Scene it?: Lights, Camera, Action

Microsoft Xbox 360

Rating: 9.5

 

     Who would have thought that a board game would be so much fun when merged with the Xbox 360?  Well, it's happened and I couldn't be any more excited about it.

 

     The original Scene It is a popular board game where the contestants run along a board game and try to be number one by answering questions based on movies.  The original board game is highly entertaining, but the new version specially made for the Xbox 360 surpasses the original by ten times. 

 

     Multiple game modes include; Name the actor, Sound clips ... where you guess the movie by listening to a clip from the movie, End Credits ... where you have to guess the movie by watching the end credits, and much more!  I can't tell you how fun this game can be, especially when you get four people in one room.  That's another point that I should point out, it comes with four Scene It controllers that work with the Xbox 360.  Most games I know would probably include one or maybe two controllers, but not Scene It!  Unfortunately this game has no online multiplayer, why not have it so you can play head-to-head with another friend who has the game?

 

     You can also go on Xbox Live to download new content.  Also featured is the ability to save each game you'd already played .... these features will ensure that the game is always up to date and that there's never a dull moment!  That's one fault with the board game, it would always play the same clips and ask the same questions because it didn't know which ones you'd already played, that will never happen with this version.

 

     If you're an Achievement Point addict, this is definitely a game for you.  If you know what you're doing ... you'll round up well over 600 achievement points within an hour!

 

     An excellent game for everyone, all the way from the beginners who know nothing about movies to the hardcore movie goers who will walk all over you when you play them!
