A new
Xbox Live Arcade release is upon us, brothers and sisters. This vile temptation goes by the name of
Wits and Wagers and it tempts our youth to succumb to the terrible sin of
gambling. True, the abomination may be disguised as a simple trivia game, but close inspection reveals that the only way to win is to
bet on the winning answer. Truly it is an evil game, and one that you should spurn as you would spurn a rabid dog.
But seriously, folks,
Wits and Wagers is a trivia game and it's available now for 800 Microsoft points. Oh, and
Scene-It owners take note: it features support for the Big Button controller. It also make rather ... interesting use of the Vision camera. Go grab the trial version and see what you think.

Most of your readers will be too busy picking up prostitutes and shooting people.

I enjoyed the trial. I like Scene It, but something new is needed. I will be grabbing the full version soon.

I love the board game this is based upon. Sure hope it translates well to the Xbox.

You might be interested to know that Wits & Wagers was originally a board game that went nationwide at Target in 2007. It won more industry awards than any other party game in history, which is why it is coming out on the Xbox. A preliminary contract has also been signed to turn Wits & Wagers into a TV game show.
No shooting people or hot coffee "incidents", but there is lots of GAMBLING and SMACK TALK! (We try)

How can anyone buy this game. It doesn't even have the right information even in the Trial version. The game states the the Mississippi River is the longest river in the U.S. Huh Wrong!!!! The Missouri River is the longest
