Herm, come to think of it, I’ve never seen a repeat film clip. I haven’t played it obsessively, but there have to be at least 25+ games logged with a various mix and match of players/profiles and I don’t recall any. Plenty of clips of old flicks that I can’t even name, but no double ups.

When you say no repeats, the film clips still repeat often though, right?

On the board game version, you get the same film clips over and over again (Hello, CLOSE ENCOUNTERS, so nice to see you again) but the questions they ask about them are less likely to be the same.

the board game version gets repetitive after a while.

Botched was… not good. The beginning showed promise, but then the wheels flew right the fuck off. Gave up immediately after things degraded into fart jokes.

Saw it on Netflix’s Watch Instantly (via vmcNetflix on the 360), so I didn’t even need a disc. ;^)

It’s fun and I like that it tracks what questions have been asked to what players, so repetition isn’t just minimized, it is non-existent. Never actually played the board game version, but I imagine it is no better or worse. But if you want to pad a gamerscore, man oh man, Scene-It is your best friend. The achievements never end in that friggin thing.

How was Botched? I really need to re-activate my Netflix and, ya know, not hold movies for months and months at a time.

I saw you online playing that. Tempting pickup, but I already have the boardgame version.

Gave up playing games and watched Botched and Class of Nuke ‘Em High instead. Can you guess which film was better?

Yeah, well, last night in Manassas, Virginia I got drunk and went undefeated in Scene-It on the 360 for 3 hours. I’m pretttttty sure my night tops yours.
