Dirty Dancing Game revealed News
PC News by Robert Purchese
Codemasters Online Gaming has revealed it's working on the official Dirty Dancing game for PC.
It'll be some sort of casual puzzle action title from developer Say Design, and will apparently be in our stockings this Christmas. You see, this year marks the 20th anniversary of the iconic film, so everyone, particularly teary-eyed girls, are going bananas for it.
Unfortunately there's little more information than that, although film studio Lionsgate is confident the strong licence will make for an instant hit.
"Dirty Dancing delivers compelling subject matter that has all the tools to become an instant hit online," said Anne Parducci, executive vice president of marketing at Lionsgate. "The movie appeals to audiences of all ages and continues to win over new fans through increased exposure from the highly successful DVDs and multiple airings on cable.
"For two decades, girls and women have identified with Baby, and through this wonderful game from Codemasters, they will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in her world like never before."
Dirty Dancing first appeared back in 1987 and tells the story of a young lady who meets an experienced dance instructor and triggers an emotional roller coaster. It stars Jennifer Grey and Lord Patrick of Swayze and has sold more than 10 million DVDs to date.
Watch out for more information in the coming weeks. Or don't, and play something else instead. Like the spoons. Anything.

My god, what a horrible idea.
Surely it should be just a copy of DDR but with songs from DD in? |

Have they named the 29th May as some equivelant to the 1st of April or something? Or have I woken up in the twilight zone today??
First I hear theres going to be a Sims film, a King of Fighters film and now this? Kill me now, please. I dont want to live to see what comes next. "Emmerdale: The Game". Play as Jack Sugden, Homefarm Hero, in his struggle to quickly shear and feed his sheep, then nip down to the Woolie for a half-pint of bitter! Uses the Unreal engine!

Boardroom discussion:
Dev-1: So my missus won't shut the fuck up about the limited edition Dirty Dancing dvd collectors box set, bloody thing is going to cost a fortune... Dev-2: Money you say? Shit we got to get in on that cow, let's make a Dirty Dancing game! Dev-1: Do we have to? I mean that's more oestrogen than I really want to be exposed to.. Dev-2: Aw come-on, you wore a dress at the Christmas party! Dev-1: *sigh* Ok, we'll make a Dirty Dancing game, but I swear you're holding the press conference this time! |

Christ. I really don't envy the marketing minion that had to write THAT pitch line (I'm sure a quick toot on their meth pipe in the bogs made everything ok again though). |

It really IS April the First II.
- Piece of piss Politics exam that asks if NAFTA stands for North African Football and Tennis Association; - The Sims: The Mooovey announced; - Ewe Boll selling FarCry film role on ebay; and now this. I hereby declare today fundamentally stupid in all regards. So much for Kanji revision. |

I have never not wanted a game more than this. Hell, I'd even try that 50 cent game before this insta-shit game.
