And yet you can play for things like "Make My Bed"? So ... if the last two items on the board are "Make My Bed" and "Walk the Dog", what is the banker's offer, I wonder?

Make out with the dog.

You, sir, are going to hell for that.

Well played.

I'm not holding out any hope that the 26 models are going to look anything like the actual 26 models on the show. This poor #8 woman looks like one of those freaks in "The Sims" that likes to wear women's clothing and burn down the house by setting the toaster too high.

The nbcuniversalstore.com site has the game listed, and also mentions that copies purchased through them will have something extra, exclusive on them.

You know, what an interesting idea for a game that would be. Make a "Deal or No Deal" expansion pack for The Sims in which you control a model. Imagine the possibilies. Howie tells her to "open the case" and she just babbles back nonsensically.

There's some more screenshots on the Global Star site. As mentioned before they do have some things down pat like the briefcase fonts and the set which looks fantastic. However somehow they didn't do the same with the on-screen graphics which is a little disappointing. Hopefully they'll get the gameplay, music, and sound effects right which should make for a great game.

Hopefully this game will deploy and play better than the dvd version...

The models....look frightening.

Legit BUMP here...

Sam, over on the BigJonPCGames forum purchased the game and put some screengrabs up at:

To answer (I believe) Lemon's question, by the looks of one of the screenshots, you WILL be able to make any custom board.

It certainly looks that way, anyhow, although I wouldn't call that absolutely conclusive proof.

I wonder if licensing the DoND format for these games gets you access to the formula for bank offers.

The extra content the NBC store version has is additional mini-games (5 to go along with the 5 in the normal game)

Incorrect. It's 5 addditonal puzzles for a 'picture puzzle-slider' minigame. Plus, if you don't have the NBC version, and want the pictures anyway, just type 'bigdeal' at the main menu.

As for the game, it's not bad. It's fairly flashy for being nothing but layered pre-rendered Bink files, and you can have good customization over what's in the cases. The only thing that sucks is the On-Screen graphics. Too bad they couldn't match the TV show. It's got some interesting two-player modes, and the mini-games have really nothing to do with DoND.

Overall, not bad (for an official game), and it's years better than the craptacular Family Feud. I picked it up for $20 at Best Buy.

I was in Toys R Us the other day, and they have the special NBC store versions available; or at least they are labeled that way!
