Emeril Hosts Atlantic City Stadium Show — Sort Of
Don't enjoy amateur cooks facing off on TV? Maybe you'll have different sentiments if you're watching them in person. At least, that's what Emeril Lagasse is hoping as he launches his new Atlantic City game show: Taste of Emeril's Cooking Challenge.
Buzz In: What's Your Favorite Game Show of All Time?
While we've been busy trying to tackle all the awesome new series of the Fall, the networks are still adding fresh shows to their slates. NBC's most recent pickup is a new game show called Perfect 10, where contestants are challenged to quickly finish regular household chores for a chance to win a million dollars. Sounds simple enough, but so did Are you Smarter than a Fifth Grader.
The Price Is Right Psych-Out
Someone didn't study The Price Is Right strategy book before appearing on the show. When it came time to participate in the price war, she failed to maximize her bid, and — omigod — she won! She won!
Game Show Contestants Say the Darndest Things!
Remember the game show contestants who scored big thanks to dumb luck? Well, factor out the luck and all we had was a whole bunch of dumb — which is the case with the following vid. The contestants below were under cruel time constraints, so their thinking was probably rushed and compromised.
D'oh! Game Show Moments
When the clock is ticking and the cameras are rolling, the pressure to think quickly can make a contestant give the darndest answer, reveal a dirty little secret, or altogether blank out— on her husband's name. The following game show moments are so funny, "I think I'll have to take a P," Chuck. Har, har, har!
More Crazy Japanese Game Shows
This actually looks fun. In what I'll call the "Clear or No Clear" game, players must leap through a cut-out shape on a quickly approaching wall to the other side. If they don't make it to the other side, they will be shoved into a shallow pool of water.
Get Ready to Play Even More TV Game Shows
Whether it's because of the possible Hollywood writers' strike, the success of "Are You Smarter than a Fifth Grader?" or something else, this television season is beginning to look like the Year of the Primetime Game Show. At the head of the trend is now-legendary reality producer Mark Burnett, but he's not the only one with game shows on the brain.

WaSaBi Designer Console Skins: Love or Leave?
I caught these designer console skins from WaSaBi while cruising the merch area at this year's Tokyo Game Show, and spent about ten minutes trying to decide on whether or not to splurge. I'm kind of loving the cherry blossom theme on the right, but I can't tell if it would take away from the natural and minimalist feel of the Wii, and/or clash with the rest of my decor. The other designs are pretty sweet too but still, I've never been one to mod my consoles, even if it's with a $20 skin.
TGS 2009: Nintendo Announces Wii Price Drop
You may not be able to get your hands on the black Wii console like the Japanese — I got a chance to see it up close while in Japan this week and can attest to its sexiness — but soon you can get yourself a regular ol' white one for a little less dough.
Announced at this year's Tokyo Game Show, the Wii will be available for $200 starting this Sunday. Perfect timing for the holiday shopping season (and assumed holiday shortage), Nintendo is aligning itself with the entry-level Xbox 360, which while coming in at the same price, boasts lots more features (like Netflix streaming for example).
The Tokyo Game Show Kicks Off Tomorrow!
Fall is the best time of year for games, not only because it's crunch time for holiday releases, but because of all the yearly gaming conferences! And the biggest one of the year is about to start — the Tokyo Game Show!
Although I couldn't travel to the Land of the Rising Sun for the annual game blowout, I'll still be doing my best impression of being there to round up all the hot and juicy gaming news this expo has to offer.
