Advantages: Over 20 different puzzles, never get the same questions twice, great fun for all ages
Disadvantages: Some questions can be quite difficult, but fun all the same
Scene it finally came to the Xbox, I'd been waiting a while for it to be made into a console game.
Having originally played 2 of the board games with the dvds. Harry Potter Scene It? and the original Scene It? dvd board game. They were great fun, for 2 or more people, but for it to finally come to a console, takes the hassle of the board, cards, dice dvd & remote etc.
Now you can sit infront of the TV with your infra-red controller, just by yourself or with up to 3 of your mates.
All you have to do is plug in the infra-red receiver into the USB port on your Xbox 360, set it up infront of the TV so all the controllers are facing it, and your ready to go.
As you can tell from the name, Scene It? is a movie based quiz game, which tests the knowlodge of players movie knowledge. From black and white movies from as early as the 30's/40's, right up to the present day with the biggest blockbusters around.
There are 3 different types of gameplay options; a short game, long game, or party play. The game has over 20 different puzzles, that it'll choose at random, including "Credit Roll", where players have to guess the film from a list of actors & actresses.
"Quoteables" where players have to finish a line from a famous film.
There's so many different puzzles, so you'll never get bored, and the best thing about the game is, that it saves what questions you've seen, so you wont get repeat questions.
The controllers can be held easily in the hand, it consists of a large "buzzer" on the top of the controller, which on certain puzzles will "buzz you in" and enable you to answer a question first etc. Then there are 4 coloured buttons, which match the corresponding answers on screen, A, B, C & D.
The colours are the same as they are on an Xbox 360 Controller, so if you don't have enough money to buy the game with the wireless infra-red controllers, you can always use a bog stand Xbox controller.
Overall Scene It? is one of the best quiz games around at the moment, its fun to play alone or with friends.
Some of the questions for the older films can be quite tricky, especially if your a youngen, but chances are your parents will know the answer, so let them have a bash.
I'd give the game 9/10, its great fun and I havn't got bored of it yet..
Thanks for reading, and happy gaming. :)
Summary: Fun for everyone.
