    Smash Bros. Champ Joins Survivor Cast

    Did you realize that the television show Survivor was a going concern among television viewers? I certainly didn't, having completely given up on network television after those bastards decided to cancel Journeyman after one partial season, which is why I had no idea that the one of the cast members for the latest season of Survivor is professional gamer Ken Hoang, the current international champion of Nintendo's Super Smash Brothers Melee. Survivor: Gabon premiers on September 25th, when we'll get to see Ken put his gaming skills to the test in the very physical competition. More »

Brash Entertainment, known for their movie adaptations like Jumper and Alvin and the Chipmunks, are working on the title. Kotaku first learned about the possibility of a Prison Break game during an interview last November with Robert Knepper, who plays T-Bag on the series. More »

    Game Center CX Probably Coming To DVD (This Time In English!)

    Brilliant Japanese game/gaming show Game Center CX is appearing at the New York Asian Film Festival. Great news for New Yorkers, not so great news for the rest of us. What is great to hear is that the show's DVD box set is currently being given English subtitles, with the distributors saying they are "now looking for a US [distributor] for them". Can't imagine it'd be too hard finding one. And then...well, like Spencer over at Siliconera says, it mightn't be too long before we get the Game Center CX game localised as well.

    Rachel Ray Gives Away 360s

    I think I need to start attending TV talk show tapings, just in case my Xbox 360 fails. First Ellen, and now the oddly adorable Rachel Ray of Food Network fame gives out Microsoft's console to her audience. This time around it's an Xbox 360 Arcade system, complete with the family free quiz game Scene-It, which is just amazing until everyone memorizes the questions, just like the real game! All of this from the woman who got paid so you could watch her travel around the world eating food, which I would do completely free but probably without half as much spunk. Thanks to Kotakuite Gerald, who apparently has time to sit around watching daytime television with his camera close by!

    Mario Kart Korean TV, Serious Business

    Sure, Korean TV has Starcraft shows. That shouldn't come as a surprise. The country has been playing Starcraft for years! But Mario Kart racing programs?

The show features in-game footage and color commentary from the announcers. Impressive! More »

    Ubisoft Knows All The Lost Secrets

    I like Lost. The wife and I rent the DVDs (she needs subtitles) and watch 'em together. As Stephen Totilo at MTV Multiplayer pointed out, if you don't like Lost, you probably won't be interested in this post. MTV sat down with Ubisoft to check out upcoming Lost game adaptation Lost: Via Domus, which the game's co-writer Kevin Shortt walked Totilo through. Lost, of course, is famous for its mysterious WTF plotline. In making this game, Shortt became privy to that. He says: More »

    Discovery Channel to Air 5 Hour Videogame Documentary

    Today the Discovery Channel announced that it's going to air a five-hour prime time documentary entitled "Rise of the Videogame." It covers the entire history of the industry and has interviews with the likes of Ralph Baer, David Jaffe, Will Wright, Peter Molyneux and even some now-obscure names like Ken and Roberta Williams, the founders of Sierra Online. I should disclose that I wrote the treatment for this show and served as a producer on it alongside World of Wonder (the company behind Inside Deep Throat). As opposed to a standard "History Of" documentary, the series takes a look at how the social and political climate shaped games and game designers in the 70s through present day. The first episode will premiere on Wednesday, November 21 at 8 PM (ET/PT) with new episodes to follow every Wednesday night through December 19th. If you want more details on each episode, you can read the press release after the jump. More »

    Mass Effect Special Coming to SCI FI One Day Late

    Until Mass Effect is released on Nov. 20th and faces our impossibly high geek expectations, we can only comb over press releases for nuggets of missed goodness. That's how we realized that we'd completely missed the announcement that SCI FI, who has partnered like crazy with the game already, will be airing the 30-minute special Sci vs. Fi: Mass Effect on launch day. As we willingly inject ourselves with advertisement for a game we could otherwise be playing, we'll see:
    ...more in-depth information about the game, exclusive interviews and exciting behind-the scenes footage.
    While this is a really neat idea and many of us will still tune in (via DVR), why wouldn't SCI FI run the special before we're playing the game, like on the 19th? More »

    'The Office' Gets Second Lifed

    After having some fun at Call of Duty's expense (in a way that I thought was both funny and not playing off Hollywood stereotypes), NBC's The Office is taking on Second Life later tonight. It looks like Dwight K. Schrute will be exploring the virtual world, hopefully without any encounters with snap-on genitalia. I have high hopes, so this had better be really funny.
