Title: Game shows on PC question
Post by: jbrocato on June 20, 2005, 01:57:24 PM
Besides WOF and J!, what other game shows have been made into games for the PC?  (I bought these two on Ebay and really enjoy them.)  Thanks!

Many.
Double Dare, Hollywood Square, The Price is Right, Family Feud, Talkabout, Fun House, Remote Control, Super Password, Sports edition for Jeopardy; Junior versions of both Wheel and Jeopardy, Card Sharks, Wipeout, Win Lose or Draw, High Rollers, $100,000 Pyramid.
I might have missed a couple.

As a side note--you may wish to learn how to configure a signature.

Was Classic Concentration done for PC?

Reason I ask is because I have it (I still think) for the Commodore, and since also Card Sharks, Jeopardy, and Wheel had similar graphics types were made for PC and Commodore.

Funny how assumptions are made.

Although I have had numerous people through the years who inserted a CD into a 5 1/4" drive and have the drive jam. That's when I roll my eyes in amazement.

Never use the motto: "Make it fit. It will work".

Nevermind all that, David. saussage has just won Invision's first Brick Tamland Award (watch "Anchorman" to get the reference). Any post made up of illegible gibberish chicken-scratch will receive the award. Irismason is automatically ineligible.

He gets yet another Scarecrow for this remark, in addition to the Brick Tamland Award.  He'd have to have a brain before he could put together a post that is remotely coherent.

Have you ever had a situation where a person thought their CD pop-out thingy was a cup holder? :)
