Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good ole party fun!
This game is great to have around. It obviously is not a game you are going to just sit around for hours by yourself playing. This is a big fun party game. This is a game you can breakout no matter the crowd. You don't have to be "video game savvy" to get this game.

The controllers are overly simplified. The "big button" is basically your D-pad and then you have the four letter buttons. The buzzers are infer-red so they work just like your TV remote and are not constantly transmitting like the radio frequency system that the regular controllers use so the batteries last for a long time. This can come into play sometimes because you find your self not aiming the buzzer at the sensor that is included in the game.

Overall the questions and game play are solid. The box touts 1800 questions and I believe it. I have played probably a dozen games and have only come across a couple repeat questions. The announcer is funny through the first 3 or 4 games but then he seems repetitive and you find yourself just wishing he would shut up.

Microsoft has finally got the fun party game that they lacked the first couple of years of the console. I look forward to, hopefully, Microsoft expanding this genre and coming out with more uses for the controllers.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - SceneIt XBox360 Bundle - Different From The Original, But In Some Ways Better

As a long-time fan of the Scene-It series, I was pleasantly surprised wtih the Xbox360 version SceneIt?, with 4 Big Button GamePads. I play several DVD travel versions on my own when I'm on the road, just to pass the time. And I've played several of the home versions plenty. But I just didn't think I would make much use of this version of the game, since few people I know are into trivia as much as I am. Well, I should have gotten this game long ago. This is great fun, especially as a party game. Even people who are not trivia junkies will love this.

For starters, the controllers that are included with this game are the same basic design that is included with various other games, such as Buzz and BUZZ Jr.! Jungle Party, both of which are sold on the Playstation platform. So these are not Microsoft specific controllers. I'm not certain who this design is licensed from, but they did an excellent job with it. These are very well designed controllers, and at the cost of the bundle are basically free throw-ins. It's very easy to click the buttons and selectors, and having the wireless option makes these even a little better than the wired version that ships with the BUZZ Jr.! Jungle Party Bundle for the PS2.

Now as far as games are concerned, there is a nice variety of games that will keep a group of four occupied. The best thing about the trivia games aren't even the questions themselves, but rather the question memory. Basically, the system keeps track of questions so there are few repeats, which is a great feature for video trivia games.

The "Credit Roll" game lets you guess the movie based on the character and cast listing. This is somewhat like a video game version of "Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon" and can be very challenging. But the "Child's Play" game shows you a slowly developing drawing of a scene and you have to guess the name of the movie before the others. It's a little bit easier but perhaps more fun for a group. There are also plenty of cool puzzles and nice high quality clips to enhance the game.

There are only a few reservations I have with this game. I feel like the game is different enough from the original home version that fans of the DVD format may not be universally satisfied. Also, the difficulty of the questions is probably less, which makes this less fun as a solo game. The real fun comes in group play. You really need somebody to play with, and having 4 people would make this even better. Of course, that's not a con at all, but just something to be aware of if you're buying this.

I highly recommend this game. Check it out.

Enjoy!!!




Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - make it for other systems!
ive played the board game and i hated it.. so when i got this for my gf i didnt plan on enjoying it.. but its a ton of fun with the buzzers where you actually have to beat them on some answers and its all movies and they have extremely recent movies and there not ridic. questions like the board game.. its a very fun "couples" game i just wish they made it for the ps3 because my 360 broke so i bought a ps3 and now i dont got it! ugh



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good fun
We always enjoy playing this game. Especially like that it comes with 4 controllers so we didn't have to buy anything extra to enjoy it.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great fun!
I got this as a gift for some family friends of ours. They invited us over for game night and we had a blast playing it. I had no idea that the game would remember which questions it has asked. I lost every round of course, but had a great time.
