The Weakest Link (PS2)

I was recently given a PC version of The Weakest Link by a friend of mine (Shewhosmiles) Trish, who basically thought that the game was a complete pile of tosh. Being a great fan of the Anne Robinson hosted game show, I thought great stuff, this game simply cannot fail, Trish must need Psychiatric help. Here are my findings, 'Let's play, The Weakest Link' <<Da Da Da Da, Da Da!>> ~~~~~~INSTALLATION~~~~~~ Installing The Weakest Link is easy by anyone?s standards, simply bung in your game CD and follow the simple on-screen instructions.

The beginning of the actual game renders the player drenched in gloom and despair and there you go; feeling useless before you've even started. Anyway, let's get on with it. I bought this game alongside Tony Hawk's Skateboarding 3, taking advantage of the 2 for £30 offer from HMV over the weekend.
