Rumor: EA bringing stars of "The Hills" to video game
Not many details were spilled on what Pratt called the "top-secret" game, but he did mention to US Magazine that the game would let players work against the popular pair if they want to. "You can even torture me," Pratt said in a quote sure to excite reality-TV-haters everywhere.
Pratt expects the game to come out in two versions -- "the adult version and the one for minors" -- around Christmas 2009. And really, if you can't trust reality TV stars for your video game release dates, who can you trust?

I don't watch MTV either, but you'd have to be living in a closet to never have heard of this show. Nicely done!
naxe @ Feb 22nd 2008 12:16PM

........Oh well.
Flame Hate not WAR!

Ive never seen a single ad for it nor have i heard anyone talk about it. And i watch TV like everyday.
upz @ Feb 22nd 2008 12:31PM
Yes, I've seen it. Yes, I am ashamed.
FrankTheCrank @ Feb 22nd 2008 12:35PM
I for one am glad I don't know who these two dolts are.
They look like a couple of saps.
NATO_Duke @ Feb 22nd 2008 12:50PM
I have never heard of the show or the people, but if its a reality show, with what appear to be twits, then why would that make a game we want? I just don't get it.

The only way to make this news better? To have Tiger Electronics hold a press release stating they will bundle it with the Pimp My Ride game for the Game.com 2.0.

"Pratt expects the game to come out in two versions "
Well that's two versions too many.

NATO_Duke @ Feb 22nd 2008 12:52PM
Those are pretty damn funny.
rTwelve @ Feb 22nd 2008 12:27PM
Let us hope you will never need to use those article tags again....

It's also available (and appropriate) to use it for Jack Th... Lord Voldemort.

If there were ever a time when I would actually use this term, it would be right now. That guy is the definition of a DOUCHE BAG.
MTV has turned into utter crap...
RoboChamp @ Feb 22nd 2008 12:32PM
Why.. why does their picture make me bitter all of the sudden..?
Gerwurztraminer @ Feb 22nd 2008 12:34PM
Isn't a Virtual Reality Show a little moronic, er uh, oxymoronic?
Anni @ Feb 22nd 2008 12:45PM
I hope you can see my rage, EA, because I'm doing it as hard as I can.

It's basically a script-creating tool that tells you what to do every day; comes bundled with a camera, too.
I'm surprised this news only just broke though, Paris Hilton's been testing it for years.
RudyHuxtable @ Feb 22nd 2008 12:46PM
OMFG this will be the greatest game since "Big Rigs: Over the Open Road!"
Seattle Yonkers @ Feb 22nd 2008 1:16PM
Seriously, who would buy this?
Yes, I've seen the show, yes it is as awful as you think it would be.
But honestly, it's a ratings-grabber for MTV, but the demographic would have to be like 14 year old girls. Correct me if I'm wrong, but not many 14 year old girls own Xbox 360s.
I think they'll be hard pressed to find an suitable gaming audience for this one.
Benny @ Feb 22nd 2008 1:31PM
I think they're banking on the 40-year old guys who pretend to be 14-year old girls in chat rooms. The have to watch The Hills for like, y'know, research.
Kristof @ Feb 22nd 2008 1:37PM
I'm not sure where it says "for Xbox 360" ... but kudos for you for getting inside info.
If anything, this would be a DS game probably. Maybe Wii.
We're talking casual game market for watchers of this show.
Radio Killed The Video Star @ Feb 22nd 2008 1:37PM
I'm i the only one that's tired of seeing a bunch of Caucasian blondes (Male or Female) on T.V. talking about nothing important?
Because everytime i turn the channel to MTV or MTV2. That's all i see. It never changes.
baby sea tuna @ Feb 22nd 2008 1:54PM
Yeah, the TVs at my gym are constantly tuned to MTV and it's always either the Master Race or a bunch of Jersey Guidos and their fake-tanned, fake-titted hoes.
rTwelve @ Feb 22nd 2008 8:29PM
shit was SO cash
Edog Lost @ Feb 22nd 2008 1:50PM
can you please take this post down. I don't want to look at their faces anymore.
Benny @ Feb 22nd 2008 1:59PM
Who's looking at faces?
