Well, Ludia updated the front page to included the coming soon "Hollywood Squares" game.... from those pics, it might model the H2 era of the show (Set and logo).
Click the last window on the left side of the flash screen and you're see!

Well, at least they got the 3x3 grid right.

It's just a concept rendering, not an actual screenshot.

I Hope this game might use the 1986-1989 Theme Music by Stormy Sacks.

I know, I just wanted to show where the project might be going (and looks like ludia is trying to match H2 close to the TV counterpart, which is good!)

However, we know that Ludia's strongpoint is graphics. There weak spots are well...everything else.

Point taken. Everytime people say "It'll be hard to foul this up", something happens. Here, though, I really can't see how they can logically foul this one up. It's Tic Tac Toe!

EDIT: I figured one out. The "Celebrity" picks an answer from a group of four, ala Ludia PYL, and THEN you agree or disagree.


It'd be nice if they could actually get Tom Bergeron to do the game's voice work. That guy who currently announces the Family Feud and Press Your Luck video games isn't exactly at the top of my list.

How much more would you be willing to pay to get Bergeron's voice?

Even more to the point, and lazier: you can win by default.

As would I with him.  Get the Ouija board and the psilocybin ready.  

When people talk about the failure of the MGHSH, Jon Bauman's name is often one of the first reasons cited.  But I'd argue that Mark Goodson pretty much missing the point of HS with his alterations to the format ranks right up there as one of the biggest problems.

You mean the fact that Mr. Goodson hated humor in his games? (which is one of the strongest parts of HS)

(I also cite Bauman as part of the failure....one of the worst hosts I've ever seen.)

[mrburns] excellent. [/mrburns]

Good start, Ludia. We know you can make it look pretty, but just stick to the blueprint this time. You might actually get me to buy one of your games now.
