  • Summary: Activision's version of The Weakest Link attempts to capture every element of the popular British game show.
Score distribution:
  1. Positive: 1 out of 7
  2. Negative: 1 out of 7
  1. It's a great multiplayer game for parties, especially with those non-gamer types.
  2. But despite Robinson’s remarks, oodles of atmosphere and a decent enough multiplayer mode, compared to Millionaire in the console quiz show stakes, it still manages to be the weakest link. Goodbye!
  3. A little repetitive, but still amusing. [Jan 2002, p.88]
  4. One of those games you play with a non-gamer. You know, those weirdos who sit for hours in front of the TV and passively watch what's being broadcast. We've just got to help those missing links evolve a little.

    My brother and I managed to have a helluva lotta fun with this game, which in itself warrants a high score. However, the fact that the game managed to have it's classic British host propels it to a 10 for me at least. Expand

    I loved this game! Anne Robinson were just like in the show!

    I was not a fan of the gameshow, but I do like this game. The gameplay is deeper than I expected even in single player. The questions are challenging and after a less than stellar round, if you vote way off base on the weakest link, then you're more apt to make the walk of shame. This is a bargain bin must for fans of trivia games and shows. Expand
  4. The Weakest Link in video game form, fun in short bursts with friends or family but no real long term appeal.
