It’s news that will be greeted with nothing less than total delight from its hordes of fans – 505 Games has captured the rights to publish a video game based on cherished film licence Grease.
The game, which is being developed by UK outfit Zoe Mode, is being produced in conjunction with Paramount Digital Entertainment (who will also co-publish the title) and will allow players to sing and dance alongside Danny and Sandy using motion controls, microphones and the DS’ touch screen.
“We are really excited about working with Paramount Digital Entertainment to turn this world famous film into a video game for the very first time,” 505 MD Ian Howe stated.



“Working with such a well known and much loved brand is a great opportunity and we believe the collaboration further strengthens 505 Games’ entertainment portfolio.”
Paramount Digital Entertainment’s senior VP of video games John Kavanagh added:
“Paramount Digital Entertainment is pleased to be working with 505 Games to develop Grease. Grease is the ideal opportunity to reach a broad gaming audience who love to sing, dance and have fun with a party-style game.”

Wow, another lame movie licensed game.

I never watched the movie, but I'm guessing this game is nothing more than a Sing-Along with possible the flapping of arms waving the Wii-Remote in all directions.

Yeah, it seems like another generic Wii game that might sell very well but really isn't all too good of a game.
