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 Definitely out of date compared to the Drew Carey version with updated doors and music.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