I'm not so much into them, but my family loves game shows. My grandparents still watch their favorites. Inspired by their love of shows, my cousin was recently on The Price Is Right as a contestant. I'm sure the fam would dig at least one of Ubisoft's line-up of four game show games, all set to release this fall.
Family Feud 2012 will be released on October 18 for Xbox 360 and Wii. Its challenge mode features host Steve Harvey, and has you going up against 48 families to unlock outtakes.
Hole in the Wall Deluxe Edition is a game where players must contort their bodies to fit through...holes in walls. The walls move toward players. Perfect for a Kinect game. Sounds fun! Hole hits Xbox 360 on November 20.
Who Wants To Be A Millionaire is also a Kinect game, set to release November 1. Hand gestures let you select answers, and the Kinect voice sensor actually lets you give you Final Answer verbally.
Finally, The Price is Right Decades features games from all the decades of the show -- 70s, 80s, 90s and 00s. On November 15 it will be released on Wii and Xbox 360, with the latter featuring Kinect support.

But no seriously, I remember playing Wheel of Fortune on the NES with my old ass grandma 20 years ago, and neither of us being able to beat the computer. This is why you don't let grandma choose your NES games.
I'm totally picking this shit up.
$1, Bob.
[I would get a kinect if the voice commands for this game recognize numbers]
Unless they've gotten their heads out of their ass, I'm not interested. Y'know what's a good game show game, though? Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy! on the Wii. Now THOSE are game show games worth playing.
I don't think I will go for this hole in the wall though. I tried the xbox live arcade hole in the wall, and it was brutal. I was playing with my bro and there were way too many uncomfortable walls that basically force you into some hardcore man on man action on the floor of your xbox room. hahaha. Not fun
That other one millionaire could be ok.. might rent it... that is, if I can find anywhere that still rents games where I live.
...where players must contort their bodies to fit through...holes in walls.
...what the hell? I'm wasting time with these sentences! Somebody chop off my fucking hands!
