3 new games available on gamesnet,seems particularly appropriate that heads are juxtaposed with bollocks.
afraid totally underwhelmed by these three offerings hence information is sketchy.
head to head- you play against another 'player' but if you get through to the prize round you get little
never mind the bollocks- similar to the old top of the pops with bonuses progressing through the rounds with £10 jackpot.Runner up position is £5.
world cup finals,from the same stable as caesars palace and tooled up.The team that make these are suffering from the David Bowie phenomena ie that the latest offering is shittier than the last.Caesars Palace enjoyable not necessarily profitable,tooled up bugged and hard through quite entertaining,world cup dirge,perhaps it has to fill up.

I would say that to me the pop music game is the best but that isnt saying much.games have a cheap and nasty feel.

After seeing these for the first time on a Gamesnet yesterday, I find myself in the somewhat odd position of agreeing with just about every word of that, cool (apart from Caesar's not being profitable - it's a game where it's easy to tell when NOT to play).

Head to Head is a direct copy of the ill-fated ITV show 'Duel' that was on during prime time a couple of years ago (anyone remember it? - thought not!). The questions are graded sensibly and it seems to play fair in terms of your opponent's ability to get the questions right. So you qualify for the end game and win ... A FREE GAME. You think that must be a one-off so you persevere and win ... £1.20. You try a third time and win ... £1.30. Utter rubbish.

World Cup Finals is as cool notes very obviously Libra Games' next attempt to replicate the success of Caesar's. However it seems to be installed in ultrahard mode and would take something like 100 questions or skill games (of increasing difficulty) to get the JP. I cannot see this one ever appealing to Joe Public and hence ever getting any easier.

Never Mind the Buzzcocks (as I think it's called) is just very dull. It's the sort of game that is set up to make winning £1 relatively easy but to then always shut up shop after that.

I'd be amazed to see any of these being successes.

I refer you to my earlier answer Mr Satis with the emphasis on not neccesarily not not! 'Caesars Palace enjoyable not necessarily profitable'

In which case yours was not not a not unfair comment. Possibly...
