For those of you who are interested, the upcoming The Price is Right games are discounted on Amazon already. The Wii version's MSRP is $40 but they're pre-ordering it for $33, and the DS one is usually $30 but they're pre-ordering it for $23. They just changed these prices some time this evening.

lol no thank you

[PikaPichu]

From what I've read in the previews, it'll feature Rich Fields doing his job as the announcer but it won't feature Bob Barker or Drew Carry, unless they're in the classic video footage the game has. I hope it turns out to be a fun party game.

Drew Carey, I bid $1.01

Yikes, I watched the video and that looks like a train wreck. No crowd excitement (the wheel sounds with no crowds is just eerie, and the crowd on the come on down was oddly quiet) and the graphics looked really cheap. Plus, all indications are that not all the games are in there, which is unacceptable.

I can't see how this could be any good.

Wow The Wii is going downhill fast I see nothing I want for it the rest of this year NOT ONE Thing.

[n00bie]

So just because you see nothing you want, it's going downhill. Gotcha. I better sell mine fast.

[trunks982]

come on doooooown!

[lilboo]

Ideally, this could be a very fun game for the Wii. Damnit, UbiSoft.

I watched the DS video on amazon, it didn't turn me off the game. Perhaps too much wishful thinking on my part or I've learned to not expect much from licensed games.

My wife loves these types of games. She has a b-day coming up in Sept too. I'm not exactly sure which version to get though.

I really have an odd desire to pick this up...when it's 20 bucks in a bargain bin.

Casual gamers rejoice.

No Bob Barker = No Buys

[guyjr]

No Bob Barker, ok... No Drew Carey, meh, I'll live.

No BARKER'S BEAUTIES, NO $ALE

bomp bomp, bom booom... raaaaam (that classic TPIR "fail" sound... you had to be there).

[YoshiFan1]

I'll pick this up when I can get it for under $15

[xycury]

Drew Carey, I bid $1.01

no no... it's...

I bid .99

This game can't be fun.......

[Fishercat]

As has been said, this could be really fun for the Wii. Make it a party game, put it with an extensive online system (maybe put yourself in a queue to be called on down and play against real people, let your winnings be tracked over time). The motion controls already in for stuff like Hole in One and the Wheel make perfect sense.

However, it looks pretty clear that Ubi half-assed this one to me, and I hope to be proven wrong.

[CrimsonPaw]

Hopefully Nintendo's next console won't be so full of shitty games. Last year I picked up about 5 games for it, this year .... 0.

[Masterkyo]

It should be MSRP $19.99 instead $39.99 for wii version. This game will drop fast

+1, at $33 it seems a bit high but when it gets in the bargain bin I will definitely consider it.

[JolietJake]

The price is wrong, bitch.

To be fair to UbiSoft (and I have smacked them numerous times in the past), The Price Is Right is a Wii port of a PC game. I think UbiSoft is just publishing this one and haven't done any of the development work, actually.

(So all the people grousing about "Wii casual gaming" should redirect their ire at the PC, mmkay? )

So really we're back to just UbiSoft sucking hard like always....

Comes full circle....

If I cut-and-paste someone else's post that (presumably) doesn't receive an infraction, it is trolling/disruptive posting? After all, I'm just mostly agreeing.
