Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
You Don't Know JACK -- Get it for consoles, not PC. OP has more details.

I remember it fondly, but that could just be me as a child being an idiot.

Buy Issue One! >< Two! >< Three!
NEW! >< Four!
The game is 15 years old, and I still keep coming across things like this that I didn't know. God I can't wait!
We all loved just leaving the username blank and letting Cookie name us.
"All right, Player Two. I'm going to call you 'Poop Chute'.
Player Three, please don't be as retarded as Player Two."
They stopped updating awhile back. I guess this is why.
I loved that show.
Cause i love Cookie.
Cause i love YDKJ.
This is all the best news ever.
Yep, Paul Reubens was the host. As much as I love that guy, he's still no Cookie.
Cookie wasn't even the host in the first version of the game. He was the techie who took your name and info at the start. When he did start hosting, it was a rare case where people didn't complain that changing it made it worse.
Freaking fantastic. I laughed so hard i almost fucked up the entire Jack Attack.

There were two or three where I could see people not knowing (Wolverine, Beaker, and maybe the Yoga Instructor)
All I can remember is how absurd the show was, but other than that... I can't remember much.
I did used to play the game all the time as a youngin, though.

Gotta love every Cookie laced moment.
Abso-frickin-lutely. I have so many fond memories of playing this cramped around a keyboard with friends, and screwing them over not just by using the screw, but by smacking their hand, causing them to press their button :twisted:
Steam Profile: miserium
The lack of a PC version is a bit of a letdown, though, considering YDKJ's always primarily been for PC
also shameless self-plug but

What are you talking about?
They are releasing on 360, Ps3, wii, Ds, AND PC.
Oh, well then, okay.
Awesome.
I hope for:
1) Big Button Controller support
2) Regularly scheduled additional question content
Mr. Lick best bum
HANKEYBONE DOODLESNORFIN
BLAH DE BLAH BLAH BLAHBLAHMENT
Hankeybone. That is like the best gibberish ever.
I know, right?
I can't remember which one it was but there was one where the host goes "Hankeybone doodblesnorfin? What the hell? Oh no... nonono... please no." Then the 'Gibberish Question!' announcement plays out and the host is all "fine I guess we HAVE to do this..."
Also, I remember getting the demo for YDKJ1 on PC gamer WAAAAAY back in the day. There were only like 12 questions (3 question demo, but still multiple choices) and I managed to buzz in and correctly answer a question by typing in the answer (if you buzzed in early you had to type out the answer without knowing what the question was). The announcer was unimpressed, actually saying "Well that doesn't surprise me. How many times have you played this demo anyway?"
But... while playing the actual game a couple months later, that question came up and I managed to buzz in and type out the answer. But then the announcer was shocked saying "Wow. I'm uh, I'm speechless."
Plus loading up Jack 2 or 3 and browsing through the outtakes from the credit rolls. Also playing Jack1 on my hacked PS1 and doing the same.
it was The Ride
in that game a running joke was that all the hosts hated doing them
when it became nate's turn to host he flat at out refused to do gibberish more than once
the other big running joke was that buzz never got his turn to host
I remember that. He got to phone in ONE question for the last level.
Which sucked because I'm weird and Buzz was my favorite host.
this is obligatory

i love this game so much.
all told, there hasn't been a host I didn't like
though admittedly I got a little burned out on Schmitty after he hosted L!F!F!, vol five, and vol six all in a row
bwahahahahahaahah this is so great.
I'm kinda bummed that actually didn't try that in the game, for some reason, because it it seems obvious in retrospect.
ahahahaha
I have so many incredible memories of playing game after game of You Don't Know Jack with my best friend during middle school. Talk about sharp writing, I hope the original announcer comes back.
What sold me on You Don't Know Jack is how much content there was on one single CD. I remember we played for months and still got new questions and segments. I don't remember the specifics, but I do remember we laughed for a good ten minutes about how, after maybe 3 months of play, we randomly got this one segment, which we never saw again, where the announcer called up some random dude and had him make up a question on the spot.
I could see this becoming huge.
Followed up with the Celebrity Collect Call in YDKJ 2.
