You gotta know Jack, right?

I know this is only about fifteen years past its sell-by date, but I am often surprised by how many people respond with blank stares when I mention the classic computer game You Don't Know Jack.

Says here the first incarnation of this way cool trivia game was released in 1995. The general knowledge version was followed shortly by sports, movies and TV editions.

YDKJ was originally a CD-ROM game, but the makers put it online here a few years ago, and even produced new weekly episodes. The one below is from April 2007. The website also sells the original CD-ROM versions.

It's a game show with a wise-ass host and lots of attitude. The questions are written in a tricky way that takes a little getting used to, but if you are not familiar with the game give it a try. It's a lot of fun.
