In case if you do not know "Jack about this game here is a clip:




I loved those games back when I was in high school. I wish they could bring those back to the computer that would be awesome! I love it how the host is a jerk to you when you get the wrong answer. Plus it is one of those rare games where high culture and pop culture collide with a douce of sarcastic humor.

That was a fad in the late '90s--which only went to
show that the programmers didn't know jack
about how little guff computer users were prepared to take.

It didn't help them at all that jack, in this context,
is close to a swear-word. (jack as in jack squat, jack sh*t,
m*st*rb*t* all)

I remember this game. I pretty much like all Trivia based games.

I had it on the Playstation.


Since I have a severe case of not caring about pop culture, I'd only play it against my brother for comedic value.

I liked the demo back in the day, but there were only like 30 questions, and eventually I knew the answers to all of them ¬_¬

I just like trivia games in general...I don't think I'm really that good at them, but my friends always tell me I am.
