Title: "Deal or no Deal" DVD game and more news
Post by: narzo on July 12, 2006, 02:55:31 AM
A nice look at the game plus the news that there's DVD versions of "Lets Make a Deal" and a second edition of "Family Feud" in the works.

Sounds like a fun DVD game to play.  Judging by the descriptions, simple controls & a play-along interactive format sure makes for a good party game if nothing else.  At $20, it sounds like a good bargain.  If I get it within the next couple weeks, I'll take it over to my nephew's apartment & challenge him to a DoND showdown.

TVshowsonDVD.com (http://\"http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/newsitem.cfm?NewsID=6021\") has box art (http://\"http://www.tvshowsondvd.net/graphics/news3/DealOrNoDeal_DVDGame.jpg\"), but they also link to a picture of Howie holding the box (http://\"http://www.flickr.com/photo_zoom.gne?id=187601494&size=m\") (larger size (http://\"http://www.flickr.com/photo_zoom.gne?id=187601494&size=o\")).... but it's DIFFERENT.  *gasp*
Wal-Mart.com (http://\"http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=4961000\") has a picture of a similar box to the first one.
Target.com (http://\"http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B000ETRERO.16._SCLZZZZZZZ_SS260_V52985705_.jpg\") has VERY DIFFERENT box art, with the cases, and an evil-looking Howie.

So, who knows?

What? No 8.5 out of 10 review? No grade? I've come to expect this from your titilating posts!

The main thing that interests me with this is, thanks to some people for investigating, either they just photoshoped a new chain up there to showcase the figures in a more condensed area, or $1,000,000 isn't the top prize anymore.  $1,000,000 should be across from $500 and $750,000 is missing.  A few checked, and the removed figures don't match to the $1,500,000 or $2,000,000 top prize board, which was identical to the one on the big box cover.  Everything should be cleared up when they start taping on the 19th.

I'm pretty sure boxes one and three are identical.

Also, I had hoped never to have the opportunity to count the number of pores on Howie Mandel's face. :o
