The Ride: Come get Jacked again!

by fm_hunter Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jun 09 '00
Pros: Very funny, extreme sarcasm, clever trivia
Cons: Too short, too few questions
If you and your friends are anything like my friends, and myself, you revel in competition, be it through physical activities or mental challenges. Playing these games of 'one-ups-manship' is just human nature, especially for us men, who quite simply...

Hang on Tight...

by Eupolis , Apr 17 '00
Pros: Great new look, many fun and unexpected twists
Cons: Question order and floor order aren't as random as they lead you to believe
Ask any of my friends what game I addicted to on the computer above all others, and they will immediately respond "that Jack trivia game." They are right...and Volume 4 in the You Don't Know Jack series is both hilarious and innovative (as far...

Jack's back.

by malaclypse , Mar 16 '01
Pros: Funny, funny and funny.
Cons: No real replay value.
After playing previous You Don't Know Jack titles, I knew I had to get The Ride when I saw it. The game play is very similar to the previous games, with the same irreverent humor that is the game's hallmark. The premise of this game is riding down an...

Jack is great, but not on an elevator

by SlyFox2300 , Mar 25 '00
Pros: Just as funny as the earier YDKJ games, new questions
Cons: I don't like the elevator theme
I'm a big fan of the YDKJ series. The hosts always make me laugh. In this game, you can expect the same side-spliting, sarcistic, trivia humor you find in the earier games.

The game now takes place in an elevator (don't ask me why) instead...

Best of the Series

by jmace19 , Mar 15 '00
Pros: Hilarious, new look, more question types
Cons: It eventually ends.
Even though Bezerk has released a more recent edition of this wildly-entertaining trivia game series, "The Ride" still remains my favorite. The game has a snazzier look than the previous installments and runs quicker than other versions....

The Best Just Got Better!

by john_malaise , Jan 14 '00
Pros: Great old standards like "Dis or Dat", Great new format and games such as "road kill".
Cons: Nada!
What is the ride ?
Well it's an Elevator Ride of course!

In the newest installment of You Don't Know Jack the game opens with a simple question. Something like "Which did you do first: 1.) Smoke, 2.) Drink". After...

Ride The Ride

by voodoo3475 , Sep 04 '00
Pros: Extremely Funny Humor; Simple to use and play; Good party game
Cons: Some slowdowns (but I'm also using a low-end computer at the time of this review)
OK I've been a fan of the You Don't Know Jack series for a couple of years and have played most if not all of them. This one happens to be my favorite just because there are 4 hosts, over 800 questions, and it's extremely funny humor.

Pros: The Cream of the You Don't Know Jack Crop
Cons: Humor may be too sarcastic for some
After enjoying the challenging questions and the witty banter of "Cookie" in several of the "You Don't Know Jack" series, I was curious as to what "The Ride" would do differently. What I got was more laughs than I could...

The best party/trivia game just got better

by deltwalrus , Nov 30 '99
Pros: Possibly the most fun game ever made, bar none
Cons: When you run out of questions, you have to wait for Volume 5
"You Don't Know Jack" (YDKJ) has always been a favorite PC game series of mine, and the folks at Bezerk Software and Sierra Entertainment have taken this gem of a franchise to the next level with "YDKJ Vol. 4: The Ride".
