Lights! Camera! Action! The EA™ Interactive Label of Electronic
Arts Inc. (NASDAQ:ERTS) today announced the launch of FAMILY GAME
NIGHT 4: The Game Show, giving families the ability to recreate the
larger-than-life fun of the popular Hub Network’s FAMILY GAME NIGHT
television game show in their own living rooms. The newest version
of the award-winning video game series delivers five exciting
Hasbro games, including: BOP IT! Boptagon, SCRABBLE Flash, CONNECT
4 Basketball, SORRY! Sliders and YAHTZEE! Bowling. FAMILY GAME
NIGHT 4: The Game Show is now available for the Wii™, Xbox 360®
videogame and entertainment system, and PlayStation®3 computer
entertainment system. It also supports Kinect™ for Xbox 360 and
PlayStation® Move.
“FAMILY GAME NIGHT 4: The Game Show brings the excitement of a
TV game show to living rooms and lets families interact with their
favorite Hasbro games as they never have before,” said Chip Lange,
General Manager and Senior Vice President of EA’s Hasbro Division.
“With new twists and gameplay designed to take advantage of Kinect,
Move and Nintendo Wii MotionPlus controls, FAMILY GAME NIGHT 4: The
Game Show will have players doing everything from bowling and
shooting baskets to high-fiving as they compete for the big
win.”
FAMILY GAME NIGHT 4: The Game Show adds up to non-stop fun for
family and friends as they experience new ways to play five
well-known games, inspired by The Hub television series. In BOP IT!
Boptagon opponents need to stay on beat and quickly replicate a
sequence of unique verbs shouted at them. In SCRABBLE Flash, a
nimble mind is needed to rearrange five tiles to create as many
words as possible while racing against the clock. Strategy blended
with basketball action comes into play in CONNECT 4 Basketball as
players must shoot balls into the CONNECT 4 grid to be the first to
get four in a row for the win! Tight teamwork is called upon in
SORRY! Sliders as players push huge game pieces into the bulls-eye,
while the perfect alleyway approach and ball release is the winning
combination in YAHTZEE! Bowling.
“EA has a stellar track record of creating intensely fun and
fresh compilations of Hasbro game brands that bring families and
friends together for hours of entertainment,” said Mark Blecher,
Senior Vice President and General Manager of Digital Media and
Marketing at Hasbro. “The introduction of the game show element in
FAMILY GAME NIGHT 4: The Game Show will take this innovative series
to a new level of play that fans will rally around in a big way
this holiday season.”
Separately, EA also has three family-oriented Hasbro-branded
bundles hitting shelves just in time for the holidays, including
TRIVIAL PURSUIT Bet You Know It, MONOPOLY Collection, and the
HASBRO FAMILY GAME NIGHT Fun Pack. TRIVIAL PURSUIT Bet You Know It
