Didn't have any problems with freezing or anything, as mentioned by a previous reviewer. However, this game is not in any way entertaining. I love the show and couldn't wait to play the game, but it was a big let down. I played this game for about 2 hours and got completely bored with it. There isn't any real challenge to this game. You follow their goals and cannot proceed until you do what they want. Completely disappointed.
Don't buy this game.... May 4, 2008

I purchased this game yesterday. I enjoy watching Desperate Housewives and like playing video/pc games. It was on clearance at BJ's for $4.10, so I figured, why not? I tried to run the game unsuccessfully MANY times on my PC. I used all of the techniques to trouble shoot the problem, but nothing worked. It is having trouble with the DirectX. I checked the version and it should work with the game, but does not. It was only $4.10 wasted, but a disappointment. In case anyone else has the same PC, it is a Dell Dimension 3000.
Very fun and addictive, but be aware there are bugs February 24, 2008

I got this game used for $5, so I feel I really got my money's worth. The game is extremely fun and addictive. I don't even watch the show, but now I want to.
The problem is I literally had to restart my computer every time I wanted to play, and often in the middle of playing it would start acting odd and occasionally just lock up. My computer exceeds ALL of the minimum requirements and I have a compatible video card (GeForce 7800 GTX), so that's not the problem. Just be aware this can be a buggy, unstable game and it may not make a difference how powerful your computer is. I have been able to play games that are much bigger resource hogs with everything turned up to the max but this one just didn't run well.
