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.
I bougth a new computer and they were offering to let us pay to play this game. I was really worried that it was going to takes two weeks after I read their shipment policy. 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 amazed when I received the games in 4 Days and they came from Canada. We have really enjoyed playing the games as a family.
Does play somewhat like the TV version, be nice if it had 3 games then spin the wheel. Price could be a bit lower.
Very annoying. But during the spin-off, whoever designer the animatons of the computer contestants needed to improve the quality.
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. 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.
The spin-off is authentic. One GIANT infomercial.
They play some of the most popular games like Plinko and Hole in One, which are fun. The contestants keep scratching themselves like they are infested with bugs.
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
Also, the game replicates the sound and feel of the real TPIR. Also to enter bids in, it is really tedious. The animations are smooth especially with The Big Wheel and Plinko. 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. There is a free version of the game that includes all 70+ pricing games, plus some retired games. Definitely out of date compared to the Drew Carey version with updated doors and music.
Also the set is from Barker season 34 or so.
Some of the missing elements has to include the pricing games.
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.
First, the graphics are pretty decent.
Instead of just typing the price, you have to manually change the digit of each number to your exact bid.
They only included around 12 pricing games from TPIR.
So gameplay can get repetitive really fast.
My suggestion would be to go to bigjonpcgames dot com.
A really good free game that I would say is much better than this version.
