Great Fun! - Check out the video review
Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R2CMVS0U3ISA7N I love my Say What. I leave it out on the coffee table and get a quick game or two when I have a few minutes, or when I'm taking a break from working. When I have guests over its a fun conversation starter, or a good distraction when there is no conversation! Everyone always wants to play a few rounds.

300 Phrases is suprisingly deep, and it's just as fun (or more fun!) to watch as it is to play, kind of like a Nintendo Wii.

I'm a fan of board games, but they can sometimes take too long. "Say What" is great if you can't commit a lot of time and just want something casual for a few minutes up to a half hour or so.

The plastic balls are sturdy and I haven't had any problems yet. I've had it for over a month and I'm still on my first set of 4 AA batteries.

It really is great for grown-ups and kids. There are references from the 1980s up to today, and even if a little kid doesn't know the phrase, they still figure it out through context. A bit of "Back seat driving" makes for a fun group atmosphere.

Highly recommended.

Love it!
Finally a game for us pop culture people. My son had never heard the saying "the best part of waking up is Folgers in your cup", but he laughed when I couldn't unscramble "a scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me." Great fun with a group or on your own. Some real brain exercise.

Cool Concept, Few Flaws
I saw a user's video and was impressed so I purchased this game. While the concept is cool, the game has a few flaws that I'd like to point out...

Difficulty:
For adults, the game is just too easy, especially if you have a good short-term memory and are good with pop culture. It gets boring after just a few games, even on the harder settings. However, the game was too hard for my 8-year-old. She isn't familiar with most of the pop culture the game referenced. For my 12-year-old, it wasn't stimulating enough and he was quickly bored.

Gameplay:
The gameplay is fun overall but there are a few annoying things. First, there's no way to quickly turn off the game (that I know of anyway). Secondly, even if you have the balls in the correct order when the buzzer ends, it's not counted as correct simply because you didn't have time to push the button. Third, the phrases don't seem to be ranked in difficulty as the time/amount of guesses decreases. Either they should get easier, since you have less time, or they should be harder to challenge you. Lastly, the game should have more rounds, or at least allow you to select how many rounds you want to play.

Suggestions:
It would be nice if a player could select a category, like animated movies. That would help with the gameplay for smaller children.

Overall, it's a fun game to play if you want to kill a few minutes. It's not a game you can play for an hour or more, unless you're easily amused.
