Title: Donald Trump is a blight upon our society. Post by: Shockeye on May 16, 2005, 05:08:31 PM Quote from: Reuters Trump to star in 'Apprentice' video game (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/7877126/) ‘We think we've gotten the hair right’ Game players will assume the role of a hopeful contestant for a job with Trump. LOS ANGELES - Already the king of the boardroom, Donald Trump could seize full control of the living room thanks to an upcoming video game based on his hit reality TV show, "The Apprentice". Game developer Legacy Interactive said on Monday it plans to turn the NBC reality TV program into a video game that allows gamers to assume the role of a hopeful contestant for a job with real estate baron Trump. Trump advisors George Ross and Carolyn Kepcher will also play roles in the game as contestants navigate through corporate challenges, boardroom conflicts as well as potential romances. Slated for release in autumn 2006, the game will be available for Microsoft Corp.'s Xbox console, Sony Corp.'s PlayStation Portable handheld system and PCs. A simpler PC version will be released this fall, Legacy said. Vivendi Universal Games, a unit of Vivendi Universal, will publish the game. Vivendi Universal also has a stake in NBC Universal, a joint venture with General Electric Co. The Los Angeles-based game developers said they paid special attention to simulating Trump —the well-known top of his head. "It starts with the hair, and we think we've gotten the hair right," said Legacy Interactive Chief Executive Ariella Lehrer. I'm glad a simpler version will come out for the PC because those console games are so damn confusing. Douchebags, all. Title: Re: Donald Trump is a blight upon our society.

Although I think I used the phrase 'boil on the ass of society' instead.

Post by: HaemishM on May 17, 2005, 08:07:17 AM Wow, I wouldn't be a contestant on that show in real life for actual real money, why the fuck would I want to pay for a video game that doesn't even give me the hope of any actual return besides interactive timesinks?

I'm sure that was printed for the benefit of their pre-K readers. Title: Re: Donald Trump is a blight upon our society. Post by: Merusk on May 19, 2005, 08:42:56 AM I can't disagree with his assement that the winning design is an 'egghead' design. I didn't much care for it, out of the ones that were on the short list. For those of us who don't recall what they look like, here you go.

I'd rather see a rebuilt WTC than Daniel Libeskind's object d'art, but then I don't much care for Libeskind's aesthetics anyway. Deconstructionists make me see red.
