The Bottom Line

The whole point of The Guy Game is to answer enough questions correct in order to see some bare breasts. Last I checked there was a little thing called "the internet" that let you see boobs all you want and you didn't have to pay $40. The Guy Game is tasteless and pointless and not really necessary in today's world. Wait for the price to drop (I'd give it two months, tops), rent it, or better yet, avoid it entirely.

Pros

  • College guys will love it
  • Good party game

Cons

  • Pointless nudity
  • Boring trivia
  • Takes way too freaking long to play through

Description

  • If you are the intended consumer - males age 18-25 - you'll enjoy it.
  • Remarkably fun to play with a group.
  • You feel dirty playing this game. Drunken spring break girls should be shunned, not celebrated.
  • The trivia isn't all that great. Guessing what the dumb girls will say is boring.
  • You have to play for 40 minutes to maybe see bare breasts. Boring.
  • This game simply takes way too freaking wrong to play through for the scant rewards it offers.

Guide Review - The Guy Game

Remember that episode of The Simpsons where they are at a NASCAR race and then the cheerleaders come out and say "Ane now, here's something for the guys!" and Homer says "Finally ...". Well, that joke definitely applies here. The videogame industry is created almost entirely by and for guys. It is sad, but true at this point. We have violent games all over the place, the Dead or Alive girls bouncing and giggling, and nearly every game features a scantily clad woman. We don't need a special "Guy Game" because the entire industry is filled with guy games. And almost all of them are more tastefully done and much better products than The Guy Game.

In The Guy Game, there are four rounds of play. The first round sees you answering questions and then guessing if the spring break girls on video get the answer right. If the girl answers wrong, she has to flash her boobs. The second round is minigames consisting of skeeball and a couple of other boring wastes of time. The third round has you guessing which wrong answer the drunken girl will give. And the fourth round is a physical challenge where the girls compete in races and you bet on which one wins. You don't see any nudity until you answer enough questions right to fill a special meter. It takes about 40 minutes before you see any bare boobs. Not good when that is the only attraction. The game is boring and unless you are 12, seeing "naked boobies" isn't worth the trouble.

There is nothing here to warrant a purchase. Avoid it.
