Take-Two's Global Star Software and Endemol USA announced today that the Deal or No Deal PC game, based on the hit TV show, is now available at retailers throughout North America. Deal or No Deal for PC is hosted by Howie Mandel and has a suggested retail price of $19.99.
In addition to replicating the TV show, Deal or No Deal for PC contains a customization mode that allows users to create their own family-friendly prizes in the briefcases instead of money. Examples include "Make My Bed" or "A Night at the Movies," adding an extra element of relevancy to gamers at home who can play for the most coveted prize of all - bragging rights.
A combined 48 million people tuned in for the Deal or No Deal program during the Season Premiere Week Event. The show remains a ratings triumph for NBC and is an anchor of the network's fall lineup.
The Deal or No Deal game will be highlighted on a special "Deal or No Deal Thanksgiving Extravaganza" episode to air on NBC this November 23, 2006. The famous Deal or No Deal models will hand out copies of the game during the broadcast and everyone in the audience will receive a complimentary copy.
Rated E for Everyone, Deal or No Deal is licensed in conjunction with the Joy Tashjian Licensing Group and the game was developed by Cat Daddy Games, a Take-Two development studio.
