More fun than the board game!

You can play by the traditional board game rules under the Classic Game option, or select Enhanced Game for a fun, new twist! Create your own name, select character and vehicle, and try to make (and keep) the most money to win the game. In the Enhanced version, instead of collecting life tiles when you land on a life square you get a chance to play one of several games to win big money - and there is a revenge feature that lets you choose to collect your winnings (or even your salary)from any other player!

One of the BEST games that I have EVER played! A total blast and family game!! I love it!!

This is the best game! WAY more fun than the board game! It is so fun to see what your kids look like and to start a family get a career and to just play it!!! If you don't already have it, I strongly recommend it. If it went over 5 stars I'd give it a million. I have only played the computer game though. The computer game is a family game and totally F.U.N! So, if u like fun games-get this! I'm sure they're all equally fun. I'm trying to get one right now (: It's also for all ages.

loads of laughs

This game is like the board game, but way more exciting, you can play against the computer or against your friends. If you like life you will like this game, you have to play for a little while, but it's worth it, and there are 2 different modes you can play in. Oh I wouldn't get rid of this game EVER.

Based on the Classic Board Game!

Rated "E" for "Everyone". Toddlers ages 2 and under may be too young to understand and participate in this game, but they may enjoy pretending to play along with a nonfunctional/unplugged controller! A slow game - not good for those who fall asleep easily. I really enjoy this video game version of the board game - no one even has to be the banker!

Fun for awhile but little replay value

Growing up in the 70's the game of life boardgame was my favorite. My friends and I would play for hours, driving our little car around the 3 dimensional track and waiting for the chance to put our "children" pegs in the car (always biting the bottom off to make them shorter than the parents!). I was really looking forward to playing the PC version, but was kind of disappointed because the very things that make the boardgame fun are not present in the PC version. The biggest flaw is that you can't really see the entire board view, so you have no idea what squares are coming up. Half the fun of the boardgame is the satisfying sound of the wheel whirring, while you call out "come on six!", only to be disappointed when you land on 5. The graphics are amusing, and the game does have some entertainment value, but it just doesn't recapture the old board game.

LUV THAT GAME

I had this game for a couple years now and is still a favorite. Everytime my 8 year old neice comes over, she always wants to play it. You can have from 1-6 people playing at one time and choice from the classic game or the enhanched game (both are fun). Bottom line- it's a great game!

The best game I've played so far

I liked this game because I like the way the people look, it's really funny. You can play it by yourself with a computer player or with your friends. My favorite part of the game is when you get married and have a baby and the expression of the baby is the same as the mom or the dad!! They all look alike! I've had the game for awhile and still enjoy playing it--if my mom will let me play it everyday, I would!

This game rocks

Play The Game of Life on Playstation. It's lots of fun, and you can play with just a few friends, or your whole family can join in, its good for all age levels. Buy this game now, cause you'll regret it later if you don't.
