We received this game for Christmas last year and we love it. Whenever we mention playing it when we have people over everyone jumps at the chance. Sometimes people come over just to play! We have been playing it for a year now and we are seeing some of the same questions. We're waiting on some kind of upgrade to the game or another version. It is easier than "You don't know Jack", which makes it more fun to play with people of different degrees of knowledge. I highly recommend this game to anyone who enjoys an exciting and rowdy game for parties or just for something to do when you are bored.

Where are all the good questions?

When I first bought this game I was thrilled. I've always really liked the board game and I thought it would be a great idea to be able to play by myself. I must confess, that when I get a new game I like, I sit down and play for hours. And for the first few days I had this game I loved it. But after a very short time I started getting the same questions over and over again. And the questions themselves are not nearly as good as on the board game, they're either categories I know nothing about or I'm able to get all the answers too easily. And the host really, really annoys me, sometimes I think he's downright offensive. I wish you could turn him off like you do the commercials. On the positive side though, I like the different games within the game, especially Mondo Burst, and only having to type the first three letters is an excellent idea. However,I wouldn't recommend buying this game unless you can find it at a clearance sale.

entertaining

Really fun & makes you think. Good for teaching typing. Only bad thing I could say, is questions get repetitious and you need another version.

Pretty disappointing

I really had expected more from this game. While it's enjoyable on some levels, the questions are often ridiculous - either totally random and impossible to answer or a litle too basic. And some of the graphics and such are really annoying. It's basically simply an 'all right' game - for anyone interested in challenging, stimulating word games I would recommend... something else.

A NEED TO UPGRADE

I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR AN UPGRADED VERSION OF THE OUTBURST
IT DOESN'T WORK WELL WITH WINDOWS XP. ARE YOU PLANNING TO UPGRADE THIS WONDERFUL GAME? IT WOULD BE WORTH IT!!!!

There are 7 of us that range in age from 15 to 40. We all enjoy playing the game. Typically, we will play as a single player and we will all assist the typist with answers. When the older teenagers (16-17 year-olds) have friends over, they too like to play this way. The game is educational and entertaining.

What a great party game.

Whenever we have a party people ask us to bring out outburst. We break into teams then the real fun begins. This game is enjoyed by people of all ages. Topics covered are very entertaining.

I think Outburt is an awesome game. My cousin has it and Ialways play it at her house. It was made by the same people whocreated 'You Don't Know Jack,' but Outbust, unlike Jack, gives you questions about stuff you know about, and itsn't 100% all-out disgusting.

Your probably asked why I gave this awesome game a '3' if I love it so much. I'll explain. I wish I could get my self a copy, but Hasbro doesn't make a version for Mac. (...)If Outburst, the best game I've ever played, had a Mac version, I would give it a 10+.(...)

AWESOME

Great Great game, I have had it for a year and I still continue to play it. It is really fun to play on the internet. I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys family feud, because it is a lot like that. Much better than You Dont Know Jack!
