I love the Who Wants To Be a Millionaire TV show, and the thought of a game made me quite excited, but sadly it doesn't really live up to the entertainment value of the TV show because there are so few questions, and because they have clearly skimped on some good ideas because they wanted to crassly rush this out for a quick buck. The game skips fastest finger first and throws you straight into the hot seat, where you will have to answer 15 questions to win the virtual million pounds, gaining more money after each question. You have three life-lines to help you get through: 50/50 (half of the four possible answers to a question are erradicated), ask the ...  Read the complete review

Who Wants To Be A Millionaire on the Playstation is based on the WWTBAM TV show hosted by Chris Tarrant on ITV. Inside the plastic box is the PS game itself and a booklet with and introduction to the game and help with the controls and playing the game itself. As this game is from 2000 it's based on the slightly older format of WWTBAM where you had to answer 15 questions to work your way from £100 up to £1,000,000 with the safe zones of £1,000 & £32,000 after answering the 5th & 10th question and this is a point where if you get any of the following questions wrong you will be guaranteed to take away that set amount of money (depending on ...  Read the complete review

My opinion: I think that who wants to be a millionaire, could have been much better. With today’s technology the producers could have at least put in a sitting down, non-moving Chris Tarrent, but they didn’t. They put to blank chairs with no audiance, contestant or Chris. Beside that I think it's a fun, addictive, entertaining game. The sound, speech etc: The speech is exactly the same as the real Chris, and not some cheap sound a like. The bad thing about the speech is after a couple of months every thing sounds the same. You hear the who wants to be a millionaire back round music. Chris reads out the ...  Read the complete review

For the first two days that I owned this "eagerly-awaited" game, I was chuffed to bits. Just the concept of playing millionaire on my own, with an interactive console put me on cloud nine. I spent hours at the screen answering questions. I even got to a million pounds! Fantastic! But come on! Really! I was getting excited about some money-grabbing spin-off of the show. Disillusioned as I was in buying the game, I now realise that it is really a bit sad. I answered a million pound question about the Rogun Dam in Tazakhstan, stretching my brain power to the limits, all for a 20-second long pre-visualised flash of a cheque addressed to "THE ...  Read the complete review

This games seems to be ones of those games that promises so much and delivers so little. I have been a fan of the TV show for some time, and thought it would be perfect to find a game that lets you answer all those questions you knew the answer for but the contestant didn't. But I was dissapointed, to say the least. The game is plagued with problems, most notably Chris Tarrant. His voice, after the first 2 minutes of playing, will have you reaching for the volume control as he continues to spurt out unwitty comments. The game is also way too slow. Not between the first few questions, but after you get past £1000 every question that you answer ...  Read the complete review
