    While Scene It? & Buzz! have delivered the first taste of serious trivia games on consoles, Trivial Pursuit pushes the whole concept further by offering the most complete and challenging videogame based of a board game on the market as of now. Yes, even if the game doesn’t support online play, it remains a great game.

    With thousands of questions across six categories, and the option to purchase downloadable packs on the cheap, this version of Trivial Pursuit won't get old anytime soon. You'll love the game's format, thanks to a multiple-choice set-up, jumping player pieces and single and multiplayer modes.

    A surprisingly fun and well put-together version of the classic board game of the same name. A couple new modes add variety to the rules we've been playing with for most of our lives, and the console-specific tricks, like picking spots on a map and the use of images, is great. The lack of online can't be forgiven, however.

    The bottom line here is that Trivial Pursuit the game is a must-have for fans of the board game.

    A must-have for fans of the board game. The promise of future DLC is invigorating and the sheer amount of content out of the box is already impressive enough.

    If you enjoy Trivial Pursuit, this title is a must-have in your collection.

    Trivial Pursuit on the Xbox 360 is a pretty well-made digital adaptation of a board game classic. But its flaws are also rather glaring, especially the lack of online play.

    This latest Trivial Pursuit title is a great take on the classic board game. Although suffering from a few issues, it still has a lot to offer for armchair trivia veterans and casual enthusiasts alike. Ultimately the success of this game will be tied to the frequency and quality of DLC.

The game is good fun and pretty easy achievements. Better than scene it, but the animations do get tedious.… Full Review »

A lot of the sports are about international sports - we're Americans, let stick to American sports and leisure please. My wife inadvertantly chose a non-pleasing avator but there is apparently no way to change it - the "manual" provides no help. And the fancy graphics are fine to being but annoying after the third time yet there is no way to turn them off. Poor production value, poor user interface, dubious questions, poor Quality Assurance - I don't think we'll be buy another product from this group.… Full Review »
