ysbreker Posted March 31, 2006 Either the coolest game to be made for the revolution or a april's fools joke you wish were true: Bob Ross Inc. has announced in March 2006 that they have filed a letter of intent to license to Joseph Hatcher's AGFRAG Entertainment Group to develop exclusively worldwide video/computer games based on Bob Ross' creative, unique and easy to learn painting techniques and TV show properties. The Bob Ross video game, currently untitled, is planned to be developed for PC, the Nintendo DS handheld & on Nintendo's next-gen system coming later this year, code named Revolution. Release date was not announced. AGFRAG is currently seeking a publisher. Full press release here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tanukitsune Posted April 1, 2006 Sounds like an April Fool's prank to me... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PolloDiablo Posted April 1, 2006 Okay, here's the story. Two moderators of the FOK!forum originally thought of this game during a brainstorm session in early March -- http://forum.fok.nl/topic/826161/4/25#35779413 it's their mockup. Someone then picked this up over at GAF http://ga-forum.com/showthread.php?t=89166 This was then picked up by an editor from EGM for their Art section. IGN posted it, several other sites picked it up, etc etc. How and when bobross.com and adfrag got involved is not sure - they sure never contacted or credited the FOK!forum moderators.

Marek Posted April 6, 2006 Actually, this game is real. It's not a prank. The FOK! community came up with fake boxart independently of a real Bob Ross game being made. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
