SOE and Gamebryo bring game shows to PSN


Who wants to be a millionaire? Today, Sony Online Entertainment and Gamebryo announced a partnership that will bring games based on game show IPs to the PS Network. Gamebryo technology, used in games like Civilization IV and Oblivion, will be used to cut down on development time. "Gamebryo gives us a great deal of flexibility in creating downloadable titles for the PlayStation Network," said Shalom Mann, Senior Vice President, SOE. "The codebase provides an solid foundation for our Downloadable Games Framework that allows us to bring a variety of different types of games to the PlayStation Network in a fraction of the time had we coded the base engine ourselves."

No titles have been officially revealed, but we're hoping for some familiar shows like The Price is Right or Deal or No Deal. The games will be released before Game Developer's Conference next month.
