Scene It? Box Office Smash lands in retail Oct. 28

by Ross Miller { Oct 7th 2008 at 1:30PM }

Microsoft has announced that Scene It! Box Office Smash will be hitting retail on October 28, which will likely serve as a saving grace for the Joystiq staffers who had no idea what else to do for Halloween. The game will cost $40 by itself or $60 in a bundle with four Big Button pad controllers. Truth be told, we had a lot of fun with the first game, Scene It? Lights, Camera, Action! And any game that draws sketches of construction workers playing with dolls meets our approval.

Also of note, Box Office Smash! is being touted as "the first game to debut with the New Xbox Experience's player Avatars," which can be used as your in-game character. We don't think this is an indication that the New Xbox Experience is coming out this month, as there are likely placeholders available, but it certainly raises an eyeybrow.

Uh the poorman's version of Singstar is Lips, a complete rip-off for the Xbox 360, coming soon.

Neg!
It be Juno. I win!

iFester @ Oct 7th 2008 1:52PM

Notice the Avatars as the players? I've always thought that since this game incorperates them the NXE would have to be online before the games ships. ;)

IanC @ Oct 7th 2008 1:53PM

Yep, getting this for sure! Really enjoyed the first.

Dirty @ Oct 7th 2008 1:56PM

Why did you send me to a SAM tutorial... I thought I had enough of that in my word processing class.

yaksplat @ Oct 7th 2008 2:24PM

Where the hell was the DLC that was promised for the first Scene-it?

Ethan Rom @ Oct 7th 2008 4:22PM

That's what I was wondering. I enjoyed the game but I ran out of questions quick. Nobody will play that game with me now since I've seen all the questions.

Levi @ Oct 7th 2008 5:10PM

I thought Juno was a crappy movie, but I have to admit, that drawing is very cute.

Divya Jain @ Oct 19th 2008 11:00AM

Very good website. I liked it very much. Comments from http://www.valentineday.in

superrrguy @ Oct 26th 2008 1:02AM

God I hate this game. The questions are so stupid. Watch a clip, answer what color the phone was on the wall. Look at a cartoon drawing and name the movie. The worst is the star trek theme beam me in movie scene. How is this trivia. No one wants to play with me because it's so stupid and I kick ass at it!

If I buy the next version and convince friends it's better, will I now have 8 contollers? What happened to downloadable content or a game only pack?
