First let me say that I loved the old, blue box, Trivial Pursuit. It continues to be a great game and I was skeptical that it could translate well to a video game console.

I was wrong to doubt. The PS3 version of the game is crisp, looks great, and has fun animations when your puck moves about. I was also worried that the questions would be too easy, as they are mainly multiple choice wrong again. Some of them are real stumpers. Additionally, there are new ways they've come up with to ask questions, for example a geography question showing a map and forcing you to pick one of four points with no political boundaries shown. Can be tough. Some of the questions also use photos, which is fun as well. The questions are also a great mix of classic trivia and up-to-date information one question even asked to choose the website that was not a social networking site: myspace, facebook, live journal, or icanhascheezburger. I can has fun?

The single-player mode is quite fun, and I can see that I will be spending a great deal of time with it. The classic mode is great for a group (have only played with three so far) and doesn't seem to take as long as a marathon session with the board game sometimes did. There is also a quicker multiplayer mode that's quite enjoyable and can be played in less than 30 minutes.

My only complaint is that they've added a voiceover by a guy who's really quite annoying. He suggests at times that you look up the word loser so you can see a picture of yourself, and is overall tough to listen to after an hour or so. That's OK, you can turn him down or off.

Great job, great game!

The game is great!! All the fun of the original, online updates and "expansion packs" keep it current.

I have versions of Trivial Pursuit from around the world as well as era specific sets and find the PS/3 version of the game is great fun!!

Highly recommended!!!

I bought this game for my son who lives in another state. I visited his home in Sept. and we played Trivial Pursuit together. I loved it. He is very good at games and I actually beat him one time with this. I highly recommend this for a fun family game.

Want Trivial Pursuit Discount?

First off, I love Trivial Pursuit. Its not that I dont like this game, just this implementation of it.

I was hoping to see more downloadable question packs by this time. They have how many card decks to choose from, and we're getting squat. I'll pay, just make them.

They have an irritating way of asking geography questions. They show you a map with 4 dots on it. However the resolution isn't always good enough to distinguish two cities that are close together. I know the right answer, but you cant spot it on their map

We're also getting asked the same question in the same game. That's just nuts.

As for the question packs I don't live in India. Why so many questions about Dollywood actors, actresses, and movies that I have never heard of. That pack was totally useless. Glad it was a freebie.

Oh and I wish I could turn off the "cute" graphics. I was able to turn off the music, the sound effects, and the annoying answer.

In short, I just wanted to see a great board game translated to a console. It needed no changes.

Whoever did Monopoly did a far better job!
