Toys and Games Reviews of Deal or No Deal DVD Game
Customer Review: No Deal! This DVD sucks.
Summary: 1 Stars
Bought this DVD this weekend at Wal-Mart. Graphics aren't so great, the game is slow and pauses as if it is going to freeze. I was hoping that it would be a lot like the actual game but... It doesn't display all the cases at one time but rather displays an up and down arrow as you scroll through the cases. Because of this, I was not able to really see what number I had picked previously. It also does not display all of the amounts as you choose them, only displays them after you choose the prescribed number of cases. Not really fully interactivbut displays one screen at a time.
I am going to try to take it back to Wal-Mart and get my money back. It seems that the makers of this were just looking to make money on a great game show but only created a subpar DVD. I hear that there are several versions of this game out there. I obviously picked the wrong one. I went online and played a online version that was much better and it was free. I guess I'll connect my laptop to my television and play for free.
Customer Review: Not the Real Deal...
Summary: 3 Stars
This version of the "Deal or No Deal" television game moves very slowly. On the real show (as well as their online version) you can see ALL of the remaining cases from which to choose...this DVD version only shows 4 cases at a time and you must scroll through 7 screens to view them all. This makes for a LOOOOOONNNNNNG game.
They do use the real "Howie" (no cartoons) however, there is only a view of a girl's hands opening each case and it's obviously the same girl.
Howie's comments are basically the same so, they become very repetitive after you've played the game once or twice.
In trying to make the DVD approximate the "real" experience...they have only succeeded in making it very tedious. You end up wanting to MOVE ON to the results.
The improvement over the real game is that you can have more than one player...each alternating choices - trying to end up with a better outcome.
Customer Review: A Disappointing Purchase
Summary: 2 Stars
I'm very glad that I bought this game on sale for $5. While "Deal or No Deal" is, in itself, very amusing, players can't even enjoy it in this format because the way it's set up is so poor. The gameplay is very slow; at first I thought it was just my DVD player, but when I used it with the PS2, I ran into the same problem. When you choose which cases you'd like to eliminate, you have to scroll through every case number to get to the one you want, which wouldn't be so bad, except that scanning through them takes a LONG time, and you have to press the buttons over and over again to get the disc to respond. Also, for those of you who really like the women holding the cases, the same one's profile is shown over and over again in the game: no variety. Overall this game is really not worth purchasing. You almost want to make any deal that the banker offers just to be able to stop playing...Customer Review: No Deal
Summary: 1 Stars
I received this game as a gift. Previously, I had thought about purchasing it, but opted out because I had read comments about it before. Sooo, when I got it as a gift I thought, What do I have to lose? I attempted to play it in one DVD player. As soon as it got to the menu part, the darn thing just shut off! After trying this several times, I decided to try it in another DVD player, a newer one, and found that I could make it to the menu, but I couldn't scroll through the cases! I am so disappointed that I never got to actually play the game! I also feel bad for the person who bought it for me because they knew how much I enjoy the show and was trying to make me happy. It is called DEAL OR NO DEAL, and I got the NO DEAL. Anyway, I would highly recommend not buying this game. I think I am going to stick to board games for awhile.Customer Review: Deal or No Deal DVD Game
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this game!!!!! I enjoy the show so much & decided afterwards to buy the game. It is extremly entertaining & easy to play even with 1 player. I enjoy the fact that the game is mind boggling. It is exciting & fun to try and find that 1 million. I would say that this game is appropiate for all age groups (both children & adults). The younger children might have difficulty following along, but for the most part it is easy to play & understand. The game is played for the most part by DVD. There is very little writing to do. The only writing that there is to do is when your trying to keep track of the cases & money offers. It would have been nice if there were dry eraser boards to use instead of paper. In the long run it would also be more cost effective especially if you play it as much as I do.
