The reason why I'm saddened by this is not because I know I wont like the game itself. It is the fact that a mear show just because of it's good ratings has not only been made into a movie but now a video game. There are plently more shows out there that deserve to have there own game but this one got at it first only because people like "the show" but that's it. I know they will not buy the game only because they like the show. It's just foolish. Foolish like clowns without honky noses.

That's the second smart thing he's said today. You're always gonna have different opinions.

But then Gonzo (I hope you got that from MTV2 :D) - that's partly what the reason of the forum is - to (mass)debate

:P

People have different opinions - get over it.

If someone has fun playing that game where's the harm? Oh, but I forgot, you know better. You taste is obviously superior so you could tell them how to really have fun. They're obvious not really enjoying themselves because you wouldn't be.

I reckon there's a good chance they'll have that damn Gareth Gates and "light my rapidly extinguishing fire" Will Young on it. If that's the case, there will probably be more girls than boys in high street videogame stores everywhere. Can you imagine searching through the games only to see Will Young on the box? Eurgh. I'll use Mail order during Christmas to avoid the pain.

I wonder what the game has the record for the least selling games, as I'm sure this will beat it.

I'm more disgusted by the fact that today I saw an advert for an SClub movie no less. I thought they were now using children as puppets to sing their songs but I guess they're still around...in movie form.
