What our customer's say!
"Fine for one or two times", We used this for a group game at a party and it was fine for that; however, it starts reusing products and prizes pretty quickly which ruins it a little. On the positive side, it was very similar to the game on TV and as a novelty game, it delivered.
"Great game!!", This is a great way to get ready for any "Price is Right Live shows", that you may be going to. Although the games repeat, it is still a great way to get the feel of the games you may play live. Well worth it!!!
"Lame Game", Not worth the money, in my opinion. Not only do they start repeating items to bid on, showing the same thing over and over again, but the characters are creepy as all get out. I'm not pleased that I wasted money on this.
"Not "JUST LIKE THE REAL SHOW!"", I'm a huge Price is Right fan and this game was not "just like the real show" as they advertise. The game play is slow and choppy. You really have to know what you're supposed to be doing next to keep it moving at all. Also, to know who goes on to the next round, you're supposed to add up the value of your prizes... but they don't always tell you the value of the prizes! Speaking of the prizes it seems like fifty percent of the time the prize is "A NEW CAR!!" It is exciting the first few times, but then you start to get them every other turn and it isn't so exciting.
Overall, this game is really only fun if you make it so. After the first time few times playing I lost interest. We only bust it out when the right group of people is here to make it exciting.
"Come on down...", I was very pleased with this DVD game. It combines all the favorites from my favorite gameshow. This is a game you can play with a small or large group, or even just wasting time by yourself. I am a big fan of the classics such as Plinko, Mountain Climber and Safe Cracker... they are all there! Great fun for the entire family.

"Good...not great", The game itself is actully pretty good. You can go through the entire Price is right game or you can just go to each section. Like if you just wanted to do the pricing games, there's that option or you can do the showcase showdown etc...
There are times that the graphics of the game lag, which is kind of odd since to me since I wasn't playing it on a computer, but on my DVD player.
The pricing games are 'random' but you do tend to get some of the same games more than other games.
You can technically play this game by yourself, but it's obviously going to be more fun the more people you have.
"Come On Down?!", There is just so much going on with the success of DVD games in the toy market these days. Nevertheless, the feeling of placing games on DVD has not always been as smooth and strong as you would definitely expect. That also has been the case with placing game shows nto the home game market too. With game shows like Name That Tune, Password and Family Feud having that as a board game isn't really all what it is cracked up to be. That also can be said for The Price Is Right too. The most popular game show in daytime television and on CBS has always had a difficulty of placing games into that measure. Now that longtime game show is being placed on the DVD board game. Can this be just as good as the show on television?
The Price Is Right DVD game, gives a beautiful and actual simulated experience of actually being in the studio where The Price Is Right is. The game shows that beautifully with the graphics and textures from spinning the big wheel, to a drop of a single plinko chip, and even displays the original themes that have made it a game show legend. The DVD features a dozen games from Price Is Right's lineup that are elegantly detailed including Grand Game, Cliffhangers, Plinko, Pass The Buck, Most Expensive, Golden Road, and Safe Crackers to name a few. The games still have a lot of fun, and also are shown beautifully. That also shows with actually stills of prizes, the Barker beauties', and the products that are highlighted from the show itself.
While the design is great, there are a few disadvantages to The Price Is Right as well. One of the biggest disadvantages is that there are just too few pricing games shown. Classic games like It's In The Bag, Squeeze Play, Three Strikes, Secret X, and Hit Me aren't really highlighted here at all. Although, it is just difficult just to display all of them onto one game alone. Another problem is that you hear different announcers describe each of the items on the show from Rich Fields, to Burton Richardson who worked on the Family Feud DVD game, to even the late Rod Roddy who died in 2003 from colon cancer. Not only that but Bob Barker, the host of Price Is Right isn't highlighted here either. Instead, Todd Newton, the host of GSN's Whammy: The All New Press Your Luck is the DVD M.C. here. Nevertheless, Todd does deliver well as a substitue host.
Despite all that The Price Is Right DVD game isn't all that bad, but I just wish there was just so much more to play around with in the process. That is just the main problem. Still, if you haven't seen The Price Is Right on television, or if you haven't played any of the games, than his would be a great buy. As for die hard fans of the show, you're just better off taping it everyday instead.

"Price is almost right", I really enjoy the game & so do my grand kids, especially Plinko.It's great fun & just like on TV. The only problem is that there are not enough variables in the games and after awhile you know the prices. It's a little repetitive. I give it 4 stars over all.
"Worth the money, fun for all fans, great party game!", Recently, I started to become a TPIR Fan by noticing how clever and creative the games on the show has become. Add the fun with contestants, a host, and prizes, its why TPIR is still on CBS for 34 years.
You'll miss the comfort of interaction with Bob Barker, but considering that TPIR has not had any video game since a terrible 90 Commodor 64 game, this DVD came at the right time when DVD's are added to the board game (no computer needed).
The game is complete with 6 whiteboards, 4 markers to write down the total prices.
They couldn't put all 40+ games they have done, but I love these games: 5 Price Tags, Cliff Hangers, Danger Price, Golden Road, Grand Game, Lucky 7, Most Expensive, Pass The Buck, Plinko, Push Over, Safe Crackers, and Shell Game.
Also, you can bid on Contestant Row's Products, spin Showcase Showdown's wheel, and compete in the final round selecting multiple choice to be "closer than the actual retail price without going over!"
*Pro: Easy set up, still shots of real products, great 3D view of the game show set, fun games that anyone can play, host explains instructions, play any part of the show, add a few video clips from the show, and 3D views of these games! All the wonderful music, graphics, and models are from the show!
*Con: Can't control the speed of the wheel, Todd Newton's voice and some of the price results are displayed too fast, different annoucners are used (Rich Fields, Rod Rodey, and Burton Richardson), and I've heard from others about control function problems. Finally, Bob Barker's not in it, although they hired Todd Newton, a great replacement.
Overall, this can be taken to a party with a DVD player, and everyone can play it with no set up. Although it's the first version, remember that a DVD can only contain so much and they certainally put a lot of effort into this game! I'd rather play this type of game on a TV, than installing a PC Game that may even still stall, or play TPIR's complex board game where someone has to read all the instructions before hand and know how to set up the game pieces, taking a lot of time.
"Best DVD game ever", I just purchased the game and had tons of fun with this, it's like actually being on the game show itself, wist there could have been more games, but I think this will be a hit for them to make a second edition down the road.
