"The O.C." to become a mobile video game

The O.C. to become a game. Hopefully snogging is still allowed by the ESRB.You can pretty much expect just about any popular television show or big-budget movie to be closely followed by a video game of the same name, but what sort of gameplay can be expected to come out of a soap opera about narcissistic teenagers? What button combination approximates "become jealous and totally diss Marissa behind her back while pretending you're not an alcoholic"?

We can't see this title retaining any of the wit or writing that has made the show a success, but we're open to being surprised. Maybe this is the secret to enticing that coveted female demographic to try gaming.
