Desperate Housewives game

Coming to PC this year.

Buena Vista has announced that a new PC game based on award-winning and not very good TV drama Desperate Housewives is currently in development.

You'll take on the role of a new housewife who moves into Wisteria Lane, and you'll be tasked with uncovering all manner of dirty secrets about your neighbours, including the blonde one, the ginger one, the one off that Elvive advert and Lois Lane.

Brenda Strong, who plays dead housewife Mary Alice Young in the series, will appear in the game, presumably doing the same boring old monologues.

Desperate Housewives is being developed by Liquid Entertainment, the studio behind PC RTS Dragonshard. It's down for a "fall" launch in the States, so expect a European release in time for Christmas.
