CBS bringing Diagnosis Murder, some other stuff to gaming platforms

November 4th, 2009 at 06:00am Under Xbox 360

CBS announced today that it’s bringing a wide array of its TV programming to the video game world, mainly via the PC, Wii and DS. As you can see after the break, the company revealed equally insipid-sounding game versions of Survivor, Hollywood Squares, The Amazing Race, and Criminal Minds, but we don’t see how we’re supposed to care about any of it when it was also revealed that a Diagnosis Murder game is in the works.

We’re assuming it’s a Visceral-developed “dark” take on the DM mythos, with a Gothic Dr. Mark Sloan walking a demonic version of Los Angeles, solving murder mysteries with a caduceus-shaped staff dipped in angel blood. We assume this because we laid out the design doc pretty clearly in our letters, and we can’t fathom why CBS would want to disappoint us.

As Seen on TV: Murder, She Wrote and House M.D. games announced

June 10th, 2009 at 07:00am Under DS

Just thirteen years after the conclusion of the television show, Legacy Interactive has snapped up the hot Murder, She Wrote license for a PC game. The hidden-object game will feature five all-new mysteries, and will include both the classic Cabot Cave locale and “well-loved characters from the show” including Dr. Seth Hazlitt, Sheriff Mort Metzger, and, of course, crime-solving novelist and potential distant relative Jessica Fletcher.

Slightly more timely is Legacy’s announcement of PC and DS games based on the House M.D. license. In this game, players will control the members of Dr. House’s diagnostic team, including House himself, in five different cases. According to Legacy, the game will involve diagnosing and treating patients with rare diseases. It is unknown whether this process will involve breaking into their houses, as it always does on the show.
