom line is that it's fun for a while.It's definitely not an outstanding game.It IS somewhat violent..but those of you complaining about the violence might want to try watching an actual episode of the cartoon..If you're a big fan of the Powerpuff Girls, it's probably worth buying just to dust off every once in a while, watch the intro movie, and play a bit..For anyone else, I'd say it deserves a rental, but you'll find that even the rental period will probably outlast the enjoyment you'll get from the game...
The characters in this game move extremely slow.It makes it difficult and frustrating to play this game.I may not be an obsessive gamer, but I am 18 and have the necessary motor skills to play a freaking video game!So obviously there is something wrong with the game.I wish I had read everyone's online reviews before getting this game, because I would not have gotten it if I had.I would recommend getting anything from the Spyro series if you're looking to play a cute, fun game. You can actually get somewhere with those! Also, Hello Kitty's Cube Frenzy is a cute game for girls.

Editorial Review Collaboration with the TV show's creator, Chris Carter, ensures that the gameattains the eerie visual quality of the show, but the lack of any tension orpacing makes one wonder why the game is spread across an unusually voluminousfour PlayStation discs. Mulder and Scully have gone missing, and as the poorly acted Craig Willmore, alocal FBI agent, you must find the clues that lead to their whereabouts. Most ofthe game is spent aimlessly wandering from location to location, hoping to findscreen hotspots that may possibly give players a clue as to what they aresupposed to do next. Conversations with others seem strangely stilted, and often the script offers upred herrings that will frustrate players who try to play the game as if it werelogically designed. In a number of instances, even though you know what courseof action you should take, you're forced to wait for the game to catch up withyou before taking it. Unless you are a die-hard X-Files collector, there islittle reason to own this game. --Jeff Young Pros: Cons: Features Reviews (28)

Amazon.com Review Enter Electro's story follows the plans of that nefarious,electricity-spewing bad guy Electro, who's trying to tap an energysource that'll make him much more powerful and dangerous. After atraining level that familiarizes you with the game's controls (and newabilities such as the web-grab, where Spider-Man can send out a web andpull an object back toward him), you must web-swing around New YorkCity and stop Electro, his goons, and various other villains fromSpidey's infamous rogue's gallery. The cast of heavies include theShocker, Hammerhead, the Sandman, the Lizard, and a few others from thefirst game. The plot this time out is a little tighter than the last game's mix ofstories, and the game draws on the villains' well-known personas tomake each encounter interesting. Again, Spider-Man creator Stan Leenarrates the story in his inimitable style, and the voice acting isstrong throughout. You can also seek out a few classicSpider-Man covers hidden throughout the game. Spider-Man 2: Enter Electro is a great sequel; it adds quite afew new tricks and villains, and succeeds in terms of story and plot.It does carry over some of the camera problems from the first game, itdepends a bit too much on puzzlelike gameplay, and the save system isstill stingy enough to be annoying (you can only save between levels),but webheads out there aren't going to care, and it's nice to see suchstrong properties are still being released for the good old PlayStationOne. --Bob Andrews Pros: Reviews (31)
Pros: Cons: That all you need but don't buy the game even when it's really easy.

Editorial Review But this game's landmark contribution is its targeting control, which enables Gabe to lock and hold on to atarget while freely moving in any direction, eliminating the hassle of adjusting the viewpoint to face hisenemies. There are plenty of surprises, but all the goals are evident, and your partner, Lian Xing, keepsthings rolling along with radio messages of changing mission objectives. Everything in this game playssmoothly: the story line fits, the action moves at a steady clip, it just works. --Jeff Young Pros: Reviews (83)
