Editorial Review: You Don't Know Jack, a popular and irreverent trivia game previously available only on the Internet and computers, has come to the PlayStation. At seven or 21 questions in length, this game is fast, furious, and difficult. Every subject imaginable from pop culture to math is covered through five types of questions: multiple choice, impossible (some very random facts), ThreeWay, DisOrDat, and Jack Attack.
ThreeWay questions require you to buzz in when the correct answer is highlighted among three onscreen choices, while DisOrDat asks you to correctly group words into two or more categories while the clock ticks away. The game gets particularly heated during Jack Attack mode, which challenges gamers to buzz in when they see a word or phrase that matches a specific clue.
Reading fast and buzzing in quickly are beneficial skills. Although the designers didn't add much in the way of graphics or extras for this version, there are two discs full of questions to avoid repetition. Some phrasings and topics aren't suitable for the pre-teen and younger players because they consist of bodily functions, profanity, or sex. Up to three contestants can play, but you'll need a Multi Tap (sold separately). --Carrie Bell

YOU DON'T KNOW JACK WILL BE ABLE TO KEEP YOU ENTERTAINED FOR HOURS BECAUSE THERE ARE 2 CDS FULL OF QUESTIONS. THE HOST, COOKIE, IS ALSO COOL. HE CAN BE FUNNY EVEN IF YOU GET AN ANSWER WRONG.MY PERSONAL FAVORITE ONES ON HERE ARE THE IMPOSSIBLE QUESTIONS. THEY ARE WEIRD!! ANYWAY, THE GAME ITSELF IS COOOOOL.

If you like the Computer version then you will like this game. It is for Playstatin but can be played on Playstation 2. It is almost the same as the computer game except that there are more questins and no gibberish question (personally that was my favorite.) The gams also automaticly saves game data to your memory card so that the owner of the game can't cheat by knowing the answers already. It's a fun party game, who would want to sit around a computer screen to play a game when you can use your TV?

I love YDKJ because it is a hilarious game. I don't care about winning because the game is very fun even if you don't win. The questions are pretty tough, but I know a few of 'em. When me and my cousin play, we just go crazy and see who can buzz in first, then we guess the answer. I love it when the host tells the name of the category. It's hilarious the way he says most of 'em, especially "Dude!". I die when he says that. When you miss a question and he insults you, that's very funny too. I especially like it when he swears... Uh! Oh! I'd better go! I feel another jack attack coming on..... AAAHHHHHHHH!!!

JACK for Playstation whisks you from the green room to prime-time! Imatating V3, it is still a very great game. Comes on 2 disks. I Love it. (I don't own this game, but I still like it.) Question types are as follows: MC, Gibberish, Super Audio,Impossible, Jack Attack, etc. ... I hope you like this game. Stay tuned for my JACK Mock 2 review. I give it 5 out of 5 stars. Since it is so good a game on the PC. Get JACK for playstation! Caution: Suitable for ages 13 and older only. K? K. But remember kids, YOU DON'T KNOW JACK! Even if you are playing it right now!
