Saw this in K-Mart earlier today and I couldn't find it on Amazon, but here's a link that describes the game:

Looks interesting enough..though it seems more like "Name that Video".  Outside my musical interests, but I'm sure enough people will be interested.

*cough* 80's?!?!?!

Oh, SO mine.

(What the hell is Pass The Bomb doing in there, tho? I played that five years ago, at my last apartment. And what's so "ultra" about that Tangoes set, which, incidentally, I owned when I was still living in California SEVEN years ago...)

I actually wouldn't mind seeing the setup. I think I could actually do OK with an 80s version of NTT. Looks decent enough. Would love to see an actual NTT revival, but I digress...

First the TPIR DVD is out(or soon to be), now this.  What's next?

I don't mind an 80's version, but I also would like to see a 70's version pop up.

Looking at the endless games site, there appears to possibly a Password DVD game in the works.  When you hover over new games the guy is holding a box of a Password DVD game.  Oh, I hope!

Saturday I saw a Family Feud DVD game at a Barnes and Noble in Skokie Il.

Snap that up... there aren't many copies of that game out there. Best. Game. Ever. Might want to put it on eBay and make a mint...

Is it really that hard to find?  I've seen it at Barnes and Noble, K-Mart, Circuit City, and several other retailers.

...or is my Sarcasm Detector on the fritz again?

As one of the holders of the Sarcasm Detector patent, you of all people should know the answer to the latter!

Just because my picture's on the box doesn't mean I know a damn thing about how the product works. :-P

Actually, more athletes play EA Sports games than you would think. Each of the Dallas Mavericks have a PS2 and monitor built into their lockers. I would guess they played NBA Live once or twice.

I dunno if I'd want the DVD game, but that Celtic chess game looked interesting.  I keep a replica of a museum piece variation on it on my office desk -- quite the conversation piece.

That's not to say the games they release are subpar in terms of quality.  Or address the point they don't like competition so they pay off sports leagues to make them the sole maker.  (Knocked Papyrus out of NASCAR...knocked Sega/TakeTwo out of the NFL....etc).

No, it's not. Can we get you some more tinfoil for your hat?
