Canadian new-media producer Ludia Inc. will soon come down the aisle with a video game based on TV game show "The Price Is Right," to be developed in partnership with TV producer FremantleMedia.
As FremantleMedia searches for Bob Barker's replacement as host of the show, Montreal-based Ludia on Monday said it has been tapped to produce a "Price Is Right" game that will bow on a host of PC platforms in December.
The video game, to be developed as part of a multiyear, exclusive agreement between Ludia and FremantleMedia, will include elements from the long-running TV game show, including the opening, "Come on Down," the spinning of the wheel and the final Showcase Showdown.
Prices and prizes in the video game will be based on real-world merchandise, enabling product placement opportunities.
Of course it will probably suck but who hasn't wanted to have their very own Showcase Showdown??

I know Bob Barker is retired, but if he's not in the game, count me out.
