NBC’s The Office is getting a video game. Will a Pam and Jim date be a game option? What about adventures in Dwight’s beet farm? Just a day as Michael Scott would be amusing.
Interesting way to expand gaming to nontraditional audiences. We used episodes of the show in several of my classes (negotiations, crisis communication) because it just magnifies experiences that anyone who has had a job can relate too. Since videogames trend towards the young and male, will programs like this expand their demographic?
If other games like this come out, I may have to upgrade from my Super Nintendo. (I so wish I had a Nintendo Power Pad! Who needs a Wii?)
