Summary: Jeopardy 2003 a disappointment
Review: After being addicted to the second edition of Jeopady I was very excited to play the new Jeopardy 2003. Unfortunately, I found out quickly that not much has changed with this newest edition. I was so disappointed when I found even some of the questions were the same! If you want to see Alex's new look and want to play the higher stakes dollar amounts, then run right out and buy the new Jeopardy 2003. If you're looking for a game that challenges you more than the previous one did, this is not the one to buy.

Summary: This game is terrible
Review: Among its major design faults you MUST always run the game with the CD-ROM in the drive and it doesn't tell you the correct answer if you get it wrong!!!As a traveler with a laptop with a seperate CD-ROM drive, I don't want to have to take it with me. Why cant the program work on its own? It is also stupid that it doesn't tell you the CORRECT answer if you get it wrong or don't answer. This is what makes it interesting!!! There are also a lot of bugs such as overlaping audio tracks which make this less than adequate.

Summary: No online or LAN capability
Review: Game is ok by itself...and would have gotten a 5 star rating from me if it could be played online or at least via LAN. Since it can not it does not warrant that high of a rating. As a matter of fact I would not recommend anyone PURCHASING this game for anything over $... There are plenty of other online trivia games. Wait until Infogrames reaches the technical level of true multiplayer gaming instead of having bored gamers huddle around one keyboard (which is meant for use by one person, by the way).

Summary: This is great!
Review: I own the same version by Infogrames. I love is. You really get the feel that you are on the TV program. It includes the stands, the game board and Alex. There a lot more puzzles (questions) that challenge you mind. Great fun.

Summary: If You Don't Expect Too Much, It's Quite Fun
Review: I purchased Jeopardy 2003 recently on sale, and my boyfriend and I (as well as our friends) are having tons of fun with it. The graphics (the little that is required aka the host talking in video format) are good, the sounds are just like what'd you head on TV, and the voices of the other players are well done (although they never vary - you get the same 2 and that's it).
Game play is decent, but suffers from several glaring flaws. 1) No matter if you set the intelligence to low, whenever the computer knows the answer it will ALWAYS buzz in before you. Quite irritating, and I actually ruined a keyboard because I pounded so hard on the buzzer key and became so infuriated. 2) They were nice enough to supply us with a "reset to default" button, which unfortunately is never needed since it resets every game anyway. This means you set the options, play, start a new game, and have to set the options again. Ahh well at least options let you set spelling accuracy and computer iq (low, medium, or high). It's quite a lot of fun listening to some of the answers the computer gives with low IQ ;). 3) The real fun part of the game for me - LEARNING - was taking away in solo mode. If you answer wrong, you never get to find out what the right answer was. For me this made solo mode boring and useless.
Once you overlook the game play flaws and just give in to the mediocre expectations the game lives up to, you can have quite a bit of fun. Lot's of interesting categories, questions (or should I say answers?), and is quite fun if you have visitors and people start getting bored. Of course I'm in my early 20's so that might colour my opinion a bit ;).
Jeopardy is a great game show, and anyone who loves trivia should definitely purchase this pc version. Graphics and audio are standouts, but the game play has been done better in other versions of Jeopardy. There aren't a lot of trivia pc games compared to other genres, so I guess we aren't supposed to expect that much. A few more weeks in production would have made this game so much better.

Summary: disappointed- frustrating
Review: I purchased Jeopardy recently - started playing it - also played with friends - we are disappointed - it is not the quality of fun that playing along with the TV - Having adjusted the controls on answering found Jeopardy pays no attention, on several occasions correct answer and correct spelling having been given - we were told we were wrong and then told the correct answer - which turned out to be EXACTLY what had indeed been answered - this is frustrating and takes all of the joy out of the game - and it does not recognize the players ringing in when it wants to include annonymous - just ignores fact that one of our players has rung in first. Sorry I purchaed it - will not consider purchase of updates as offered.

Summary: Big disappointment
Review: In this day and age I assumed all vidio games, exspecially a game like jeopardy or wheel of fortune would have online multiplayer capabilities so you could play with friends online. I was wrong.. that would have made this game a 5 star to me. ...

Summary: Jeopardy 2003 Review
Review: Its a good game if you like triva games. The money values are up to date with the real tv show and it feels that your right in the studio actually playing the game. I dont know if it works under Windows 98 but It works just fine under Windows XP professional edtion.
