You Don't Know Jack

Here's another quick update. The wonderfully snarky You Don't Know Jack.



For those who don't know, You Don't Know Jack is a trivia game that basically makes fun of you throughout. The computer game was set up like a TV show, complete with the contestants starting in a "green room" setting while the assistant got various details, such as player names and length of the game.

The real fun begins when the host starts making wisecracks, not only at the expense of the questions, but at the expense of the players, be it based on their names, or their inability to answer a question correctly. The questions are unlike any other trivia game you've ever played as well; YDKJ is the ONLY trivia game to mix Shakespeare and Scooby Doo into the same question. If you really need an example, check out youtube or something.

Long story short, after years and years of no new game... they released a new You Don't Know Jack, and this time it's on all major platforms! 30 bucks will land you 73 "episodes" with 11 questions each on all major consoles. Those wishing to relive the experience on the PC can pick up the title for $20... quite a bargain!

Long story short again, I love love love love love love love love this game. I always have. And ever since the new one came out I've loved challenging my friends and family to ridiculous competition. Check it out!

    @pezasied I would think that a party game has multiplayer.

    Hahaha! I used to play one of the YDKJ games years ago! Back when I was 8 or 9, my mom bought it and we used to play for hours! I'm sure I didn't get many of the jokes back then, but I had a lot of fun.
