Electric Playground

Worth getting for the bizarre "commercials" that play when the credits roll, or when you're in the network waiting area looking for opponents.

IGN

The You Don't Know Jack series has a good rep for a reason; it has high quality sound, graphics (even if they are simple) and a great sense of humor. Plus you get free microwavable popcorn in the box.

All Game Guide

Hip, smart and fun. Whether you play alone or with friends, it's a game any quiz-show lover should add to his or her collection.

CNET Gamecenter

The questions are clever and the banter from the game's host continues to be deliciously sarcastic. Those features, combined with an excellent Online Play mode, will surely make this a must-grab for any YDKJ fan.

GameZone

Gather the friends and pop in this program for a ride that will have you snickering, sneering, confused, feeling inept and laughing. YDKJ 5th Dementia is adult humor at its irreverent best.

GameSpot

An excellent party game, but unlike its predecessors, its online play component also makes it ideal even when other people aren't at home.

Happy Puppy

It's just a matter of personal preference, but I'll take Alex Trebek over the You Don't Know Jack pinhead any day. At least the free bag of microwave popcorn that comes with the game was good.

If you can pick it up second-hand or for a markdown on the retail cost, you certainly won't regret it.

Mike E. gave it a 10:
This game is great if you play it wih a bunch of friends and use one of these things...

Kathy gave it a 10:
Great Game! I love it :)

Tim G. gave it a 10:
I have every single one, and this is my favorite. Not only can I play at my house with friends, I can meet them online when we don't want to move our lazy asses!

Christopher S. gave it a 9:
I'm very glad that this YDKJ has online access, but you may find your opponents winning because they've "played this episode already. The bug out is, in my opinion, a masterpiece, and the only reason I'm forced to give this a nine is because, sigh, they idn't make it so that you could CHOOSE the catagories. Overall, the sound was magnificent, and the addition of pictures given to players was hilarious. So, In short, most teens should have a lot of fun with this irreverent trivia explosion. And, if you don't chow down on the popcorn package at the bottom of the bag!
