The Dog Whisperer discusses his future in games
Games that let you pretend to care for dogs are nothing new, but there's been a dearth of games that really let you pretend to talk to dogs. Where are the games that let you get right down on their level and say "Hey. Hey there, dog. I may be a small Hispanic man, and you may have a brain the size of an underripe lemon, but I'm your brother."? Our one hope is Ceaser Millan, host of National Geographic TV program The Dog Whisperer who recently released DS and PC games. Well, he didn't release them. But you get the idea.
Thankfully for us, he's not done. Millan talked with Reuters about his future games, saying "I feel that we started with something very general like fear, separation anxiety, hyperactivity and obsession/fixation with this first game, but I would like to move into advanced games down the line once people understand more about animal behavior."
Our favorite quote from the story? "In fact, it was Nintendo game developer Shigeru Miyamoto's Nintendogs virtual puppy simulation for Nintendo DS a few years back that prompted Millan to enter the virtual world." ... We think we speak for everyone when we say no shit.
