Very fun! [Posted on 2005-11-25] This game is a lot of fun. And, the most impressive thing for me was that everyone can get involved and enjoy it. It's challenging enough for music lovers, but simple enough for casual music fans.
The Battle of the Bands portion was probably the most fun and got everyone involved. Everyone is given one topic... like 'Bands that start with the letter S.' Then, you go back and forth naming bands until one team can't think of any more.
It's good fun for the money.
Fun game while it lasts (which isn't long) [Posted on 2006-02-15] I really enjoyed this game at first and loved playing it with our friends. BUT, after playing the 6 games you're done. What a waste for the money. You basically get 6 hours of playtime total and you might as well throw the game out. Big Bummer. Wish I bought the Scene It Music edition instead...
What a huge waste of money... [Posted on 2006-02-20] This DVD contains six rounds. The questions are the same everytime you play that round. So once you've played one of the rounds, you know all the answers. For the price, that sux. I expected different random questions every game, not so. I bought this game because it's packaged like it's a rock based game. (Guy with the Les Paul guitar on the front of the box, Lollapalooza sample question on back, and it comes with a Hard Rock Cafe poster which the box for the game has their logo all over it) so I bite. Then the game has questions about country artist Clay Aiken and the rapper 50 Cents. What's up with that? Plus the game's main theme music is C+C Music Factory's "Gonna Make You Sweat". It was still rather enjoyable, except the DVD kept freezing up. So overall, avoid it unless you can find it for five bucks or less!!!
Great Fun! [Posted on 2007-03-08] I played this game with my kids and it was way fun. the game is set up with red and blue "teams" but it can be just two people...the answers were not as obscure as i thought they would be but varied enough to be fun for a child OR grown up. I even got another one as a gift for my friend who is a total music BUFF!
Fun Game, but short shelf life [Posted on 2007-12-05] My family got this game about 2 years ago when it first came out. It was a lot of fun for the whole family, my cousin was 12 at the time, and it was her favorite game to play on Family Game Night. However, if you like quiet games, this isn't the one for you. The entire family will end up screaming out the answers. The best part was Battle of the Bands, which is a lot like the game Planet Hollywood. They give you a category (Bands with one word names,etc.) and you have to give answers one team at a time. Whichever team can't think of anymore or repeats an answer loses the challenge.
The biggest problem with this game is that it only comes with 6 games, so once you've played all of them you're done. You can play them again if you wait about a year or if everyone playing has a really bad memory.
