Family Feud: 2010 Edition - Nintendo Wii

I bought this game for $40.00 for a christmas gift for my wife. As we were playing it one of questions was something like " Name a U.S. city where you expect nice weather." I won the buzzer round and my answer was "San Diego" so I typed in "San Di" and it did not recognize my answer so it did not give San Diego as one of the four quick picks to answer. I continued finishing typing it out which is one of the features you can do and I hit the check mark to answer and I was given a strike so I did not get to continue. As my mife answered most of the answers and finally striked out I was given a chance to steal and got a wrong answer. Well low and behold guess what the number one answer was? Yeap you guessed it "San Diego" just as I tried to answer and exactly how I typed it. I was a little upset to say that I lost the round over that. A few days later we were playing again and the same thing happened with the word "Merry-Go-Round" as one of the four quick picks however it gave a strike as a bad answer and when the round was over and gave the remaining answers one of them came up "Merry Go Round". Needless to say if your the type of person that angers easily over game flaws like this then you DO NOT WANT this game. I wish it had a QWERTY style option as to type your answers to make it a little easier and quicker for people who like that better than the letters in alphabetical order. In my opinion with the frustration of these two main areas I would expect to pay about $20.00.. If your the type of person that is passive and it doesn't bother you to be cheated out of your win and just want to have some good fun playing a game then this game might be for you. With the minor flaws and setting my frustration aside this is the only reason I would recomend this game to a friend but I would tell them to hold out until the price drops to about $20.00 before you do.

Bought this game for Christmas for the family. Played with ages from 14-70. Everyone loved this game & we played for several hours because we were having so much fun. Unlike the previous review. Setup was easy and only took a couple minutes to create Avitar. My only negative comment is how you answer questions in the game. You must type in each letter by pointing the remote at each individual letter. However, as you type words start to appear on the screen and you can choose from those answers. Every time the word someone was typing would appear. In the final roud where only 2 people answer questtions for the BIG money. After the first person answers, the second person is able to see what the first one answered. Wished first person's answers were covered up, like in the real game. Loved this game - great Fun!

The game is fun although it was sometimes some questions were too challenging for my 7 yr old. At times I had problems when selecting the correct letter. Hard to maneuver with the remote. I don't think this was my remote's fault as fresh batteries had been inserted. The hints that appear are helpful when you select a letter. I would recommend the game for those that like the tv version.

When you click on the suggested word that is what is entered as your answer, however if you are giving a multi word answer then you must type it out. You can't click on the suggested word and then spell out another. However they give you enough time that you can type it all out. It's family feud, what's not to love?

I do like game show video games. Family Feud is an average game but the important thing is that you can have a night of good family gaming. This what I believe is the main point in this game. Plenty of time to answer the Fast Money questions but when answering the standard round questions it seems that you have to use the answers provided. One misspelled word and you are screwed. This also goes for Fast Money. Also in Fast Money you must send your chosen partner into another room while you answer the questions. You must pause the game and then hope your partner is ready because the questions come up fast. Recommended but you may want to pick other games like this to increase interest. (Ex. Price is Right, Press Your Luck)

the sale price was good, i would not have bought this at regular price. the surveys are good. the graphics look like something off an old nintendo. not realistic, very cartoonish.

My friend and I had a really hard time setting this up. It would not easily let us choose two players. Could be my friend's Wii, but not sure. Setting up the Avatars were not easy either. Took forever to get it right, as it kept going back to my friend's avatar when I was trying to create mine. I would have preferred to use the Wimis we already created. I hope your name is not longer than 6 characters because that is all you are allowed to input. Your name is not even reflected in the background like the TV show used to show so not even sure why they even bother asking for your name. I imagine it would be more fun if you have more than 4 people playing, but with two we were quite board after a while. Game froze on us three times and we had to start over again. Not a horrible game, but certainly NOT worth the price!

The game is great overall, however, it is a little difficut to answer the questions using a remote. There needs to be a keyboard to type in the answers.
