Advantages: Not Many

Disadvantages: A lot

Well, what can I say about this Dreamcast game. Not much to be honest. Although I think the TV program is quite good, I do not rate this game at all and if anyone was ever thinking of buying it, then I hope you change your mind because you would be wasting your money. I can't believe I wasted £30 on this pathetic example of a Dreamcast 128bit game! I must say I didn't find the game fun at all, even for the very first go - it didn't go downhill after playing for about an hour simply because the gaming experience was already at the lowest scale.

The game is based on the hit television show on ITV which stars the brilliant Chris Tarrant and of course the 10 contestants, all trying to be the fastest finger first in order to gain a place on the lucrative chair - could win £1,000,000 if you answer the 15 questions all correct. The audience is one of the important factors of the television show adding a superb atmosphere to the whole theme, but sadly and stupidly the game is not quite the same as the TV hit.

WHAT IS THE SAME AS THE TV SHOW:

Chris Tarrant's voice is official, he's annoying as ever - more so in the game.

You have to answer 15 questions to win the top prize!

The music between questions is the same!

It shares the same name as the television show!

WHAT'S DIFFERENT/MISSING:

You don't ever see Chris Tarrant - just empty chairs!

NO audience. Why not?

You don't ever see yourself - or the other contestants.

A decent variety of questions - you will find they repeat very often.

FUN! The game is so boring, slow and just not good.

Value for money: this is the biggest rip off in gaming. AVOID IT!

The prizes - you get a virtual cheque. Fantastic. The point?

Exactly.

A pointless game that has sold 1million copies in the UK - ironic. Such a poor game has done so well.
